Do aptitudes and effects from innocents (guardians, weapon experts) stack by addition or multiplication?

eg, a character has a 500 guardian and 300% atk aptitude, would the effect be either

500+300 = 800% bonus or
500x3 = 1500% bonus?

Multiplication, so yes to the 1500% example.

FYI, a 500 guardian is actually a x6 multiplier. It starts at 100% and for every level on the guardian it increases it by 1%. So a level 500 guardian (or other weapon mastery innocent) brings it up to 600%, or 6x.

Also, as a rule, everything is multiplied together as they are all separate boosts.

So the max stat boost is 1800% then? Or are there other factors?

There is also an extra multiplier for having equips with the very same rarity number(matching rarity).

This effect its also multiplicative, but only affects the pieces that matches:
2 pieces = 10% more to each piece that matches.
3 pieces = 20% more to each piece that matches.
4 pieces = 30% more to each piece that matches(which would be all pieces)

This multiplier starts at 100% meaning it ends at 130% when all matches, otherwise remains at 100% if nothing does.

As far as equipment goes, I think those are all the multipliers. The others would be evilities, geo panels or buffs I guess.

Right, I forgot about that. So that makes the max 2340% equip stats. Starting to see why people say you can max out attack without equipping a weapon
