Do the different armor skills stack, so for instance if I use Armor of Earth and Armor of Mist on my Elementalist, does he get both armor updates and what about the speed buff/nerf that the skills give ? Does 21% slower (AoE) with 33% faster(AoM) become 12% faster for instance ?

Yup, everything stacks. So the armor bonuses add and the speed bonuses multiply (I think).

Can someone check if Armor spells from two different classes stack?

Because if you do Armor of Earth, and then Physical Resistance. Mesmer and Elementalist (Dont ask me, I dont use Earth or Inspiration )

physical resistance is a stance... so technically... they should stack... I hope.

There is something wrong with my testing method... I going to retest everything...

Ok... apparently everything stack... but early from regular attack was just too weak to even notice any difference...

Try testing with higher damage monsters. If you're only taking 2 dmg per hit normally, it's likely that the extra AL from your armor buffs is getting rounded away into oblivion.

When I tested this a few weeks ago, Armor of Earth stacked with Kinetic Armor stacked with Armor of Mist, so I assume all the +AL enchants should stack.

i think if you see all the buffs in the upper left corner, youre getting the effects. the stackability problems are usually when you attempt to cast the same enchant for an added bonus.

i think at least

Great, thank you. I´m anxious to see how my Geo/Hydro Support Ele fares.
