do 2 hypercubes stack?

[Charles Vane]

have 3 of 'em atm should i just keep the one and sell the rest or do they actually stack?

They stack. The consensus seems to be that more than 2 just isn't worth it.

It depends on how much protection you already have. You can't go over 5 bars. So yes, they do stack but not infinitely. Some other effects are capped at two max. artifacts like stamina recovery with Thunderberries. This might be true for bleed resistance as well. I'd sell the third Hypercube.

They stack but I have a feeling they're diminishing returns

what do you mean by 5 bars? i have an armor that i've purchased in malachite, it has around 4.5 bars of physical protection, its an armour that doesnt let you equip a helmet, so you are saying i can only increase my physical protection by half a bar max? so in that case using a '' maximum physical protection'' artifact is overkill since i cant go above 5 bars?

The whole 5 bars is missleading, as armor in the upgrade menu will show that there is more physical protection to get, even when in the inventory your armor says that you have 5 bars

Actually always used 1 HC, bc even the lowest ranking red med pack have bleed res in it and they stack..if u would use 1HC + 1 blue med pack it would pretty much stop any bleeding in 1-2s...
And Phys Prot has nothing to do with bleeding. Bleeding has its own stats, thata why u take so much dmg even from toz in 100m bc it starts bleeding, which in the early game without any protection takes 50% hp in few seconds. Despite the initial 1pellet dmg being 1% of ur HP.

U can also use Vinvcaa pills for bleeding protection.
