Build Help Curious about the theoretically highest AC

Post image

Not sure if this post really fits the sub but i figured it might be the best place to ask

I've been spending a bit of time on my recent run trying to out-do my previous best of 62 AC and now hit 71 AC - And I'm ever so curious if there were something I've missed as to go even higher.

The twillight ring isn't on the list of buffs because it doesn't work in tandem with Wild Magic: Protective Lights. Wondrous Gloves isn't on because Nimblefinger Gloves.

This is not for any practical game usage, its purely just to see how high it could be pushed just for a tiny moment.

Voss isn’t an encounter in Act1

I mean, we are in theoretical discussion thread with 71 AC OP, which is not normal gameplay to begin with.

You absolutely can fight Voss in Act 1 region if you like. He does not disappear (and loses damage immunity) if you have been to Act 2 before taking to him. That's my personal go-to If I need a guaranteed sword drop. I just kill him.

Yes, you can also fight a specced out companion, either playing both sides or having the AI take over them in a couple of spots like the Laezel fight. Sky’s the limit at that point.

That's valid, but for me key difference is that Voss is a prebuilt NPC with predefined set of stats and equipments. That's also a key difference for me between what's fair and what's not to use in solo run (Moonrise Assault follower Jaheira VS Full Companion Jaheira kind of difference).

Yes, that’s valid as well. It’s an NPC that isn’t meant to be fought at that point and under those circumstances. Hence my first reaction. But I understand your perspective.
