All of this sounds classic to me o.0
Is it how AC should work in a modern game? No.
Is it how it worked in 2000-2001 Everquest? I think so.
I used to play SK on live Velious/SOL/POP, doing raids Mostly. Had lvl 40-50ish ench/wiz/clr/war alts too.
If I remember correctly, AC had a soft cap, and past that cap you had to stack a huge amount of it to make even a small difference.
Thats the reason why I used skyshrine armor over kael one.
And we didn't bother with shields either.
This is from a sk point of view of course, I don't remember details about warriors MT'ing Vyemm and AoW.
If someone would do some parsing to show AC is or is not broken, It would better be done with a lvl 40 plate class from naked to full stuff vs a sabrethooth tiger imo.

Shield Always added AC even after softcap. Thats why everyone always stuck their highest AC aug(yes later on down the line) in their shield slot.
