Armored Kilt stacking


Rules Questions


Does an armored kilt's AC bonus stack with armor it's combined with? If so, can it be separately enhanced?

Yes and yes, that is why it was banned in PFS.


It would increase your armor's ac by 1, but additional enhancement bonuses would not stack (i.e. the +1 on your kilt wouldn't stack with the +2 on your armor). But other ability enhancements (e.g. fortification) would be useable as long as they didn't duplicate.

That is technically correct, but any sane GM shouldn't allow it.

Alright, was curious if this was the case. Wanted to know if I could get more AC for cheap.

That's a different question ;) But I agree, and would just call a piece of armor with a kilt one suit - suitable for only 1 set of enhancements. It is a nice way to get a touch of extra ac cheap.

I thought that once you added it to a suit of armor, it became part of that armor, just like grieves, helm, etc. In other words, you couldn't do what is described above.

Has this since been clarified?
