I was messing around with AC kits, today, and I was able to put together a -251ac neu cleric, using a cham cloak, clerical buffs and a blur.
I guess the question is, and knowing how THAC0 work in AD&D, what the hell does -251ac actually mean? Apparently not much after maybe -100ac.
It would be cool to figure this out going forward. Perhaps AC should top out at a max number, despite what we're wearing, so that we can gauge the max the melee engine is using.
You are using:
<used as light> a Prismatic Jewel(invisible) (glowing)
<worn on finger> a studded ring(invisible)
<worn on finger> a studded ring(invisible)
<worn around neck> a black plate neckguard(invisible)
<worn around neck> a black plate neckguard
<worn on body> a gilded gold breast plate(invisible)
<worn on head> a crimson steel helm and visor
<worn on legs> mystical silk leggings(invisible) (glowing)
<worn on feet> a pair of leather sandals(invisible)
<worn on hands> a pair of bronze gauntlets(invisible)
<worn on arms> a pair of crimson steel vambraces
<worn as shield> a huge tower shield(invisible)
<worn about body> a chameleon cloak(invisible) (glowing)
<worn about waist> a red loincloth (humming)
<worn around wrist> a bracelet of sleep(invisible) (glowing)
<worn around wrist> a bracelet of sleep(invisible) (glowing)
<wielded> a runed staff(invisible) (glowing)
<held> an ankh(invisible)
PS I used to be able to get lower with a unicorn's horn... which is 10ac.... but they changed it to a wand from a light...
