Do Corruption Effects from Items stack?

Okay so I have one ring that has the corrupt effect 2% more damage from crits, and one ring that has 3% more damage from crits.
Simple question;
Do they stack?

I have two items that have the Mind Flay tentacle proc, and am wondering the same thing. It seems like they either stack or proc more often, but I’m not 100% sure.

Yes, they stack. All of it stacks for those.

was wondering this myself, not sure on proc effects but i just got a ring that has 6% haste from sources and boots with same. i equip one or other haste goes up but both it stays same so these don’t stack. will edit if i find that maybe different ranks stack like a 3% and 6%.

Does twilight devastation stack? I have 1 on my bracers and niw also dropped a ribg with it.

corruption sucks corruption sucks and thats how i feel

I have a 9% haste from all sources and a 6% crit from all sources corruption and they don’t work together.

I have read elsewhere you can only have 1 on at a time. (maybe a bug)

However when I have my 9% ring on and add the 6% crit belt my stats don’t change.

Sim the 2 twilight dev pieces. In the breakdown look at how many times it procs in a fight with 1 piece vs with 2 pieces. The raw dmg output is irrelevant but it should clear up some mystery.

If it procs more we know it isn’t just stacked together and If procs the same amount just with more dmg that tells us it’s added with multiple pieces

Good suggestion but… Isn’t there a list of what works together and what doesn’t from Blizzard?

At this point it is clear that the from all sources corruption doesn’t stack. I imagine there would be a list of what can’t stack and why?

Instead I am googling what doesn’t stack which led me to this thread to comment on that was 2 months old. There are other threads as well saying the same thing and we don’t have any clarification on it?

I had read that if you have twilight devastation at 12% and another piece at 6% they will proc the same, but hit for 18% (so the dmg stacks, but not the proc rate)…

Depends on the effect. Flat stat boosts do stack in regards to effect (I have two +915 proc effects on my gear, and when it procs it gives 1830 Mastery which gives a chance for each of my MH attacks to do damage almost equal to a 5 point Finisher), but I don’t think proc rate changes.

I’ve read similarly, two twisting appendages will increase the damage of one tentacle.

So is the % from all sources bugged then if they don’t work together? Odd that even crit from all sources and haste from all sources don’t even work together. So i sold my crit belt.

Is there? I think all of us would benefit from it. Toss the link

What? They absolutely stack. I have 2 +12% crits and 1 +12% haste…I clearly see them stacking on my character sheet

Hmmmm very odd then because they don’t stack for me. Also other threads and players have mentioned them not stacking at all.

I tried several variations. I took off the haste ring equipped the crit % belt and the belt worked. Then added the ring and my haste didn’t move. I just couldn’t get them to work together no matter the sequence of equipping them.

Keep in mind that even +12% is only an extra 240 at base 2000…so depending on your gear you may end up getting more benefit from a piece of gear with base crit than one without and +12%. I’m not wearing a +9% haste pants, because my current pants already have more haste than the corruption would provide

Totally aware of that but still it’s a massive buff especially when you have low amounts of gear or have some stats stacked. I just came back 4 days ago so the 9% haste ring gave me like 5% more haste.

I had found the crit belt and well crit isn’t a great stat for my Pally in general but it doesn’t work with the haste ring. I just wanted them to work together as it would of been more stats. They just don’t which is why I had to research if they work together because many people are reporting they don’t.

Maybe a bug then? Just wanted to know so if I get +12% one day of the same stat they won’t stack. Wonder why it works for you and not for others?

Thats not possible. 1% more haste = +68 haste rating…to go up by 5% means you gained an additional 340. In order to get that much from 9% you’d need to have had nearly 3800 base.

The better your gear is the more influence the corruptions have. If youre gear is low to begin with, the corruptions will have even less an impact

It is possible I had 14% haste and the ring brought me up too 19%. The ring had haste on it as well then the +9%. So it was a big upgrade since I don’t have a lot of gear.

This doesn’t address the issue of these items not stacking. I am not interested in talking about stat weights. I understand them. I just want to figure out why these items don’t work together at all, thanks.

Here is a thread from the EU forums with the same issue where they don’t work.
