Armor Class
Rulebook
Your Armor Class (AC) measures how well you can defend against attacks. When a creature attacks you, your AC is the DC for that attack roll.
AC = 10 + Dexterity modifier (up to armor’s Dex Cap) + proficiency bonus + armor’s item bonus to AC + other bonuses + penalties
Use your proficiency bonus for the armor’s category (light, medium, heavy) or the specific armor type. If not wearing armor, use your unarmored defense proficiency.
