Fun thread, moritheil!
....but that's not what caught my interest in your original statement on the other thread. The bit that caught my eye was the word "easy". (Call it semantics if you'd like - you'll get no argument from me on that point.) Writing the word "easy" implies many things: widely known, simply reached, broadly accepted.
Your example, OTOH, relies on a specific build that is none of those things. Hence, it is not "easy".
Fun? Sure, why not.
BTW, if you had started this thread as a form of interesting guessing-game, you might have gotten less acrimonious replies. .....and, just as assuredly, fewer replies.
And we could find more high AC builds on the WotC optimization board.moritheil said:

Wow! Two and a half hours and already 50 posts - most of them negative.
Maybe we should start a poll to determine whether the OP is a Troll or a time-waster?
Like many others who read these forums, I enjoy reading threads where someone has put in a great deal of thought to a build and is willing to share it, and have it validated or improved upon with suggestions from other posters. This dangling of an idea with no willingness to share is not in the spirit of this community and shows poor form.
And I scoff at any build that depends on polymorph into a creature with +20 natural armor by 6th level...... obviously broken and obviously not "easy". Typically, standard creatures with that sort of natural armor are in the CR12+ bracket, and certainly have a large number of hit die. So anything introduced in a supplement that moves substantially away from that benchmark is pretty clearly a bit of joke.
