You can only have one Stance up at a time. Sprint and Balanced Stance are both Stances, so using one would cancel out whichever one's already up. "Charge!", however, is a Shout, which does stack with Stances. So you could use "Charge!" and Sprint at the same time, or "Charge!" and Balanced Stance at the same time.

I think sprint and charge stack to 33%. So it's usually not worth it to stack the two movement buffs.

unless you have been snared that is. the maximum speed boost is indeed 33%, so unless you really need that 8% extra speed, don't bother stacking them..

33% faster movement lets you dodge meteors. That's why it's worth it.

You can dodge meteor kd with just one speed buff. You can dodge the damage about 50% of the time, and i would assume that 33% means no thought required. Dont trip though, any break and you still get it in the face
