Armour Class Bonus Stacking
In the table below, the number shown thus: (+x) is the
theoretical maximum bonus that I believe is currently possible in Dragon
Mountain at level 40. All bonuses listed on separate lines within an AC bonus
type either: "all stack", "stack up to xx cap", or "do not stack" as indicated.
Base AC (all stack)
· Armour (0 for none to 8 for full plate)
· Shield (1 small, 2 large, 3 tower)
Armour AC bonuses (do not stack)
· Armour (+10)
· Bracers (+10)
· Mage Armour (+1)
Shield AC bonuses
· Shield (+10)
Deflection AC bonuses (do not stack)
· Cloak (+10)
· Ring (+10)
· Helm (+10)
· Gauntlets (+10)
· Mage Armour (+1)
Natural AC bonuses (do not stack)
· Amulet (+10)
· Barkskin (+5)
· Mage Armour (+1)
· Shadow Shield (+5)
· Tenser’s Transformation (+4)
Dodge AC bonuses (stack up to 20 cap)
· Boots (+10)
· Divine Shield (+20)
· Bard Song (+7)
· Haste (+4)
· Mage Armour (+1)
· Epic Mage Armour (+5)
· Undeath's Eternal Foe (+4)
· Dodge Feat (+1) *unless "flat-footed"
· Defensive Stance (+4)
· Battle Training v Giants (+4)
Innate AC bonuses (all stack)
· Bone Skin (+18)
· Draconic Armour (+4)
· Monk Armour (+4)
· Tumble (+8)
· Armour Skin (+2)
Situational bonuses (all stack)
· Expertise Feat (Normal +5 or Improved +10)
· Monk Wisdom (+20) *if not wearing armour or shield
· Dexterity (+20) *unless "flat-footed"
Bone Skin, Draconic Armour, etc. are classified as "innate" because, although they are described as “natural” by Bioware, unlike the other natural bonuses they do stack with each other.
