As always, the Sage Advice Compendium has also been updated with this information. This month, Jeremy discusses how to calculate creature ACs, and how spells like [I]mage armor, barkskin, amor of Agates[/I], and [I]heroism[/I] work. Interestingly, it also contains a reconsidered ruling on how barkskin and shields work, and an update to his previous ruling one the Savage Attacker feat.[PRBREAK][/PRBREAK] Find [URL="http://dnd.wizards.com/articles/features/rules-answers-january-2016"]the full column here[/URL] and the full compiled [URL="http://media.wizards.com/2015/downloads/dnd/SA_Compendium.pdf"]Sage Advice Compendium PDF[/URL] here.
