Sorry if this is a repeat.
If I have trailblazer talent, have pathfinding buff from my pet, and use cheetah (maybe even posthaste), do these effects all stack? If not, which ones do/don’t?
I’m positive cheetah stacks on top of trailblazer/pathfinder separately, at least.

I’m 99.9% sure that combo of speed boosts stack but there are combos that don’t stack. Some speed potions and speed food buffs won’t stack. Sometimes the description will say that but not always.
In general anything that affects non-mounted speed will stack with other non-mounted speed buffs but as soon as you mount up they don’t have any effect on your speed. I’m not sure about if the speed buffs help soulshape since it registers you in a different form/stance.
Pathfinding and posthaste are the ones I’m unsure about, since they seem minor especially when compared to cheetah/trailblazer. With everything on at once I feel like I’m going borderline mount speed, very nice for farming mounts in old raids.
My movement speed numbers
Base speed: 111% (+11.36% from gear)
+Trailblazer: 141%
+Cunning pet: 153% (bonus from Aspect of the Beast = 8+4%)
+Posthaste: 203%
+Cheetah: 243%
Summary: All effects stack on top of eachother except for Posthaste and Cheetah(you don’t benefit from both at the same time). And since Cheetah provides the strongest buff, it overrides Posthaste if it’s active when you use Cheetah.
Note that it might be possible to override the secondary bonus speed from Cheetah with Posthaste since it would be stronger at that point. It’s only the first effect from Cheetah which provides a bigger boost than Posthaste.
I’m using the addon DejaCharacterStats which has the option to track my current movement speed in the Character frame.
