Can AC get worse than 10?

[Emirikol]

Easy. Take any Huge creature with no natural armor bonus, and knock it out.
AC against melee attacks:
Total: -1.-Hyp.

The real question: could there be a character who couldn't hit that AC? What would that take?

jh

No, because regardless of his penalties, he'll still hit on a 20.

-Hyp.

 

[James McMurray]

0 BAB (can be gotten at 20th level if you try really hard)
-5 strength of 1
-8 greater curse
-4 prone
-2 cursed sword

-19 to hit.

I'm sure there's a -2 somewhere I'm missing. There's probably another -4 somewhere that would be constant instead of the prone thing. I'm not sure if Curse and Greater Curse stack, but if they do that would fit the bill.

Assorted conditions - dazzled, frightened, sickened...

-Hyp.

What about permanent effects. If we're going to go that low, it might as well be done with a character that would have the problem 24/7, not just in bright light near ghasts.

Chop off his stronger or more dextrous hand.

-Hyp.

 

[Hypersmurf]

Huh. I knew this had been done before.

I'd forgotten it was me...

-Hyp.

Easy. Stun him.

 

[Darklone]

Blind would help too.

Edit: Duh... can you believe I posted the same wrong thing in the same old thread?

Make it a weapon they're not proficient with thats oversized.
