Set Effects

Does anyone know if the set effect adds to the total value of the items equipped, or if I'm getting the set value in place of the item values? I assume the set effect is in addition to the item values but I could be wrong, and I couldn't find anything on it. I included a pic for reference.

  • I'd like to think that the Set effect is not additive, and the max you can get is 30%.

    Although which one is correct would be anyones guess, I suppose.
  • In my opinion the overcharged set has a wrong description and they still haven't fix it. Overcharge set don't have damage reduction benefit, but it is energy bar increased with certain percentage in ZM2. But i don't know the limit of how much energy bar increased perk can be stacked, maybe it is 30 percentage as mentioned above.

    but for other character item with damage reduction, yes, it can be stacked and i don't think there is a limit. (anyway each item gives a small percentage so the summary won't be a big percentage)
    I equip the maximum damage reduction char item I can get on my acc, and play ZM2 shipyard, these small tick and rollers do literally 0 damage at me. and in all ZM easy difficulty, these small zombies do 0 dmg to me as well.
    But when I take off some of the damage reduction set, I notice these monsters do more damage, so my assumption is this perk is stackable.
  • Pretty sure the set effect exp is additional to the separate items
