AC of Undermountain Characters

[Marathon]

Partially because of the upcoming PvP tournament, I was wondering how high of an AC most high level characters have. I have a level 35 monk with 75 AC that is pretty much untouchable until I get to the proving grounds. My level 35 Paladin / COT is much lower (I think around 52 or so) wearing Armor of Torm +9 (the best heavy armor I could find)and wielding a greatsword. So how high are your best characters?

AC 60 or so, on the level 40 cleric.

AC of 113 on a tank/wizard fully buffed.

AC of 93 on a rogue

AC of around 70ish on my main fighter/weapon master.

I was afraid of an answer like that. How do you get to 113 (I understand if you want to wait until after the PvP, of course, but I am very curious)?. My tanks are nowhere near that, and subsequently get slaughtered by the higher level monsters.

3 Classes

Bard, RDD, palemaster.

He has full plate and can cast epic spells.

His AB is still a bit cruddy.

Ohh BTW I have a Dev crit character with Epic Dodge and SC V as well. His AC isn't that high but he is hard to hit.

Now that just sucks (for everyone else)...

Another RDD mix to get the 25 ST, 30 Dex?

Take heart; I've found that having a high AC, on the whole, simply means that you're weaker in other fields.

I've also found that having a high AC, Epic Dodge and SV 5 won't help much against magic. Oh, and sneak attacks and devestating criticals aren't scary either, you've been warned [img]smile.gif[/img]

It's the magic that will win the tournament.
And I'll say it again after wiping every last floor of undermountain with your behinds [img]graemlins/firedevil.gif[/img]

But they're neat builds, I'll grant you that.

Start off with Str 17 [img]smile.gif[/img] , Dex 20 and one extra point for Constitution 7 [img]graemlins/erm.gif[/img] and put all attribute increases into dexterity.

Pre-epic feats would include Dodge and the Power Attack/Cleave/Weapon Focus/Improved Critical/Great Cleave prerequisites for Overwhelming & Devistating Critical. Epic feats would have to be Overwhelming & Devistating Critical, 2 Great Dexterity, Epic Dodge and 5 Self Concealment feats. That leaves you with one extra feat (hint: weapon finesse)

It can be done, but as T-D-C mentioned the AB is poor and I'd rather not talk about total HP [img]tongue.gif[/img] .

[T-D-C]

Yeah Dev crit isn't the be all and end all.

I am still trying to decide who to bring.

I have a sorceress that I havn't used in a while. I might whip her out....

Decisions decisions.

You could just quit now and save yourself the embarrassment
