I'm having trouble with an item I am creating. As the title says, when equipped, the ability score the item modifies will not go above 20. The link above is to a forum post with the same issue, and I have done everything that was suggested there to my item. The second link is to my item. The character that is going to be wearing this item has a Dex of 19, so it should increase to 21 when wearing the armor.
The system is designed to stop things at 20 on purpose. Following the tips in that thread can only ever get you up to the maximum of 20. If you wish to go above 20, you need to use a combination of two different modifiers:
Modifier: Stacking Bonus->Subtype: [Ability] Score->Fixed Value: N
Modifier: Bonus->Subtype: Ability Score Maximum->Ability Score: [Ability]->Fixed Value: N

I had everything but the second Dex choice. So it didn’t know which seat to allow to go over 20. Thanks. ‘It’s be working now.
