Message: <blockquote data-quote="Quixoticelixir" data-source="post: 5923676" data-attributes="member: 6694618">... that my character isn't the kind of guy to wear armor, his AC would be equal to his Dexterity modifier, right? In previous editions, wearing no armor was somewhat safe to do, since you automatically got to add 10 to your AC. In the play test of D&D Next, it doesn't quite work that way (it seems that the AC bonus provided by armors incorperate this 'old' bonus of 10 in their usual armor bonus). This would mean that almost every creature would be able to hit my character, provided they rolled 2-3 or higher on their d20. Is this correct?Hopefully, I'm missing something. Otherwise, it would be catastrophic to be attacked when you're not wearing armor - whenever you sleep, for instance.</blockquote>
