Draconic Resilience is not working as intended, I believe. It says: “Parts of you are also covered by dragon-like scales. While you aren’t wearing armor, your base Armor Class equals 10 plus your Dexterity and Charisma modifiers.” My character sheet doesn’t add the dexterity modifier to ten plus charisma modifier for its base armor class only adds the charisma modifier to 10 instead. He has a dex bonus of +2 and a cha bonus of +3. So his Draconic Resilience base armor class should be: 10 + 2 (dex) + 3 (cha) = 15, right? Then for his total AC should be: 15 (base AC armor class) + 2 (dex) = 17. Instead it only shows a total AC of 15. I am doing this correctly? If so can you fix it?

It is working perfectly. Draconic Desistance grants an AC of 10 + Dex + Cha just like you wrote. With a Cha mod of +3 and a Dex mod of +2, that totals 15 exactly as you wrote. What is incorrect is that you would add your Dex mod to it a second time. Why do you think it should add Dex mod twice and total 17? What gives you that impression?
Thanks for your response. I see it now. My mistake was the assumption of the wording “base” AC. My understanding of a “base” AC was the default AC, 10, that you build upon, by then adding your dex and other bonuses. My apologies.

Oh, ahh, no. Base AC is 10+Dex mod. No need to apologize whatsoever.
