Does poison damage stack?

I'm looking at the Herald of Pestilence 1h blunt weapon for pally. On this weapon, it gives ctc rotting flesh on kill, graveyard okill, and damage boost to Symphony of Destruction. What is the point in having so much poison abilities if only one poison will be applied?

it's the theme of the item. different poison skills have different mechanics and damages. there's a page in the docs wiki about poison damage

Two questions:
1. What's the best order for level 120 areas (if there is one)? I've seen the descriptions, so it kinda feels like Quov Tsin should go after Judgement Day, but still, maybe some advice?
2. If I increase my MF, would it affect the chance to find set items in K3K? Is there another area, where I could more or less reliably farm Set items?

1.) It really depends on your character. Quov Tsin needs 90 max resist to fire lightning and cold and about 135 damage reduction (you can get 90 from mystic orbs on rings and amulet) to become nearly immune to all of his attacks. Ureh needs a few summons maybe or high defense. Also 40% movement speed on boots and a teleport skill like Blink from
Pax Mystica
Pax Mystica
Staves

'Tir'
Runeword Level: 10
+1 to All Skills
+7% to Spell Damage
+(2 to 5) to Blink
Elemental Resists +(11 to 15)%
(11 to 13)% Magic Find
is adviced. Teganze/Duncraig/Triune are farming areas, so you should be able to get at least through the farming parts. Duncraig: You can easily kill assur if you stack lots of fire resist (425 in total and 90 max fire resist) you are nearly immune to his attacks and can easily kill him. Triune needs some strategy. It has become a lot easier since the last patch. Just go to the very north of the map to get the Tome, then lure 1 boss to the other and use the charm skill from the tome to charm one of the enemies and let the other one hit him. And the boss in teganze is rather easy since you can just keep a TP open. Just make sure that your damage output is strong enough to counter his healing. The rest is about farming Teganze for essences. I can't say much about Kabraxis and Athulua, but I hope I was able to help you already. And for Judgement day: You need killspeed and movement speed more than anything else.
2.) Yes, MF increases the chance to find set items. K3K is by far the best area to gather sets.

The Demon Blood aura on Vizjerei's Folly (Sacred Unique Short staff) doesn't affect anyone but me.
Is this intended?

On the screenshot on the medianxl d2 tools page for d2stats, there is a column for total resists:
https://www.median-xl.com/tools.php

The current D2stats version on the tools page does not seem to have total resists listed, and mentions as much in its comment:
https://github.com/Kyromyr/D2Stats/releases/tag/3.10.6

3.10.6
@Kyromyr Kyromyr released this 27 days ago

Fixed PM Spell Damage.
Added Gold Find.
Added Factor Cap; 100% means you don't benefit from having more factor.
Removed resists; you can see them on the character sheet now.
Removed Open Wounds.

Is there a version which does have the resists still, since I cant see the merc resists in game still? Am I missing another version on github?
