Hi all, like in the title.
I was trying to do an alternative healing class, I know that it sound strange but DDO is fun also for these experiments :)

I'm curious about bonus stack, like the % Positive Energy Spell Critical Chance from both enhancement.

I'm thinking about Aasimar FvS 15 / Clr 5 to have maximum advantage of the Tier 5 Heal SLA of Beacon of Hope, adding Empower Healing and Quicken

Yes, I'll lose some Positive Spell Power from the Cleric Healing Domain, also 8th and 9th level spells and I can have Empower Healing free with the 14th Cleric level, but with this strange multiclass I can reach 21% of Positive Energy Spell Critical Chance instead of 12% of a 20 level Cleric.

So, in the end: does enhancement bonuses stack?
What do you think about my idea?

You can stack them, you can also put points into DD for the universal spell power & crit too. Cleric 16/FvS 4 is a split that gets done by some.

It's always the Cleric.

Why not a FvS 15 / Clr 5? With FvS you get Heal as SLA, 15 levels for maximum caster level for Heal and tons of Spell Points.

Am I wrong? I'll lose something too valuable sacrificing Cleric levels?

Cleric 5 doesn't bring anything to table really (other than another domain ability) that cleric 4 already brings so fvs 16/cleric 4 split is better (unless you really want that level 5 domain skill). You're giving up lvl 9 spells (not a big deal), wings (I love wings, they help me avoid things killing me), and losing a few caster levels on some spells; so it's value of that trade-off for gaining the crit/etc. is up to you (well and up to pure math on value, but I'm not gonna calculate that). Give it a play, the split will work fine, and you can see how you like it vs pure (or vs other splits).
