It stacks infinitely though. Like, 3 characters all hitting EW on a boss means it gets -45 AC. Even the white dragon is easy to hit with the last attack then ;)

You still can't hit on a 1 though; and you sacrificed AB etc getting EW. I guess if you want to be an MMORPG type boss raider then it's worth it...

If you are not playing the build here, then RDD is very desirable. Take 18 levels cleric (take the water domain) with the following feats: daylight adaptation, extend spell, power attack, divine might, divine shield, extra turning, practiced spell caster cleric. At level 19 take one level bard then go all RDD and the last level cleric. You will want epic prowess, expose weakness, and lastly epic divine might. You may want to fit in the time domain and persistent spell for an over all cheese powered build.

Otherwise, Thorsson's advice is solid for BGTSCC.

Daylight Adaption only affects skills as the AB light penalty is bugged and doesn't work (hasn't done since NWN IIRC).
