do the warden skills stack?

[beathlion]

heya all, as im goin to be rolling a warden, i just wondered if they stack, such as the healing skills? or can you only use 1 skill at a time.

also if theres 2 wardens in a fellowship, do their skills stack like burgs?

Some of their HoTs and DoTs stack but not all,

One of their HoT skills is to regen 62 morale per target every 4 seconds for 16 seconds. If there are 10 targets surrounding the warden this is a potential 620 morale regen per 4 seconds, and this stacks with many of their other HoTs.

Do the defensive debuffs stack? For example, if I use Shield up and then Dance of War, does the +evade overwrite the big +e/p/b buff?

[beathlion]

thanks elelros for the reply but what about having 2 wardens in the same group attacking the same target, DoTs from both wardens stack, like burgs?

[Avassar]

imo they should....in other way multiple wardens attacking same target would be a waste of danage but who knows

Guardian's StW from multiple tanks stack, why wouldn't warden's DoTs?

I have noticed lots of stacking on my warden ,Cathie

Shield bash bonus stacks with defensive strike bonus

multiple shouts stack with goad

Heals seem to also stack, altho im only lvl 15 so far

They do stack, so it pays to alternate your gambits but you really need to be traited to make max use of it as without traits they expire before you get the next one of.

But yes, if you are in trouble and for instance need mass BEP, you can fire off all your shield gambits and get a MASSIVE boost. To be honest, early on it ain't all that massive, but it gets better later on.

Same with your heals, early on they are not all that good and almost not worth bothering with, but if you trait for it, they become very nice indeed. You might even suprise your minstrel with how little healing you need. Not enough perhaps against a real hard hitter, but certainly less taxing then a tanking champion.

Defense buffs do stack yep and DoT's from multiple wardens stack too oc. You cant do the same gambit and stack it on itself though.

Unfortunately, shield up and shield mastery don't stack, but the block bonuses from shield bash, defensive strike and shield up/shield mastery do. The evade buff from dance of war and shield up/shield mastery does as well. At level 58 it's quite possible to get well over 7000 block rating and 6000 evade rating. Parry only gets the one buff (wall of steel) so mine gets to about 3500.

PS/ The guardians in my kinship have started to like sticking protection on me for the extra reactives This, along with on guard from a captain caps my block, evade and parry with no self-buffs at all.
