*Update:* Some people say that 30 is the highest you can get in an ability score, while others have found double standards in the rules that say otherwise. Bring up the idea of infinite AC to your DM and see what they think. They might add a few more difficult challenges to obtaining it but otherwise I can vouch that it should still be possible! You'd technically be surpassing gods at that point, so it makes sense why 30 would be the normal limit.

“Make a Stealth check.”

“You disappear from reality and memory itself. Make a new character.”

A litch that has used his immortality to read and make books of speed sounds like a hilarious minor antagonist for a comedic campaign. Imagine a litch that doesn’t even bother casting spells, because a bow is way more effective.

I love how the answer to this question is, "just go really fast."

[dododododododo-a-do-a]

Basically Mecha Godzilla: "I have 788 AC! NO ONE CAN SCRATCH ME!"
Wizard: "... Magic Missile"

[jakethedog]

For the speed lich strat, there's also a staff (I think staff of magnus maybe idk) where you can enter your own custom plane, where it's laws of time and space are yours, and therefore could spend an eternity in there, but less than a second passes on the outside, basically breaking your character into REAL God levels.
I am a dm btw....
Yes I've let this happen....

“I wish for an infinite armor class”
Ok, you find yourself in a class about armor. You can’t move, and an hourglass on the teachers desk is frozen.

[secondslash]

You don’t even need to become a lich to read infinite dex books. The spell “Clone” doesn’t have a “death by old age” restriction and can be replicated by Wish at no cost.

"We're not doing this to be practical, we're doing it to be funny."
Words to live by.

[badzombies]

"Lazy, what kind of defense is this?!"
"I AM THE DEFENSE!"

[ericb]

reminds me of a really crazy story i read:
some D&D players found out that armor can be upgraded for a price, BUT the price was affected by SIZE...
so they got hold of a chicken and some chicken-sized armor, upgraded THAT armor to an absurd level, attached a bomb to the chicken...
and KILLED A TARRASQUE!
AND the chicken SURVIVED!

Blaine: "We could just boost our dexterity to levels ungodly"
Also Blaine: *shows Maple running at top speed even though she is literally slower then a turtle*

[lucabazooka]

“Nothing can get past this armor”
“I cast heat metal”

[tornadotaylor]

I saw maple clicked and then realised it was you

[timothymclean]

5:15: Disappointed that that image shows Maple and not Sally, who _is_ a speed demon that can't be hit because of how fast she is.

When you spend so much resources into having infinite AC, but an enemy spellcaster uses Hold Person on you (with you having a shit wisdom save) and now all his minions are auto-criting through your infinite armor (in melee only but still).

[critmagnet]

Player: with my infinite Armor class, I am invincible!
DM: You encounter a Mind flayer and it uses its Mind blast. Do an Intelligiance saving throw.
Player: *sad stunned noises*

[brandongalvan]

I'm a simple man.
I see our lord and savior Maple.
I click.

[starbomber]

1:41 "Sure thing, also make a dexterity saving throw"
"you still take half damage"
"the trap hits you for *rolls*"
"make a wisdom saving throw"
"The soft brian like creature has stunned you, make an intelligence saving throw"

[petsan]

I did this with one of my players a while back, and the best one we found was a Bladesinger Wizard build who could in a pinch boost his AC to 43. Meaning nothing in the game could land a solid hit on him without a nat 20. Which was unlikely to happen since he had a functionally infinite blur spell active at all times. Not infinite AC sure, but completely RAW, so no question about validity.
