Damage reduce question

Archived from groups: alt.games.diablo2 (More info?)

I think i read somewhere that max damage reduction is 50%.
Is that correct ?
If it is, then what if i use stormshield and string of ears that gives 50%
damage reduce and then add gladiators bane that give 15-20 damage reduce,
will i still get the 50% and then the extra from gladiators bane or only
the 50%?

Cool, then gladiators looks like the close to perfect armor for my
berserker barb when he grows old enough
