The jacket, is in effect a regular piece of clothing with an armor enchantment bonus on it.
...and as long as he havn't said anything about character-creation rules, I'll just play around

Monk/dervish levels switched around.
Keen & Vorpal switched places, and I've had Weapon Focus (Kama) All along.

Ya, I kinda noticed that after the fact.

sad to say it guy, you can only add armor enhancements to actual armor. Which means you can't use it as a monk. Btw, what is soulfire?

Ah, not exactly, Look at the bracers of armor. Soulfire is a +4bonus armor enchantment from BoeD.

And therin lies my point. While you could take bracers of armor, they can't be enhanced with armor only properties like soulfire.

Ah, then I'd have to find some other way to be immune to death effects etc.

Anyway, I just spoke with some of the guys over at the WotC board..

As far as I know, as long as the item itself doesn't have anl armor bonus(like a silk shirt would have an AC bonus of +0) you can enchant it similar to armor and grant yourself an AC bonus. Hasn't this been recently brought up on the Faerun boards? And there are shirts similar to this that give damage reduction, in the MH.

I'm not sure myself, heh.

I'm almost positive I've seen a sidebar about putting armor bonuses on bracers of armor, but I admit I haven't found it yet. When I find it I'll help you out.

Like the guy you quoted said though, you enchant it similar to armor with an AC bonus. But since it is not armor (or else you couldn't wear it), It can't be enchanted with armor only magical abilities.

Ok, nevermind anyway, I removed the jacket thingie and made it a bracers of armor instead

There it is, Page 130 of the Arms & Equipment Guide:

Bracers of Armor and Armor Special Abilities
A character who has the Craft Magic Arms and Armor and Craft Wondrous Item feats, as well as mage armor and all the other prerequisites necessary can add the armor special abilities shown on Table 8-6 in the Dungeon Master's Guide(ed. 3.0)to a set of bracers of armor. The cost is the same as for adding a special ability to normal armor: an increase in the effective bonus of the bracers.

(more follows, but I'm lazy)
