Ice Armour has -14% dam in CE and Shield has -7% Dam, however the resistance of shield works well. I think if anything the -Dam from one power will not stack with another contribution from the same power.

He will honor his words; he will definitely carry out his actions. What he promises he will fulfill. He does not care about his bodily self, putting his life and death aside to come forward for another's troubled besiegement. He does not boast about his ability, or shamelessly extol his own virtues. - Sima Qian.

I completely forgot about chilling embrace's -Dmg which is sad because I have an Ice tanker
. I'll now consider an Ice/KM/Soul/Paralitic build. Thank You.

Never thought of trying that. And since -dam is not resisted by anything (yet), that would be a great way to make things hurt less. Especially against AVs.
Stacking 3 KM attacks (about what the average will be I think) is 21%
4 max apps of paralytic is 20%
Chilling Embrace is 14%
Darkest Night is 21%
That adds up to 76% damage debuff. That is rather substantial, and since AVs can't resist that, it turns them into cotton balls as far as offense goes. Not only will you be able to survive big targets better, but your team will as well, since they get all that benefit as well. I'm half tempted to try this now.

Not entirely true on -dm being unresistable. See, resistance resists -damage debuffs as well, but only on the damage type they have resistance to. Say someone has 60% lethal/smash resistance, and deals mostly energy damage. Well, they will resist the -dmg to their lethal/smash by 60%, but won't resistance the -dmg to their energy at all.|

Its kinda confusing, but think of -dmg like +res, and it makes more sense. Each -dmg debuff is actually 7 or so different debuffs rolled into one (1 debuff for each damage type, so 10% -dmg is actually 10% -lethal damage, 10% -smash, etc)
Let me lead this off with a hardy "forgive me, for I know not what I do". I was interested in rolling a Shield Defense/Kinetic Melee/Soul/Paralitic(?) Tanker for maximum -Dmg. What I'd like to know is if this -dmg will stack with one another and to what amount. IF there is a link to some sort of numbers library I'll happily check it out for myself.
Thanks in advance.
