Ok... Assuming Shield Wall is referring to the PVP defense IO set since I can't think of anything else in the game with that name.

"It" would therefore presumably be the 3% resistance unique.

Only it states in the description that it's unique, so only 1 can be slotted on a character.

So it can't stack since it can't be put into a situation where it might try.

Or was that not your question?

What particular part of Shield Wall are you referring to? The 20% Chance of TP Protection stacking with that from Galdiator's Armor is the only odd case for stacking. All the other stuff stacks using the usual 'Rule of 5' and unique limitations. I'm not sure how the TP Prots stack.

Presumably the 3% resistance *would* stack with any other power that provided damage resistance, if that is indeed what he's asking about.

If the TP protection is a set bonus, it would stack

It doesn't appear to be a Set Bonus, it looks like a special Scale 1 Resistance based on the CoD listing.

I would have expected them to make it a 20% chance proc that checked every 10s and gave high TP res (TP and Recall powers are non-resistable, so only foe TPs would be reduced and would presumably fail if lowered to less than Mag 1 with >110% Res). That's how they did TP Foe suppression; it grants +10000% Res(Teleport) for 15s. If it had been done that way you'd have the Res 36% of the time on average with both the TP Prot IOs.

However, it looks like it has its own special mechanic, so without actual testing it's just a WA guess as to what it really does.

Good point. I hadn't even considered that that might be in question.

Regardless of the actual working of the proc, if one proc grants tp immunity at any time then whether the effects can stack isn't relevant. If the effect of one proc triggering can't stop tps then you're talking a vast amount of inf to get protection for a mere 4% of the time.
