A Alloran First Post Sep 2, 2004 #1 If my evil NPC is being attacked by a Paladin, and he has both Protection from Good and Protection from Law, cast upon him, does the AC and save bonuses go up to +4 instead of staying at +2? In other words, do the protection spells stack? ~Alloran

I irdeggman First Post Sep 2, 2004 #2 No they don't stack. The protection spells grant a deflection (for AC) and resistance bonus (for saving throws). Bonuses of the same type don't usually stack (DMG pg 21 and PHB pg 171-172) except for dodge bonuses and some circumstance bonuses.

P Patryn of Elvenshae First Post Sep 2, 2004 #4 Nope. They are named bonuses - Deflection and Resistance, specifically - and therefore do not stack with other similarly named bonuses.
