(Pun-Puns, Iaijutsu masters, and Hukling Hurlers need not apply.) The point is not just to get AC up - it is to build a perfectly functioning character who also happens to have a really high AC.  I probably shouldn't have to explain this, but that is a classic desired result of build-tweaking - to have a build that is just as good as someone else's in most fields, but also has more saves, more hit points, more spell slots, etc. without giving up anything that is significant in regular gameplay.This is not an idle exercise in calculation, and neither is its purpose ego-inflation.  Notes from other players indicate that the maximum theoretical AC at each level should be above the ceiling I have hit, and I want to know how to get there.</blockquote>
