Firehawk, just wonderimg if you know...
Does armour mitigation from one class stack with another class? i.e. SL+Commando. I'm thinking yes...
What do you meant stack?
It is not a Player Mod but a Cert.....and most of the questions come up with TKA and other profs since TKA doesn't wear armor. Devs have commented on the TKA case where you lose the TKA defense bonuses when equiping armor.

In regards to stacking here is an example:
Carbineer - Battle Armour Movement Mitigations - total: 60%
Fence - Battle Armour Movement Mitigations - total: 40%
Would the combined total be: 100% mitigation or would only the stat relevant to the class it came from apply? ex. If I have a Carbines is equipped then it's 60%, if I have a fencer weapon equipped it would be 40%?
100% absolutely not, as I said it is a Cert, not a Player Mod. You would get 60% mitigation of movement with your battle armor on with any weapon in hand.
Think of it as the way Ranged/Melee Mitigation levels work on LIVE right now.....they don't stack and work all the time. The only time this doesn't work is with TKA as the TKA Defense won't stack with Armor so you get either or there but even then Armor works fine with a VK in hand it is just that the special TKA Defense is lost once you put armor on.
Either I must get myself a nice set of RIS or I must cross over to the empire.
(Of course, I could just get MBH and wear assault armor instead)
