I believe they should stack. I actually tested this in the Steve VS EBGplayer thread. Here is a video of me using a defensive setup to harass players.
  • Base damage: At 2:13 in the video, I am not blocking nor' do I have earth armor, and I take a hit from quill daggers. 25 damage each.
  • Blocking halves damage: At 2:34 in the video, I get hit by Quill Daggers while blocking, dealing 12 damage each (25 * 0.5 =/= 12 damage, but it lines up if you round up to the nearest whole)
  • Rock Armor reduces damage by 40%: At 0:18 in the video, I am hit by a stun combo where I am unable to block. I get hit by Quill Daggers, dealing 15 damage each (25 * 0.6 = 15, lines up)
  • Blocking with rock armor still reduces damage.: At 0:29 in the video, I am blocking and a take a hit from a bunch of quill daggers. Their individual damage/quill is reduced to ~7. Notice how the stamina bar at the bottom drops to like 0 (because blocking consume stamina). One of the damage indicators from the quill daggers says 15, which implies that I ran out of stamina and the block couldn't affect all of them.
25 * 0.5 (50% less damage) * 0.6 (40% less damage) = 7.5. Damage indicators likely round down to the nearest whole number. Will have to test with shielding spells but the answer is probably "yes, they do stack".

Cool. You can't block while using spells at the same time, so that leaves Rock Armor + shielding spells. 40% + 80% = 120%. Don't know how that'll work in-game. Also, the Physical page says that damage from punching cannot be reduced in any way (defense upgrades, blocking, shielding spells, etc.). Can you check if it's true as well?
