You gave the Get and Use verbs to /obj twice. You probably meant to give them to /obj/sword and /obj/shield. Indent the lines under sword and shield like this:
<code> obj sword icon = 'sword.dmi' verb Get() set src in oview(1) src.Move(usr) Use(mob/M in oview()) HP() obj shield icon = 'shield.dmi' verb Get() set src in oview(1) src.Move(usr) Use(mob/M in oview()) M.Defense +=10 </code>
That will still have an error with <code> HP() </code>, but I'm not sure what you want that to do. It thinks you are caling a proc, but there is no HP() proc. Maybe you wanted to have it change someone's HP var, but you'd have to say M.HP instead of HP.

I am not sure what you want the use verb to do, but DreamMaker thinks you are trying to call a proc called <code>HP()</code>. It thinks that because you put the <code>()</code> after it. Maybe you want something like <code>M.HP -= 10</code>. If you just want to change the mob's HP var, then you don't need the double parenthesis.

i want it so that it takes an amount away from the person you are attacking

and also, i removed the () and made it so that
M.HP -= 10 , but then i got tutor.dm:27:error:M.HP:undefined var

That is because you haven't defined mob/HP.
