    Default Barbarian: Quest for Negative AC

    Out of curiosity, Is negative possible? If so, how will I get there?
    I want to run freely with negative AC.
    No -Dex since I barely know of no mobs that lower Dex, No Incapacitation, being held, or the like.

    Rage(spell)= -2
    Barbarian rage= -2
    Power rage= -4(total)
    Dex= -1

    -9 Total. 1 AC still :'(

    On a slight tangent, I sort of miss the time when negative AC was a good thing.

    Cool

    We strive for 3 fighter past life feats, some paly past life and at least one Barbarian past life

    at level 4, 8, 12, 16, 20 we pick Strength every time

    we are a half orc, or Dragon Born.

    we have high hp, of course

    we have high heal amp

    We Have at least 8 levels of fighter and at least 12 levels of Barbarian.

    To make sure we at least hit on a roll of 3 is my guess.

    With power attack being HUGE this is my best guess.

    Hope this helps.

    Drink a silver flame healing potion!

    If you have exactly 11 dex, you can drink a lesser and a normal silver flame potions, bringing your dex to -9 for a total of penalty of -10. Instant -9 AC, and you will be helpless too

    I vaguely remember some items giving you a penalty to some stats, including dexterity, so that would be something to look into. Check the wiki.

    I don't remember the specifics, but I recall enjoying the D&D 3 video games I've played (Icewind Dale 2, Neverwinter Nights) more than the AD&D one (Baldur's Gate 2) from a mechanical point of view. As in, I actually liked the fighting more in the former cases, but I'm trying to remember why exactly that was.

    I've never played pen and paper though.

    Go to the PVP and have someone beat you with bone breaking weapons and sunder you.

    I have seen screenshots of barbs with like -20 something AC.
