Casting alter-self and changing into Troglodyte form for adventures can net you a higher AC that some of your fighters.Here's the breakdown for an 8th level wizard (who usually has about 27,000 gp, and should have the Craft wondrous item feat):1) Alter self: Trog form, +6 AC2) Mage Armor: +4 AC3) Amulet of Natural armor +1: about 1060 gp to make yourself4) Ring of protection +1: 2000 gp5) Gauntlets of dex +2 (gives +1 AC): 2000 gp to make yourself6) Mithral buckler +2 (+3 AC): 5015 gp (has no penalty for a wizard)7) Dusty rose Ioun stone +1 AC: 2500 gp to make yourself8) Dex 16: +3 ACTotal: 30 AC, 12,575 gp(Another option is to cast magic circle of protection against evil during adventures instead of using a ring of protection. This would net you a higher AC vs. evil creatures and would save you money)</blockquote>
