New page

<blockquote>
Armor Class (AC) is a scale of how well protected you are against physical
attacks. Until level 25, your armor class is displayed only as a description.
For example, 'The rags of a beggar' is a very poor AC while 'That of an
avatar' is a very good AC.

After level 25 you will see your AC as a number. The lower (More negative) the
number, the better protected you are from physical attacks.

----
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Your armor class is determined by your attributes (Dexterity noticeably) and
by the equipment you wear. When you identify equipment, you will see that all
pieces of itemtype armor have their armor class shown. In addition to showing
the item's own durability (An item of AC 10 will take twice as many hits to
destroy than an item with AC 5), the item's AC can also affect your AC when
you are wearing it.

Items worn on extremities or wielded will not have any effect on the wearer's
AC, but most wear locations will subtract the item's AC from the wearer's. Key
locations (Body, Legs, Head) will multiply the item's AC by 2 or 3 and
subtract that value (Remember, the more negative a player's AC is, the better).
Additionally, in 'identify' you will see that some items "Affect AC by" a
number, the more negative this number, the better (Obviously).
