I'm currently working on a Thorns/Akkhan hybrid for S16 using Blessed Shield as my main skill. With the RoG buff I have the 4pc bonus from Thorns set and 6pc bonus from Akkhan set.
Both bonuses tooltip shows 50% damage reduction given certain critera... Thorns offers 50% damage reduction for 20 secs after Bombardment hits an enemy and Akkhans offers 50% damage reduction while Akarats Champion is active.
Does this mean when I have both buffs active I have 100% damage reduction? This build will be my progression build for this season so I'd really appreciate comment from the theory crafting community

No, damage reduction is multiplicative not additive. So you take 50% less damage, then 50% of that
