companion active bonus

Hi,
just two question about companion active bonus:

_if I have two same companion, does their bonus stack?
For example, if I have 2 black ice ioun stone (15% less black ice consumtion) do I have a total of 30% reduction?

_if I have two companion with same king of bonus, do they stack or the system just consider the higher one?
For example, If I have a Sylph (50% CC resist) and a will-o-wisp (25% CC resist + 15% CC bonus) do I obtain a total of 75% CC resist?

thank you all in advance

    You can't slot two of the same companions, like in your example two black ioun stones.
    But the bonuses do stack, for example a purple blade (5% crit severity) and purple Erinyess (10% crit severity) will give 15% if both slotted.

    Just an additional bit of warning.. if somehow you ARE able to get two of the exact same companion slotted, the GM's are likely to delete one of them at random, including whatever he is wearing. I have seen people post on here about it happening to them.

    This happened in cases where people were able to claim more than one of an account-unlock companion due to bugs in the claim vendor.

    They could have more than one of the same companion bound and named, but not active.

    I don't recall the details of whether they lost only their inactive companion with runestones (which don't unequip), or the active ones with gear. I know some efforts were made to return items that went missing along with the companions being removed, but not necessarily to reimburse upgrade costs and the like.

    It is entirely possible to bind 20 Apprentice Healers to yourself, though only one can be active at a time, and there would be no reason for them to be randomly deleted. This was only done with companions that players are not intended to claim more than once (unless the original is discarded).
