[QUOTE="cignus_pfaccari, post: 1642731, member: 14557"] Hrm. That's not what the Dodge bonus text states, and I quote from my PHB: By my reading of that, that means that, in this situation, if the rogue has sufficient levels to have regular Uncanny Dodge, the Dodge bonus to AC is not lost; after all, his Dex bonus isn't negated by the invisibility, so the dodge bonuses will still count. Were the wraith and fighter flanking, then yes, he would be denied his Dex bonus (assuming he didn't have Improved Uncanny Dodge), but that wasn't specified. That trying to use rules you're not familiar with will lead to errors? ;) I certainly think so; like I mentioned earlier, I've used Mobility very few times. As I think back, my DM and I totally misapplied it when I did use it. (But, I don't think my character died as a result, and, if it did, well, that's what the Raise Deads and True Reses were for!) I believe that at least some, if not most of the AC issues people have, especially spellcasters, is that the user isn't quite as familiar with the ability/feat/spell/item in question as they could be. I'll admit that my knowledge of D&D magic is mostly limited to buffing, booming, and band-aids, and I don't have the inclination or temperment to play a wizard to figure out all the other neat things you could do.
