So a suit of full plate that starts at 8AC is never going to be better than 13AC no matter how many different sorts of AC bonuses you throw on it. In addition to this, there are a couple of other points to keep in mind:1) Bonuses of the same type overlap, but don't stack. So if it already has a +2 enhancement bonus to AC, then throwing a +4 Magic Vestment makes the amor +4 total rather than +6.2) The total equivalent bonus on a suit of armor cannot go above +10. So if you have ghost touch, fortification, or any of those other nifty special abilities, you have 5 pluses to fill up for free. Adding more than that reduces the number of AC bonuses that you can put on that same suit of armor, and it doesn't matter if those AC pluses are temporary or not; +10 total is still the limit.So a suit of armor can have up to 10 pluses of things put on it, with no more than 5 of those pluses being AC bonuses.</blockquote>
