Heh. Still makes me chuckle. "almost uncanny." I'll be grinning for a while, yet.
I second that. Big LOL!

A condition that makes you lose your Dexterity bonus to Armor Class (if any) also makes you lose dodge bonuses

The PHB states that any situation that negates your Dex bonus also negates your Dodge bonuses. (Page 307)
Did the situation negate the character's Dex bonus? No, it did not.
Therefore, by the rules as written, they don't lose any Dodge bonus.
It's just that simple.
ruleslawyer said:Having uncanny dodge means that you are not denied your Dex bonus when flat-footed or struck by an invisible attacker. Since you lose dodge bonuses when you are denied your Dex bonus, and not under any other listed condition, and you are NOT denied your Dex bonus when you have uncanny dodge, you do not lose your dodge bonus. QED.
woodelf said:Oh, and there is at least one situation where you explicitly do not lose dodge boni, despite losing Dex bonus: the wearing of armor.
