Something about the Jedi Robes simply doesn't add up....quite literally! It's the AC (armor count).
Ceratin 'trees' of force powers are supposed to raise defense.
Force Armor will raise defense by +6,
Master speed will raise defense by +4,
Master valor will raise dexerity by 5, therefore rasising the dexerity modifier by +2, hence defense by +2 (unless your dex is odd prior to cast, then it will be +3)
Now, the cummulative defense bonus from force powers doesn't seem to add with the AC from your robes( which is complete and total irony since these powers have to be cast in robes because they CANNOT be cast in tradition armor).
For purposes of experiment, unequip your robes/armor, or simpy equip your default clothes.
Now note you base defense. Now cast these defense boosting force powers. Using the above: +6 +4 +2 =12
Not surprisingly your base defense has now indeed incresed by 12.
BUT, if you now equip your Jedi Robes( say the Qel Droma with +5 defense), your base defense WILL NOT increase anymore!! :mad:
Does anyone how to fix this? Many thanks in advance.
