I think the outrageous bonus to AC from the class is bad for balance, and it's not found in any book I own, which is most of them for 3.5. You know, I am getting tired of coming in every time TRF and DBS are unable to handle something, which is almost every time someone feels like bending the rules. If you want to start a new forum that's D&D style with your own "ghetto" homebrewed rules, that's fine. This game, however, is by the book, so please try to stay within the rules that we actually know and stop trying to do whatever it is that unbalances gameplay. In a couple of months (hopefully by September) I will have good internet access and I can take over or start a new game. I don't mind the characters currently playing, I just don't have up to date copies of anyone. I'm going to bed, so if you have any more questions or concerns, problems or conflicts, tell TRF and he'll keep me notified.

Still very old by Elf standards and unheard of by Humans.

I think that is was more the fact of using it as a Totem that he was referring to.

Considering almost no Elf has naturally lived to 700, it is extremely old.
