    Default Monk AC bonus, and gear AC changes

    This post is extremely simple.

    The monk AC bonus is curently +1/+2/+3/+4. I think it should be changed to +5%/+10%/+15%/+20% to better fit the new AC system.

    Monks and Fighters with good gear/stats should be on par AC wise, and currently it's not that way. So I think armor bonuses should be increased a little for higher level gear like the planeforged armors.

    Just an idea, I know monks make up a bit with Dodge bonuses but still, fighters get more PRR so I think AC is the in-between and if a fighter can reach 200 AC and a monk caps around 90s, monks should get some changes to their gear/and AC bonuses to be closer to a fighter for those who work on their AC

    Only tank-specced fighters can get 200 AC, most DPS fighters have lower AC than DPS monks.
    That which does not kill you gives you experience points.

    I was referring to monks who build on their AC being unable to reach half of what a equally geared fighter (for AC) can.

    Previously in DDO (and DnD) monks with high dex/wis and good gear had very high AC, just as a well geared fighter. Both were on par.

    Mainly a bump post because of recent inactivity.

    Monks AC bonus would fit the new AC system better with a percentage bonus instead than a static bonus. (Even Druids bear form get a % bonus to AC ! )
