Lavender Wreath and Binding Rope question

[MasterCipher]

I vaguely remember odd conflicts with certain items being considered the same kind of retaliation. Does anyone know or remember if one of these suppresses the other? 

[Boeroer]

Yes. Unfortunately one suppresses the other. Even "normal" retaliation (pierce damage) will get suppressed. It's either sickening OR stuck OR pierce damage. Exceptions: Battle-Forged, Flame Shield and retaliation from Sura's Supper Plate. Those stack with everything.
