[QUOTE="konki63, post: 4081437, member: 60957"] Hello everyone, first post here, I have been trying to find the Armor Bonus from each character of the D&D4 experience sheets but it's a long time I haven't played D&D so I may be completly wrong with the rules (almost haven't played since AD&D2 with Skills & Powers, I have read D&D3 a long time ago but I only played once due to lack of DM) I need your help to fill the holes or correct me if I am completly missing something. Thks Dext or Int: Possible Wizard- None ---- AC15 Vs. Base10 (Dex+2) -Int+5- Shield+0 ==> AC15 = AC15 + None ---- 0 Seems OK (Maybe confirms Int as AC bonus) Warlock Leather - AC15 Vs. Base10 (Dex+0) -Int+2- Shield+0 ==> AC15 = AC12 + Leather - 3 ? Ranger- Hide ---- AC17 Vs. Base10 -Dex+4- (Int+1) Shield+0 ==> AC17 = AC14 + Hide ---- 3 ? Cleric- Chainmail AC16 Vs. Base10 (Dex+0) -Int+1- Shield+0 ==> AC16 = AC11 + Chainmail 5 ? Fighter Scale ---- AC19 Vs. Base10 -Dex+1- (Int+0) Shield+2 ==> AC19 = AC13 + Scale --- 6 ? Paladin Plate ---- AC20 Vs. Base10 -Dex+1- (Int-1) Shield+2 ==> AC20 = AC13 + Plate --- 7 ? (Maybe Plate 6 & Small Size +1) The only problem is Leather is the same as Hide, but it's not impossible. Dext Only: Impossible Wizard- None ---- AC15 Vs. Base10 Dex+2 Shield+0 ==> AC15 = AC12 + None ---- 3 Impossible (+3 from nowhere) Warlock Leather - AC15 Vs. Base10 Dex+0 Shield+0 ==> AC15 = AC10 + Leather - 5 Impossible (Leather would be much higher than Hide) Ranger- Hide ---- AC17 Vs. Base10 Dex+4 Shield+0 ==> AC17 = AC14 + Hide ---- 3 ? Cleric- Chainmail AC16 Vs. Base10 Dex+0 Shield+0 ==> AC16 = AC10 + Chainmail 6 Unlikely (Chainmail would be equivalent to Scale) Fighter Scale ---- AC19 Vs. Base10 Dex+1 Shield+2 ==> AC19 = AC13 + Scale --- 6 ? Paladin Plate ---- AC20 Vs. Base10 Dex+1 Shield+2 ==> AC20 = AC13 + Plate --- 7 ? (Maybe Plate 6 & Small Size +1) Edit1: Replaced Double Space by - to save formatting Edit2: Typo [/QUOTE]
