Mechanical Notes
- The STR/DEX bonus is soft; it will count toward the +12 magical cap.
- Note that the AB/Damage/AC item stacking of the fighter is exclusive of the fighter's abilities, and there's no other way to stack them.
- A shield, helmet and armor/clothing must be equipped in order to receive the respective AC bonus, and a weapon for the AB and damage bonus - unarmed attacks will not benefit.
- The AC bonus for the helmet is Deflection, a source of AC that may also be found in rings, cloaks and other even less common sources. The Fighter bonus AC will only stack with the helmet's AC; not rings or else. You will use whichever Deflection is higher; Helmet+Fighter Bonus or Ring/Weapon/Spells.
