I really think they do not stack. My guess is that none of the other arcanes stack.

I tested with various arcanes, for example, Arcane Velocity, I used a full set and a single one, when using them in the Simulacrum, I only got ONE of the effects to trigger at any given moment, and sometimes the lower ranked Arcane, OVERRIDES the effect of the other and it also overrides the timer, making it shorter. I never got a 100% firerate increase, it was either 80% or 20%.

With Arcane Guardian, same test, used a full set and a single one, I either got the full set to trigger, or the single one, but I never saw them at the same time. And same thing as above, when the lower ranked arcane triggers, it overrides the timer of the other. The effect is harder to tell because it doesn't show above in the UI, but just letting an enemy fire at you, it was apparent that when I got the lower ranked arcane to trigger, I was easier to kill, even when the higher ranked arcane triggered first with a lot of time left when the lower ranked arcane triggered (which would mean you would have both effects if the second one didn't override the effect of the other).
