I've been around long enough to get tired of seeing tons of "Do x buffs stack?" or "Does x element work with y unit's LS?" Well here, I'll hopefully clarify those so as to reduce the amount of said posts.

Buff Stacking
This concept is pretty easy to understand. Basically, buffs fall under categories which are mainly:


 * Leader Skill
 * Extra Skill / BB / SBB
 * UBB
 * Items
 * Spheres

To find out if a certain buff will stack, you can plug it in to the above categories. If two match, then they won't stack, however, if you can plug all your buffs in without having duplicate categories then you're good.

Elements
I don't know why this question gets asked so much but I'll answer it right here. Buffing elements will not work with any element boosting buff.

In other words, as far as elemental weakness damage boosters are concerned, they treat added elements as not existing so that means only the base element of the unit is checked.

This is also true for units who have multiple elements on their BB/SBB. For example, using Nadore's Light EWD buff will only affect Kira's SBB on Dark units since Kira is originally a Light unit.
