I created a character with a DEX of 16. Took the feat Medium Armor Master which allows you to wear medium armor without any disadvantage on stealth checks and will allow a player to have an additional +1 to their AC if their DEX is of 16 or higher. Medium armor typically only allows a DEX modifier of +2 at max. So with this you can get a +3. So, here is the issue... I equipped Half-plate, which has an AC of 15. Now, my character sheet is telling me my AC is 19. With a 16 DEX, it is a +3 to my AC, so really...should this not say a AC of 18 (15+3) rather than 19? Or am I missing something and this isn't a mistake at all?

Sorry false alarm! It's not bugged. I have a Rogue/Fighter character and mistakenly selected Defense as the fighting style, LOL. Please disregard!
