D&D General (2024) Is it just me or has Unarmored Defense become really common, now?

[Greg K]

Once you go down the path of "Any Stat Can Be Used to Attack" why not go down the next path over about defense.

Also I don't love it.

But at some point we need a unarmed defense based of a strength. "Pecks of Steel" or "Rock Hard Abs"

or, for simplicity, Iron Body/shirt training from several martial arts styles.
