So I performed a search and I found out that Sharptooth can't stack with another sharptooth, that makes sense. But I'm asking this here because I didn't see a post about it. Does Sharpened Tooth Arrow stack with Sage Soul Degeneration?

My immediate thought is no, but if it did It could total 36% reduction to max hp. And I think there is a genie skill out there that lowers it by some small percent as well. This would be a ridiculous blow to TT bosses and especially world bosses.

I'm probably just dreaming though.

    Well it shouldnt stack since both the skills work the same way 2 sharptooths work.

    When we say that the max HP is lowered by a %, it means that only the Max HP limit of the target (i.e. the health when the monster is full on HP) by the %. It does not change the max HP value in the sense, the reduced Max HP does not get factored into other skills as the new max hp.

    No.

    If sharptooth stacked you could have 5 sage archers 5-shotting everything in the game with simultaneous toothing.

    Read the tooth guide's section about stacking.

    They override leaving the one that does the most reduction on top. Which is mentioned in above link.

    I see that it mentions the skill briefly at the bottom now. I didn't really think it would stack but I just wanted to know for sure.

    You can tell it doesnt stack since they have the same debuff icon. Although this doesnt always work since different buffs can have similar looking icons (like barb's hp buff and the tree of protection HP buff).

    I wasn't aware of the icons being the same. I thought that maybe the hp debuff would just be included in the standard SD icon. I just reached 89 and I'm finally considering the sage skills to get and use in future levels. I appreciate the information.

    You can test with the following steps:

    - Veno goes first.
    - Archer with non-sage STA goes second.

    If they stack, then the health bar should be at 100%.

    If they do not stack, the health bar should be at 95.238%.
