% damage gear question

Does encounter perk or at will perk stack? Can you have 2x encounter perk and get a 6% boost in encounter damage? Confused since encounter perk never showed up on the buff bar.

    Only the "Swordsman's Perk" and "Snipers Perk" stack twice ... all the others just stack once. So you can get the +3% to melee twice, but the +3% to encounters only once for example.

    Care to elaborate on that? There's no gear that adds 1% encounter/at-will damage as far as I know.

    Not exactly the same thing...but then wouldn't someone use this instead?

    If adding up all different buffs one can get WAY more than 4% as was stated, so I was assuming sgtpostal meant 4% encounter/at-will power buffs only. The mystery still remains. :tongue:

    Only if he has the +5. Not everyone has the +5 (or +4 or +3).

    I basically only answer your statement (not his) regarding:
    There's no gear that adds 1% encounter/at-will damage as far as I know.

    Yes, there is such gear.

    not 4%, 4 at a damage %, I think you can get more than that from gear though.

    Melee/Ranged damage x2 (many sources)
    Encounter Damage / Encounter and At Will Damage (gloves)
    At Will Damage (boots)
    Damage when about 75% Stamina (boots / shirt)
    Damage from Behind (armor)
    Damage when within range (rings)

    OK gotcha both...and doesn't apply to the topic really, since the question was about the same buffs stacking.

    There's a big difference between the Shadowstalker ring and at-will/encounter +3 items: 2 different things. While they do stack together, wasn't exactly what was being implied...i.e 1% all powers is not the same buff as at-will or encounter. So no, there is no such gear as i was asking. The specifics matter when it comes to % damage increase items.

    well while it may not be the same NAME perk techincally there is.... depending on you at will you can get the snipers or melee perk an it will stack onto the at-will perk or the encounter perk adding your 6% your questiong (same with the melee perk)sme goes for the encounter one an the snipers perkif you got ranged encounters an the snipers perk on say one of your rings.... 6% as with the melee encounters an the melee perk

    Boots: Boots of the Willed +3% At Wills
    Armor: Executioners Garb +5% (but apparently only gives 3%) Behind Target or
    Armor: Hags Rags/Fiured Kiuno +3% Ranged/Melee
    Ring 1: Ebonised Raid/Assault Ring +3% Ranged/Melee
    Ring 2: +5 Shadow Stalker +2.5% Within x feet of target
    Arms: Terrored Grips/Jaw Rippers +3% Encounter Damage
    Head: Spy Guild/Protege +5% In Undermountain

    Off the top of my head, that's what you can stack/equip for the %dmg buffs. I probably missed some, so just a rough idea to what you can do.

    The new Arms "[Tempter of the Twilight's Gloves]" (1000 item level) from Zok or ME quest rewards, is +3% Encounter Damage.

    So only swordsman's perk and snipers perk stack twice. Can I have both encounter perk and HAMSTER-for-tat equipped at the same time?
  • lordtweety#3604 lordtweety Member Posts: 275 Arc User
    As long as they aren't the same slot obviously, having a different name should mean it will stack with any other gear buff with a different name.
