Standard Combat Styles / Stances Questions

I am just referring to Normal / Aggressive / Defensive here that all classes get. None of the special stuff.

First off... are they combat "styles" or combat "stances"? I've heard both, but I think the text in-game is only "styles"

Secondly, are all classes effected the same - for example will a wizard using defensive get the same modifications to attack speed and avoidance as a cleric? As a bard? As a warrior...?

Last: is it possible to know the actual modifications to combat given by Aggressive and Defensive, or is that not allowed? Are the benefits and disadvantages of the same percent? For example: Aggressive increases attack speed by 10% and decreases avoidance by 10%? I searched for a looong time reading posts about styles, but couldn't find any of this information.

Thank you = )
 
I don't believe Wiz has released that information. It might be that it in fact does vary, but its hard to tell.
 
Aggressive adds 10% haste and lowers avoidance by 10%, Defensive adds 10% avoidance and lowers haste by 10%. The two basic styles (Defensive and Aggressive offer the same bonuses and changes to all classes.

Except monks!
 
Oh right, Monks don't have any penalty for Aggressive, and I think Warriors don't get one for Defensive. Sorry.
 
I could have sworn I read a post from 2 years ago or so that mentioned that information was out of date, and referred to an even older post which should be disregarded.

So I'm not sure how that works for monks and warriors then = (
