Probably, but keep in mind that you can only have one stance up at a time.

I don't think blocking percentages stack....For instance, if you have Aegis on you and Bonneti's defence, you'd supposedly have a 125% block chance...how would that work?

I would assume that they would just miss all the time.

I had (The Necromancer spell that makes enemy miss 25%, and for every miss you get mana, forgot name) and then blinded the same enemy, I got a huge amount of mana, so he was missing a lot more than 25%.

Um, no, you would actually have an 87.5% block chance.

Have you ever been to a 50% off sale where you found a clearance item that was already 50% off? The item wasn't free. It was 25%, because percentages don't add, they multiply, unless specifially stated otherwise.
