    Default Quick Rules Question about touch ac and flatfooted ac

    If I were a warlock and was under my own magically created darkness that I can see through and I eldrich blast someone who cannot see me will the AC I have to hit be their Touch AC-their Dexterity?
    Technically they are both flatfooted and eldrich blast is a touch attack so I think I would just need to hit an AC of 10
    No matter what you do, no matter what you say I will always love you. For you are human and in you is beauty and I am vain.

    + any modifiers not neglated by touch or flat f, such as size and deflection bonuses yes.

    And your last mission is to spread my command,"

    And insight bonuses, like a Monk's Wis to AC.

    That's actually untyped, not insight. It does still apply, though.

    When you catch someone flat-footed with a touch attack, you ignore armor, shield, natural armor, dexterity, and dodge bonuses. All other bonuses still apply, including deflection, luck, insight, size, sacred, profane, and untyped bonuses, plus any others I neglected to mention.
    Like 4X (aka Civilization-like) gaming? Know programming? Interested in game development? Take a look.
