I forgot about the other elven races in this game, with that in mind (now) wood elf is the best race for any AA build, it just limits you to ranger.

BoA +8??? Are you going to start the game with this? If so, then yeah, might as well use little or no armor.
I don't care much for the Str bonus of the wood elf as I'll use Dex for attacks anyway (Point Blank feat for close combat). I think I'd rather have extra skill points due to higher Int (the wood elf is penalized here).

You need to be level 8 to create BoA +8. And you need a Beljuril, of course. But you can have the BoA for the major part of the game and there are other Dex enhancing items as well.
