As an example, I'm trying to add a feature to a subrace that includes an option for embedded armor. This option would set the PC's base AC to 13 + their DEX mod.
I assumed this would be the Bonus "AC MAX Dex Mod" with a fixed value of 13, but it doesn't seem to work.
I can't seem to get this bonus to work in any of my homebrew creations. It never seems to change the PC's base armor to 13 vs 10.
What am I doing wrong?
I’m not entirely sure what you mean? Which specific Modifier are you using? How are you trying to apply it? If you explain more I can help.
