Stacking of Saving Throws

[Ranven]

Hello

I would like to ask you about stacking ST.

For example, we've got a 20 lvl barbarian with 12+6 Fort. Save Throw (12 basic, 6 from constitution.)

Let's say that he will get two rings of fortitude +5 and cloth of fortitude +5 (it's just an example)

Will He get 18+15 of Fortitude Save Thrown or just he will take the highest value from one item (+5) which give him 18+5 fortitude? Will it stack or won't?

Stacking rules depend on bonus types. If the rings and cloth are all granting separate bonus types (say Resistance, Sacred, and Luck), they will stack. Any bonuses of the same type do not stack.

Edit: For a specific example, a Cloak of Resistance +5 grants a +5 Resistance bonus and a Pale Green Prism Ioun Stone grants a +1 Competence bonus. These stack. The resistance bonus granted from a protection from evil spell would not stack with the cloak.

I see, so it's possible to get those +15 if they are different types. Ok, thank you for your help :)
