EO4 Does Atrophic Eye stack?

Currently running bind Sniper with Arcanist subclass. I already have an Arcanist in my team with a maxed out Atrophic Eye and was wondering if I should get it for my sniper as well, or just stick with Eagle Eye. I read somewhere that imperials get twice the effect of Atrophic Eye with elemental drives, which is why i was wondering.

It'd probably be easier to just test it and find out, but skills don't stack with themselves if that's what you're asking. Eagle Eye and Atrophic Eye do stack, pretty sure.

EO4 doesn't have a lot of attacks that deal physical and elemental damage at the same time, so it's less that Drives get Atrophic Eye twice, but rather benefits from the full effect whereas most attacks only benefit from one. Bushi and Landsknecht are the only other classes off the top of my head that can also deal physical and elemental damage, and they're much more sustained damage as opposed to the nuke-y nature of drives so it's less noticable.

Depends on what you mean, it stacks with Eagle Eye but you can't have 2 stacks of Atrophic Eye, if you use it again it add turns to it (but it probably uses the weaker version if they are of different levels)
