1. armor class rating ac
AC stands for Armor Class. Your total AC is listed in your score sheet.
This number is deducted from the damage you receive (e.g. if you have 100
AC and a monster deals 150 damage, you will only receive 50 damage). The
damage can never go below 1, so if you have 100 AC and the monster hits 50
damage, you will still receive 1 damage. If you have resistances or
weaknesses, these will be considered after the damage reduction from armor
(e.g. if you're resistant to damage by 50% and have 100 AC, and a monster
deals 200 damage, you will receive 50 damage. This is because in the first
step your AC will be deducted from the 200 damage, which reduces the damage
to 100, and with your 50% resistance to damage, this number is cut in half
to equal 50 damage taken).
In the score there is also a percentage behind your total armor class. This
shows you how well armored you are for your level. It compares your AC to
the AC of a player who is wearing normal armor of your level in all slots
(including a shield). 100% means you have as much as them and 50% means you
only have half as much. Therefore it is also possible to have over 100%.
Loring an item will reveal its armor class, if it has any, and the rating
of the AC for the level of the item (below average, normal, above average).
