[QUOTE="Aluvial, post: 2797315, member: 6862"] I'm taking the same road as this poster. My 8 characters at 20th level have AC's that are 29 to 43. Hitting a 43 is nigh impossible for the average encounter (which is a 10 to 11 CR critter in my world). I really didn't record their AC's at 10th, and my other group has just now reached 4th (AC's between 16 and 20). What I originally wanted to post about was the fact that there was a LOT of Mithral being reported in the thread. I must apoligize that this is slightly off the topic. I think the prevelence of Mithral in this thread, especially for 10th level characters is way too much. I don't believe that 1/4 to 13 of the posters should have Mithral armor, it should not be that prevelent, and seems to be only being used by the Min-Maxer. I would expect that in a group of 100 PC's, with an appropriate racial break-down, say 8% elves, that only half of them should have Mithral anything. That's 4 out of 100. To allow Mithral to become so prevelent in the game universe is a mistake, especially for mid-level PC's. Same holds true of Adamantine and other 'special' materials. Although I like the concept of templated materials A LOT, I don't think that they should be frequently used at all in the average campaign world. Aluvial [/QUOTE]
