stacking aura's

I've heard that aura's stack. So if you equipe your char with 2 Dooms, you will have a lvl 24 holy freeze. Is that correct (suppose it can be easily checked by checking the radius)?

Now, do the aura's also stack with character owned aura's. So if you've got a pala with lvl 20 fanatism, equiped with beast will this char have lvl 29 fanatism?

Just a side question about Holy Freeze.. Does it also slow down FHR animation or Weapon Block / Dodge animation?

Two auras only stack if they are both granted by items. So, the holy fire aura from the Dragon runeword will stack with the holy fire aura from the Hand of Justice runeword to make a lvl 30 holy fire aura. The same for dream.

An aura from an item will not stack with an aura from a skill. In this case, only higher aura will take affect.

With multiple fanaticism's, I've always been slightly confused, since in theory it would mean a damage reduction for the character with the lower fanaticism aura. For example, if one character had a lvl 15 fanaticism, and another had a lvl 20 fanaticism, then only the level 20 fanaticism aura would be in effect. However, this aura only gives 186% enhanced damage to the other character that had the lvl 15 fanaticism, whereas if he had his aura, he would have 288% enhanced damage from his own aura.... (sounds abit confusing, but it's probably just how I describe it).

Just a side question about Holy Freeze.. Does it also slow down FHR animation or Weapon Block / Dodge animation?

No it doesn't. Holy Freeze slows down attack speed (including trap laying for assassins), and run/walk speed. It doesn't affect cast rate (except possibly the sorc's lightning cast rate), nor faster hit recovery or block speed.
