That said, here's what might happen in a game without the higher echelons of AC.<ul> <li data-xf-list-type="ul"> HPs become more important. People will take Toughness feats and the like. </li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul"> Barbarians and monks become more important, since these begin to reach high AC's. To a lesser extent, eldritch knights with mage armor play a bigger role, too. </li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul"> Ranged combat becomes highlighted. Folks will use more javelins, more bows. </li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul"> You'll see fewer defensive fighters, tanky paladins, and protective clerics. More archery fighters, strikey paladins, and robed clerics.</li> </ul>...all of this seems perfectly thematic for an Ancient Greece setting, so I might just go with it. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" /> I'd allow multiclassing, though, so someone who wanted to pick up a levels of barbarian or monk for the AC boost could without much of a problem.</blockquote>
