I'm thinking maybe you take the leadership feat and have several followers equipped with rings of blinking (and fire immunity) who then grapple Mr. AC; if a grappled opponent is immobilized, this will get rid of the pesky monk bonus to AC.By my count, so far we're ignore 115 points of AC, counting only armor, natural armor, dodge, haste, and dex bonuses.    I'm thinking he gets to keep his cha bonus from mystic wanderer, sadly.Ooh!  Ooh!  A better tactic.This time you're a cleric using shuriken coated with dragon bile.  This is a contact poison, DC 26, that does 3d6 points of str damage.  You can fire off 15 of these/round; within the first three rounds, you're likely to have two of them succeed at least on touch attacks.  Drop the poor fellow to 0 strength, and then CDG.If you want this strategy to be even better, take the leadership feat.  At 20th level, you can easily have 163 followers, all fighters, each of them with exotic weapon proficiency (shuriken), point blank shot, and rapid shot.  That means that each round, poor Mr. AC will be facing 978 shuriken.  One in 20 of those will hit poor Mr. AC, meaning that he'll take 48 points of damage/round, most likely.  And if half of them are poisoned, that means he'll need to make 24 saves, DC26, against a 3d6 STR poison.You, of course, are delaying your action.  Once the last of your minions has gone, you take an MEA action to move next to poor O STR Mr. AC, and then you CDG.  Power attacking.  Using a miner's pick.  Coated in black lotus extract.If it matters, you've cast tenser's transformation, righteous might, divine favor, greater magic weapon, and whatever other spells are appropriate to increase your damage.  And you have the strength domain. And, of course, you're hasted.I'm guessing that poor Mr. AC wouldn't survive long in this arena battle.Daniel(I'm also thinking that you weren't intending followers to participate in this battle, but hey -- that wasn't against the rules! <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f600.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":D" title="Big grin    :D"  data-smilie="8"data-shortname=":D" />)</blockquote>
