As for the Improved Invisibility not providing the +4 AC bonus - it actually does, but it does not show up within the Record screen - instead it applies a -4 penalty to enemies attack rolls, in the same way that the Girdle of Crushing/Piercing/Slashing works against those weapon types. |

One thing about the girdles though, their bonuses do show up on the Records screen, under "Armor Class Modifiers". [ 03-07-2004, 05:25 AM: Message edited by: Rataxes ]

Ehhm, WAIT A SECOND!! It gives a -4 to enemies attack rolls?! Doesn't that mean that with the baldurdash fixpack the spell now gives you -8 AC?!?!

Nalia only seems to have about an even chance at controlling earth elementals, so Ive used the ring of earth control several times against earth elementals (the things it's meant to work on). To my experience.... it doesn't

Not enough to state whether it is a bonus or penalty then?

Edit - to fix my spelling of '[/QUOTE]'... [/QUOTE]A +4 bonus and a -4 bonus are the same, but this one just just +4, so you'll have to assume that it's a penalty. But then why would enemies get a penalty to their attalk role if your AC has gotten worse?

That's all besides the point, which is that IF it's true enemies get -4 to attack rolls whenever you're improved invisible, that means the -4 bonus to AC granted from the Baldurdash fixpack is something that should not be there and now gives you a practical -8 bonus...
