By using up the bracer slot means that this can't be used by monks, unless they are using kama or crossbow. With the great range of gloves in KT most monks use these.

Otherwise a solid set, maybe a little on the powerful side but as it is competing with the rusty and pally sets I think it fits quite well.

That said, I can't see the fascination with robes for people who can only wear cloth armour, Look at the Pirate Armour, good stats without having to run around in a frock.

ok, i will change the bracers to a ring, thanks

That 15 AC on monk armor would make dexer monks have the highest AC of any comparable set on the server.

It resists every element and damage type. It provides a plus 12 bonus to all stats.

With monk feats and skills, you would be unhittable (with a few exceptions) and would resist nearly every spell but those with exotic damages.

Way overpowered is my assessment.

Gpharoah...your posts might receive more then a cursory glance if you could ever do one without being insulting. In case you don't know, saying things like "Stop that bs with monks" and "first think before posting something stupid" are considered rude. The point of these boards is to make the server better, not prove who has the ultimate NWN knowledge. People are free to offer their opinions. If you don't like someones opinion, it is ok to disagree with them without telling them they are an idiot. Please try being a bit more respectful.

As to the set, it would need some tweaking, but as I posted elsewhere, it would be nice to see a set similar to this. Monks or dexers could use a nice high level set. Thanks for ideas Tyler.

Pirates armor: +10 AC = True
Pally Armor: +15 AC = true BUT you must include the BASE +8 ac ffrom the breatplate..... so 23 armor total.
Rusty Armor: +15 AC = true BUT you must include the BASE +8 ac ffrom the breatplate..... so 23 armor total.

Those two sets have Shields also, which monks cant use without losing their bonuses.

Dex stat bonuses (dodge) stacks in an unlimited fashion with AC bonus from the armor, plus Angel bonus (20 bonus max). A dex armor of this kind can exceed the AC from plate armors.

Creation of a set that does not have a downside to its upsides is a 'lil boring. Plus, offering something quirky or unusual helps set this server aside from other servers. Novelty is the lifeblood of a game some of us have been playing most days of the week, for years.

This point of dexer cloth armors has been discussed by Sarah the DM in other places. I offer this consideration and assessment so that a monk set could be built and fit in with the limitations suggested by the server creator, programmer, and host.

Gpharoah, you could learn the difference between critique, and antagonism. Even if your ideas and criticisms are valid, few are patient enough to wade through your vituperous blatherings. "As apples of gold in settings of silver, so are right words in chosen circumstances" (Proverbs Something; I forget).

Tyler is a friend. I'm not attacking him. His set needs some tweaking to help sell it.

Not only that, but no NON-WM dexer can exceed an AB of 70..., right now STR users have highest AC AND Highest AB. Also, if a Dexer is flatfooted, they lose all fo their Dex/Dodge ac bonus... whereas people using plate mail can keep their base armor (8 and 3) bonuses, shield bonus, and armor bonusm which is higher than any cloth.

Not all dexers lose their AC and dodge bonuses for being flatfooted. Rogues have a feat which I believe they gain at 2nd level called uncanny dodge which enables them to retain their dex and dodge bonuses even if they are flatfooted. Dexer may lose out on damage but at high lvl that wont even matter because most monsters in d15/16 are immune to physical anyway so the str bonus wont make a difference. Also if you are playing a dexer rogue then you also have epic dodge which mean you will avoid the first attack in every round automatically anyway. So if you have a base 30 dex +12 for maxing it out with items will be 42 dex which is +16 ac +8 AC for tumble, +15 for the suggested armor, + 8 for boots, + 6 for helm, + 4 for haste + 10 base AC +2 if armor skin is taken and if the dexer uses a shield Drow shield for example will be +9 and +5 for the angel buff is 83 AC. which is more than a Templar Paladin without the angel buff.Now if you add other classes in there like Palemaster or Red Dragon Disciple or Shadow Dancer then the AC from those classes can be added for even more AC. So a Dexer that makes full use out of this set plus the AC from classes like Palemaster, RDD or Shadow Dancer(or a combination of the three) plus rogue with epic dodge the AC of the dexer could easily top 100 plus the first attack of every round misses. I don't know about any of you but I would think that a character like that would be fairly hard to hit.

*The uncanny dodge and defensive awareness feats allow a character to retain his dexterity bonus to AC while flat-footed*

and what does it change if its +5 +10 or +14 from angels buff if everyone still uses angel's buff?? even evil players can use angels buff if they have enough persuade skill??
You seem to still not understand something really important.... Angel's Buff doesn't increase your AC, it changes your AC Armor Bonus to +20, that means without armor you still have that much AC.
Templar Pally gets 88AC without Angel's Buff.
Dexers get 83AC without Angel's Buff wearing Pirate Armor.
SO you're saying that STR characters can't take tumble?? or can't increase their ac taking Palemaster, Shadowdancer, RDD?? They can still take Rogue/bard lvls to max tumble, just that there's a penalty for wearing heavy armor.(loose half of your tumble skill, so if you have 40tumble you only get 20 from tumble) but in a rusty set you get bonuses to tumble which comes out with 40 tumble skill still, so thats still 8ac.
Dexers can only increase dex every 4 lvls or in epic lvls but its limited at 10feats.
Str based characters can take str every 4 lvls, epic lvls which is limited at 10feats, and RDD lvls give almost 10STR.
Str based characters can use heavy weapons which have even more damage while dexers have to use only light weapons and have to take a feat weapon Finesse.
Saying that it doesn't matter if dexers loose at higher dungeons like d15/16 because they are immune to physical damages. Tell me how many monsters are immune to physical damage because i can't recall many and if they do why don't you use different type of physical damage.

*STR based bard/RDD/PM can have 39BASE AC while any other STR based Character can get 18BASE AC so imagine how much more AC that build gets*

Let me tell you one thing.... someone smart made this game and he knew what he did. He didn't do anything one sided, but you ppl here try to make things here one sided because you want STR based characters have everything the best. Dexers can only have 10AC more over Str based characters(i.e. Str based character can get 93ac without imp expertise and dexer can get 103ac without imp expertise)

When I am in d15/16 and give someone a wack with my double axe as Twin Axes i do 0 physical(aka slashing damage) but the elemntal side still gets through. What you say about people wanting Str based characters to have everything is actually not true and the proof for that is some of these posts about a high lvl set for dexers and the post about making an Arcane Archer set and posts about monk sets, improving the Crimson order, and changing Wizard/ Sorc spells to make them more usable at high lvl. Right now the site seems to be more directed towards str based characters due to the sets that are currently in the game. I dont think there is a single post on this forum giving the dm the idea of making the Paladin Set or the Rusty Set which are both directed towards str based characters as dexers dont gain any bonuses from being in heavy armor.

I agree that I --personally-- want str based chars to have the best. I believe that metal armors should have greater protective factors than cloth. I'm not quite sure why I hold this irrational belief, but I do. Somehow I believe that metal plates would provide more of cutting down on the odds that tender flesh would be pierced by arrows, swords or whatever and that when such damage is delivered the severity of damage would be reduced.

The two ways of this --complete farce -- could be mathematically represented would be in terms of AC and/or in terms of damage reduction (percentage or say 10/-). I do think damage reduction would be a more accurate representation of this facet of fantasy combat.

AC on Armor and Ac from cloth represent two different things. The base 8 AC on fullplate is to represent the protective value of the armor where cloth does not have a base AC because cloth will not protect you from an arrow sword or whatever. The main reason that dexer's would have more AC than a fighter wearing plate is because in reality a fighter wearing full plate has the protection of the plate but has a harder time dodging out of the way of an arrow sword etc., and a dexer would be more mobile in cloth and is therefore able to simply dodge out of the way of an oncoming attack. Now I'm sure we all know that this is fantasy so that is why dexers have such a grand ability of avoiding being hit in nothing but cloth and fighters in full plate get slapped around like a monster's chew toy.
