Compilation of AC Boosts

[KarinsDad]

I was wondering at all of the different ways to boost AC.

Please list any PrC ability, feat, or magic item that boosts AC.

I'll start with:

Gloves of Dexterity
Vow of Poverty

Dodge
Combat Expertise
Ring of Protection
Bracers of Armor

you might do better listing the type of AC bonuses one can get and finding items that fill that.

You missed the Invisible Blade and Duelist PrCs.

Actually, I am putting together a future Cohort for my wife's Paladin (she will be taking the Leadership feat at level 9).

He will be a Cleric of her deity, but will be 7th level to her 9th (and at higher levels, even further apart) and I was planning on a race with a level adjustment, so the character will be even more levels behind. Hence, very low hit points. So, I was looking for ways to boost his AC as much as possible in order for him to survive.
