Seeker bonus

[Majrpayne]

simple question, I think - does Seeker bonus from items stack? I don't think so... if not, in general, is it safe to assume that bonuses from items never stack?

Does seeker bonus from an item stack with enhancements that give +'s to confirm a crit?

Is there any way to see on the character sheet what your total crit confirm and damage bonus is?

Seeker does NOT stack with itself. However, it stacks with Exceptional Seeker. One example of an item with both bonuses on it is the Epic Mentau's Goggles.

Most seeker bonuses will not stack (save exceptional)

In general most bonuses do not stack

Bonuses from items/feats/enhancements stack for seeker & in most instances

No way to see on your character sheet but, you can check the combat log

different bonus TYPES stack. otherwise greatest value wins.

Seeker
Prefix (http://ddowiki.com/page/Category:Weapon_prefixes)
Base price modifier (http://ddowiki.com/page/Base_price_modifier): +1 per +2 bonus, Maximum of +5
Effect: This property provides an enhancement bonus (http://ddowiki.com/page/Enhancement_bonus) to confirm critical hits (http://ddowiki.com/page/Critical_hit) and critical hit damage. A +10 Seeker item adds +10 to your confirm critical roll and +10 damage to your critical damage (before multipliers).
The additional damage only applies if you actually score critical damage. If your target negates the critical hit, for example by fortification (http://ddowiki.com/page/Fortification), extra seeker damage does not apply.
Multiple sources of Seeker don't stack.
Seeker affects all your attacks (single weapon melee, dual weapon melee, and ranged). For example, if you are using two weapons, only one needs to have seeker but both benefit from it. If you are using thrown weapons, you can hold seeker weapon/shield in your off-hand. The same is true of Backstabbing (http://ddowiki.com/page/Backstabbing), Doublestrike (http://ddowiki.com/page/Doublestrike), andStunning (http://ddowiki.com/page/Stunning).
On randomly generated weapons, seeker is available only in +2, +4, +6, +8 and +10 forms. On random accessories, up to +6 is available in heroic levels. +2 through +8 can be crafted with Cannith Crafting (http://ddowiki.com/page/Cannith_Crafting).
The Exceptional Seeker enchantment grants insight bonus (http://ddowiki.com/page/Insight_bonus) and stacks with regular seeker (enhancement bonus). It is found on rare items. Exceptional Seeker is currently available up to +5.
Found on:


Randomly generated weapons (+2 to +10 possible)
Cannith Crafting (http://ddowiki.com/page/Cannith_Crafting) prefix for Main Hand Weapon or Off Hand Weapon/Shield (+2 to +8 possible)
Named items (http://ddowiki.com/page/Category:Seeker_items)

Can you provide an example?


If I understand what OP is asking, then they're wondering if Seeker stacks with Critical Accuracy from the Tempest enhancement tree, for example (+1/+2/+3 to confirm critical hits). Or maybe stacks with feats like Power Critical (Power Critical grants a +2 bonus to confirm critical hits and +2 bonus to critical hit damage (before multipliers are applied)).

Ah. In those instances, I'm almost 100% sure they would.
