Question[edit]

Author does not specify what "stacking" means. Does it means stacking of only damage from the gauntlets and girdle or does it include "to hit"?

This is SRD, meaning it was written by WotC. However, I can still answer your question. Traditionally, when you have items or spells that grant a bonus of the same type, you can only use the higher of the two. In this case, the gauntlets provide a +2 to Strength, and the Girdle provides a +4. Normally you just use the +4 to Strength from the girdle, which confers a +2 on Attack and Damage rolls with a melee weapon, because it increases your Strength score. Because this item is special, however, you can include the strength bonuses of the gauntlets(+2) and the girdle(+4), giving you a +6 strength, and an overall +3 bonus to attack and damage rolls made with this melee weapon, which is tacked onto the +5 bonus conferred by the weapon itself. --Badger 18:59, 25 November 2010 (MST)
