With materials and forging techniques our "Tank" can get a pair of Dastanas to give a +8 armor bonus. Since I know it would probably be asked. Dwarven Forged: +2 AC, -1 armor check, but adds +10% to spell failure. 900 gp. Dragonskin: They have a catergory for each age but he uses Wyrm skin. +5 AC (that's it) Cost is x7 of original item. Yes we know it's broken we don't need folks on message boards to tell us this. The DM (me) also makes very efficent use of these for any NPC's.
