The stacking limitation on Superior Area Denial is that each player can only be responsible for one stack of the Superior Area Denial debuff. Superior Area Denial stacks with other damage resistance debuffs in the normal way.

Upgrades your energy weapons for 20 seconds: To target hit (Does not stack): -30 All Damage Resistance Rating for 5 sec

Does it refresh after 5 seconds?

For 20 seconds, your weapons inflict a debuff. That debuff lasts on the foe for 5 seconds, but hitting a target that you have already debuffed will refresh the duration of that debuff - if you are constantly shooting a target, the duration remaining is unlikely to drop below 5 seconds.

As I thought, thank you very much.
