    uhm.. need more information. What kind of character, stats and equipment. Generic AC is not something I'm familiar with in 3e d&d, playing some game CRPG? (IWD II perhaps?)

    Lokken, I know that you lost that bet in the poll, but if I could, I would invite you to drink something somewhere on my bill :) :) :) Damn far are you from me...
    You seem always to answer my stupid questions.Thanks, I'm just not a hardcore RPG fan like the most people who are here, bit still am a Fan.
    As for the info you needed here it is - playing IWD 2 indeed, and half of my group has +1 bonus on AC (generic) - aasimilar fighter 1 Paladin 4 lvl, human wizard lvl 6, human monk lvl 6 has +2,
    half-orc barbarian lvl 6 has none,thiefling rougue has +1,and my human cleric has +1 too.
    As for stats the Paladin is nothing exclusive 15,12,10,6,18,18 i think, half-orc 21,18,18,6,6,6
    and so on...really screwd this party cose it's my first in 3d and as you see full wrong :mad:

    hmm, perhaps it's a bonus from an unidentified item? Or a spell like bless?

    as for the stats.. I just can't help it :D ..

    then I'm clueless. Don't have IWD2 so I can't say anymore than what I know from the ruleset. Probably a custom thing for the game, or some bug. Could be a bonus of something ingame.

    could be... Just loaded the save of my old party named the begining(always save at the begining) and voila - only my future paladin and cleric (now fighters lvl 1)have such a bonus and +1.the monk and thiefling and the wizard don't have.I think it's a bug.Got an idea to make the same character and start new.If only this time he does not have such a bonus.....

    I almost certain that the generic bonus you have comes from the dodge feat. Monks also get generic bonuses as they go up levels.
