This is the result:The end result is that only ONE type of bonus from each category (internal and external) applies to a given number. For example, you can have size, armor, and natural armor bonuses to AC, but only dodge and deflection in addition. I also ruled that natural armor bonuses don't stack - if you have existing natural armor and slap on an amulet, it won't work unless it's better than what you have.Oh yeah, and spell DCs are based on 10 + 1/2 caster level + spell level - this mitigates the need for stat-boosting items (they're still nice for bonus spells, but not necessary to boost DCs).</blockquote>
