Alright, i have a quest, probably an idiotic one to some of you all. When you recieve an item that grants an armor bonus that is not considered armor (ie Black Widow Bracers), will the bonuses stack with equipped armor and/or a warforge's plating?

sorry to say NEGITIVE... those bracers will not stack with a Warforge armor EXCEPT for those who may have chose no armor at all and stayed with the basic WF armor. The basic WF armor I belive is AC 2, if you put those bracers on you will increase your AC to AC 4 not 4+2.
Those bracers are ideal for casters (robe wearers).

Yeah the basic rule of thumb is to look at what type of bonus the item gives. If it gives the same type of bonus as something else you already have it will not stack, and you will get the higher of the two bonuses. As stated above, although the bracers themselves are not 'armor' they do give an armor bonus, so they will not stack with any other armor you just get the better of the two bonuses. If your AC bonus from warforged is a +2 armor bonus, and you get the bracers which are +4, you will only get the +4 bonus, but you will see an overall increase of +2 over what you had. You still would be able to increase your AC with other items that give different bonuses, which are shield, natural armor, deflection, and dodge bonuses. hope that helps

You're, not and idiot, and really unless you think of absolutlely everything, you find something wrong with your character. I've played PnP for about 20 years and still managed to do something to my sorcerer that was so boneheaded I'm thinking of re-rolling her.
