[QUOTE="Oofta, post: 7147505, member: 6801845"] Only an 23? In my wife's (soon to end, sadly) campaign I'm low man on the totem pole because my character can "only" get to a 24 AC when I use my Shield spell. :) But yes, high ACs can get a little silly. Personally for my campaign, I've decided that flavor is more fun than pluses anyway. A shield that was crafted from sun touched metal that glows on command and once per day casts the DayLight spell may not be any more powerful than a driftglobe, but for the paladin that worships a god of the sun it has more flavor than just a "+1 shield". In addition I may add other features as the characters get to a higher level, and the character begins to understand how to use the full power of the item. So later on it may gain the ability to shine so bright that it blinds opponents when the daylight is first activated. [/QUOTE]
