    Fortified Stance & Hunker Down, do they stack?
    Hunker Down - You take less damage while crouched.
    Take 9% less damage - 3 EGO Points

    Fortified Stance - You take less damage while standing still.
    Take 15% less damage - 3 EGO Points

    Does anybody know if these two stack? Does anybody also know if we only have fortified stance, do we lose 15% dmg reduction when we crouch?

    I used both, I don't have any numbers to back it up and the reductions are pretty small so I can't say how effective the combination may be. But it did seem to increase my survivability. Unfortunately I didn't die the entire beta time I played, I went with those perks from the start. Cloak immediately restarting shield recharge, in addition to these mitigation bonuses seemed to make me pretty sturdy.

    Yes, they do stack. However, you are also a sitting target so....

    Equipping a low 3 sec charge shield with 25hp regen

    Fortified Stance - Take 15% less damage
    Failsafe - Take 30% less damage
    Fortitude - +750 HP
    Detachment - Take 15% less damage
    Hunker Down - Take 9% less damage
    Feedback - dmg reflect

    Shield should be constantly up and down keeping dmg reduction and dmg reflect up.

    69% dmg reduction while all perks are active. No idea if it'll work or be useful but I think it'll be an interesting build.

    But...last time I looked, there were only three slots to equip perks for each loadout, correct?

    There are 9 slots for perks but you have to unlock them by getting a higher EGO rating. The higher your rating the more perks you can have active at one time (current max is 9)

    360 version had 8 slots I think, they opened up either with your xp level or EGO level, not sure which.
