@Riot Two questions: One about a mastery interaction and the other about boots

Thanks for any answers in advance ^ ^

OK, so for the first question and most burning question:

Does Bond of Stone stack with resistances in a multiplicative or additive way?

I NEED to know this so that I can calculate the gold values of Bond of Stone.

And now, for the second question:

Is it possible to implement a boot slot in inventories, or would that be too chaotic for the game? Boots are basically mandatory in every game on all classes, and it would be nice to not have to dedicate a slot to it, or make items for each class that are akin to Zephyr, with possible boot enchantments on it. This could be a bit overboard though if some champions can now have six item builds instead of five.

It says +2% Damage Reduction for Bond of Stone, so I am assuming it is additive.

It should be multiplicative, like all other sources of damage reduction. Additive would be pretty broken, as if you're already blocking 70% of incoming damage and you block another 8%, that's about a 30% reduction in damage taken from the mastery alone. Alistar ult would make him invincible if it was additive, as it would put him over 100% reduction.

Yea, but it says +2% Damage Reduction, whereas Alistar's ult says "takes 70% reduced damage for 7 seconds." It's a small difference, but the second one is multiplicative for sure because of the phrasing. For the mastery, it says +2%, which means it has to be additive... I think... which will be insanely strong the more armor and MR you get...
