Item found Causing AC Problems

[Zartanyon]

Hello All
I was venturing in Durlags Tower My Character Roland Brinson Found these Boots of Avoidance Armor Bonus vs Piercing +3 AC Dodge Modifier Improve Save Throw Reflex +2 Skill Bonus Tumble +3

When I equipped the boots to my cha it started to cause my AC to go down from 40 to 25 to now 8 I tried to log off then on again and it got even worse. Someone said I should rebuild but not sure if that would help.

I need a DMs help on this matter. I also took a screen shot of the before and after only thing is not sure how to add the pic to the forum so you can see what I mean. Please help Zartanyon

Boots with +AC vs specific will decrease your total AC when you unequip-equip. This is because of a sript we have in place.

It will go away with server reset. If you really want to keep the item, either don't unequip and equip it all the time (or do some appearance change to it everytime you log in), or ask a DM to remove the +AC vs specific property. Chances are the +AC wasn't that useful anyway

Thank you for the info will try to change appearance when I log in again.

Maybe that was misunderstood. By making an appearance change, you're effectively unequipping-equipping every time you hit "next appearance". So that isn't helping, just hurting.

I'm saying don't unequip-equip the item, and don't do any appearance changes. If you do, you'll have to suffer from lowered AC until reset.
