Espaço designado a opinião dessa regra, que na minha, teve uma boa intenção, mas foi mal feita desde o início.
A regra começa na pág 109 do UA.
In this variant, every character has a defense bonus based on his character level. The defense bonus applies to Armor Class. However, it does not stack with the character’s armor bonus. A character wearing armor gains its armor bonus (including any enhancement to that bonus) or his defense bonus—whichever is higher—but not both.
The defense bonus stacks with all other bonuses to AC, including the character’s shield bonus, natural armor bonus, and so forth.
Unlike an armor bonus, a defense bonus does improve a character’s AC against touch attacks.
