It doesn't destroy the weapon, it takes of durability, and since NPC weapons don't have durability, the armor is pointless against NPCs, and you're better off not wasting all that gulduril. It's also reall pointless against players, because what idiot goes to war on a server with a highly damaged weapon? By the time the damaging effect actually counts for something, you'll be dead!
