I would test it myself, but I don't have one of those orbs, let alone two.

Yes, it seems to stack with itself and with the bonus from other items such as TU Full Plate. It also seems the amount is variable depending on how much STR your character has (i.e. more STR = higher bonus). For example, my DEX-based Sorc has a much lower bonus than my STR-based Paladin with the same items.

Edit:
Goddammit, ninja'd again... :)

Follow up of my fools gold question. About how large a pool am I fishing in for specific reanimates?

I've ground out 200+ kills over the past two night but still haven't gotten Unseelie, Basalisk, Stonehammer, trap rat or any of the resist aura titans. On the plus side I have gotten a few UMOs so no complaints

So a damn big pool, hahaha okay I thought there may have been more limits on it. Thanks, back to grinding tonight then.

Hey,

Am I correct in assuming, that the Assassin skill "Beacon" works just like any other normal spelldamage spell? As in +allskills, +spelldamage, -enemyress work on it?
I am not quite sure, because neither the lcs nor the skill description lists it's damage.

If not, then uber with open area will be cakewalk sniping from multiple screen away.

Ye this was what I was trying to say. :D
@L H and Fumbles: rebound actually doesn't need to hit a wall or rock or any obstacle, it will explode and split itself at about 2.5 or 3 screens away from where we throw it.

drink a lot health potion, eat an apple, get life after each kill or %life regen (i doubt there is way to get this easily)

another part probably to just stack as much defensive stats as possible (resist, defense, %TCD, max resist, %life, life, health regen, %damage reduction, damage reduction) etc
