Using spells, whats the best AC?

[Darklone]

... right and Barkskin stacks with natural armor since 3.5...

Where can we get a luck bonus to AC from?

Prayer would help, but only indirectly.

 

[Heckler]

At 8th level, Spiderskin would give you a +2 bonus to your nat. armor.

Though, if Dragonskin is not allowed, this may not be either.

If you're worried about getting hit, concealment, cover, and miss chances are your friends.

The Dusty rose Ioun stone will provide a +1 Insight bonus, but that's not a spell.

Taking the Otherworldly feat will make you an outsider so you can Alter Self into a Dwarf Ancestor and get +18 Natural Armor (+21 w/ Barkskin). Though, some consider this debatable.

 

[Veril]

Alter Self: Natural AC 6
Barkskin: +3 Natural AC (druid spell)
Shield of Faith: +3 Deflection AC (@ 9th caster level)
Luminous Armor, Greater: +8 Armour Ac
Shield: +4 Shield
Haste +1 AC
Silverbeard: +2 Sacred AC (paladin spell)
Cats Grace: +2 AC (from increased Dex
Reduce Person +1 from Size AC, +1 from Dex AC
--------------

Total: +31AC -> AC41.

What about reduce person, you get an extra ac for being smaller, no?

Luck of Heroes, feat from FRCS, gives a +1 luck bonus to AC and saves. Not a spell, in a story based gae it would be easy enough to say the guy researched it.

What's debatable about it? Seems perfectly valid under the rules to me.

Thanks for pointing it out - I'll add altering self into an ancestor to my campaign's list of things PCs and NPCs are not allowed to do.

Ah i like that a lot. Exactly the type of thing i was looking for. It think the Ancestral Dwarf will be a tough sell. The poly/alter spells are limited by what has been seen and experienced in the realm.. Havnt come across those guys yet
