right now when wielding 2 swords I have a 28 ac and 416hp. I am wearing +5 adamantine full plate. I have a dex of 24 buffed ( I think).
Any advice is appreciated

Carry barkskin,shield, and haste pots that should give you +6 or so or run with a highlevel ranger, paladin, cleric, and haste monkey that should give you about 12 more or so also your not getting full effect from your armor since the dex bonus is cap'd isnt it? wear mithril
Beware the Sleepeater
click on my fighter shurugar to link you to the DPS/Intimitank build. it gives you the breakdown of his AC
If you want to know why...
24 Dex with Adamantine Full Plate is pretty pointless,switch over to a Robe and get some Armored Bracers,+8 would be best obviously(I don't think +10 are available yet).
Well,even with Mithral and the Fighter Armor Enhancements wouldn't the Dex still be capped and use up a whole 12 APs?
Then again maybe that minor loss of Dex AC makes up for the mere +8 from Bracers,not to mention you can't wear a Chaosgarde that way,maybe I'm wrong then,still learning,sorry.![]()
enhancements
fighter armor mastery II (+3 to max dex armor bonus)
stalwart defender stance, ac+4, saves+, str/con+
stalwart defender +3 ac, +2/3 for max armor/shield dex bonus
Feats
dodge +1 ac
combat expertise (requires int 13) +5 ac/ -5 to hit
Dragon touch armor - try to get insight, protection, or natural armor on it.
protection item, +5
alchemical ritual on armor +1
some other items like chaos bracers and some dodge items, that stack and are easily obtainable over hard to grind raid gear.
barkskin pot for natural armor +3
Using just some of this stuff (no dragontouch yet) my 13th level fighter is able to drink a barkskin pot and have a 49 AC while 2 weapon fighting.......before buffs.
Other buffs to bring that up
+5 pally aura
+4 bard song
+1 haste
+2 ranger barkskin (2 more than pot)
----------------------
61 ac two weapon fighting at 13th...
UMD can help to get you a blur and displacement scroll going...as well as a nightshield for magic missile. Scroll or wand of stoneskin and resists helps too.
hope this helps.
you can also get an item and enhancements that allow more action boosts....and get 'armor class boost IV' for short boosts of even more AC in big battles.
