Since its possible to have AC better than -100, is there anychance we can have that real number displayed under att instead of it being -100 at best when you know its a little better? :P

it's not a myth. watch any well equipped grey elf warrior or test your tankage at -60 ac with blur, -100 ac without blur, and then -100 ac with blur. do some tests and quit being lazy
It will be fixed in Toril 2.0.

Your effective AC can never drop below -100.
However...there are lots of other adjustments in the combat code that can make you harder to hit. It's far more complex than just comparing hitroll to AC. Spells, skills, racial bonuses, position, etc can all contribute to how hard to hit you are, but they can't be quantified and added to your AC rating in any logical way.
Hope that makes sense. :)

See Dalar, anyone who checked their ac after getting a blur cast on them could see that it wasn't lowering their ac. I remember back to Sojourn3 alpha when the gods were checking our groups' combat performance against mobs and they would display a list of all these different modifiers to combat, and there was a lot more than ac vs hitroll. Now I expect everyone who ever argued with me that ac could go below -100 to send me the money they bet on that fact.
