What is your flatfooted AC with a Dex of 8?


Rules Questions


Has the errata answered this question?

On page 179 it says you do not apply your "Dexterity bonus"...well 8 Dex does not have a bonus but a -1 penality. So does that mean your flatfooted AC is 9 and not 10?

You don't apply your Dex bonus, but you don't take away the negative either. Being flat footed is not something that's supposed to be beneficial to you.

You still get the penalty.

Sig's, "kewl" or otherwise are not welcome on this site by the moderaters and will likely get you in trouble if you make a habit of posting them.

When the game says "bonus" rather than "modifier," it really means "bonus."

In other words, if you have an AC penalty from a low Dex, it still applies to your FF AC.
