It feels soul numbing. Your players expect you to show your math? No, if it was about the narrative, his AC should be what is relevant to his role in the story. If he is meant to be a threat and hard to kill, and yet his AC is 16, then he has an AC because of "the math". Whether his AC comes from Bracers of Armor or an obscure PrC to get there is inconsequential if it has no baring on the story.3e has its own math.
