Question multiple Holy Veil's

Last time I tried, when you are being enchanted with the same spell by 2 different casters: 2 of them get to maintain this enchant (2*-1 energy regen)... even if it doesn't stack. And if one of them stops maintaining this enchant, enchant stays there because other enchanter is still working.

So, does this makes sense to cast Holy Veil (by multiple casters) before the match on the same character?
I know that the longer cast time won't stack, but I'm not sure if you can remove multiple hexes from the same target by just canceling the Holy Veil's.

Great idea but i'm sure it would have been exploited to hell if it really worked... Nice thought though.

My guess would be that when one of them cancels, it still keeps the other on, and therefore doesn't trigger the removal of a hex.

I don't see why it wouldn't remove a hex for every veil removed.

I don't think so, cause it says: "When Holy Veil ends, one hex is removed from target ally." and it doesn't END if others still have it on you.

Why wouldn't it work? Simple. You can't have two of the same spell or enchantment cast on one person. Casting a second Veil will either fail or replace the first one.

Please read before posting.
This only happens with normal enchantments - doesn't affect maintained enchants (enchant will still count as one, but the drop effect will still work as many times as it was maintained).

Btw, I have found the solution on how to test it... answer coming out soon.

Ok, conclusion: It works.
Was tested with different skill (Watchful Spirit), but due to same description of the bonus we can be sure that Holy Veil is of the same nature.

The simple test was: Watchful Spirit casted by 2 monks on same target, one is removed - the target still gets the heal. In addition, CoP was used - you get the heal bonus from both Watchful Spirits.
Same is supposed to happen with Holy Veil.
