AP2 means Armor Piercing 2 aka medium armor piercing (your weapon will read medium)
For a detailed report on how armor piercing and armor works as damage goes, check out the armorsmith and weaponsmith boards, they have alot if useful information in their respective FAQ's
and yes, you can stack mindhit1 and mindhit2, you can stack any multiple DIFFERENT DoT's on a mob, as long as they are different, if you used mindhit2 and just spammed it, it would simply reset the timer on the bleed. Same as if you had 2 swordsmen spamming mindhit2, they would reset each time the last one hit. So /mindHit2; /mindHit1; /spamheadhit3 should do ya just fine.

no,
the timer is not reset each time you do a mindhit... it's only reset if your mindhit is more powerful than the previous one ...
It works like doc buff... You cannot be buffed if your current one are not ended unless the new ones are more powerful than the previous ones..

Ibanzai can you please clarify this for me? are you saying that mindhit2 will overwrite mindhit1 and therefore not stack? or something more along the lines of the following:
1st mindhit1 200dmg
2nd mindhit1 100dmg
3rd mindhit1 300dmg
the second shot will not land a bleed as it is not as powerful as the first..
the 3rd will reset the bleed at the higher damage.

no mindhit1 and mindhit2 are on separate buffer... However a mindhit2 will have an effect (reste the counter for instance) on a previous mindhit2 only if the second one is most powerful
For instance
mindhit1 100 for 30s
mindhit2 200 for 45s
both will stack
then mindhit1 80 for 30s will not stack because isn't more powerfull
However mindhit1 120 30s will reset the first one .. the dot will no be 120 and the timer be counting from 30... The previous mindhit2 will stay too however

Thanks for the advice.
Stacking mindhits helped me kill some elders that teeny weeny little bit quicker last night
