If you are proficient with the armor, in IWD2, you only take the armor check penalty to pick pocket, hide and move silently. If not, it also applies to Pick locks, Disarm and Attack Rolls. The lesser the better.
There is also a thing called Max Dex Bonus. It is the biggest allowed dexterity that you can benefit from. If you have 14(+2 bonus) dex and an armor of Max Dex Bonus +1, only 12(+1 bonus) of your dexterity is applied to things that dexterity applies to.
Shield bonus is another type of AC bonus, it stacks with everything else except for itself.
