Anyway, my question is this.
My Necro uses Defensive Bone Staff Of Fortitude
15-22
Energy + 10
Halves Casting Time Of Death Magic Spells (20%)
Halves Recharge Time Of Death Magic Spells (20%)
Armor + 5
Health + 30
My Monk uses Defensive Holy Staff Of Fortitude
15-22
Energy + 10
Halves Casting Time Of Healing Spells (20%)
Halves Recharge Time Of Healing Spells (20%)
Armor + 5
Health + 30
The armor and health upgrades on both staffs come from the maximum upgrades.
Now, I'm wondering. As you can see I use the defensive staff head. If I change this to a hale staff head (+30), I'd get
HEALTH +30
HEALTH +30
My question is, would this stack? I don't wanna waste a ton of money finding out if it doesnt.
And also, would you change it to have Health +60 or keep Health + 30/Armor +5?
Thanx guys!<

First answer to your question is yes you can get +60 health if that's what you need.
I found that useing an Insightful +5 energy Staff head with the +30 health Staff wrap of fortitude is a better combination because of the energy boost needed in spell casting and still having the +30 health to help counter a skill Rune negitive health penalty placed on your armor. What ever you chose is more prefernce on your part and what your character Build is because you may prefer the +20% to Enchantments over the +30 health if your a Necromancer for increased damage on enimies or increased hex life on them.
Below is a list you can use to help with what is available for staffs upgrades.
Staff Bonuses are as follows: these are the Base Bonuses found on the staff
itself and can't be changed or altered but may have up to any 2 on a single staff.
1)Shorten Condition Duration----Reduces The Duration of a condition on you up to 20%
2)Improves Casting Speed--------5-10% chance to Halve your spell Casting speed of any spells
3)Improves Casting Speed--------10-20% chance to have the casting speed of spells from a particular attuibute
4)Improve spell Recharge--------5-10% Chance to halve your spell recharge times
5)Improve Spell Recharge--------10-20% chance to halve the recharge time of spells from a particular attribute
Below are the Upgrades you can add or replace to suit your style of play.
Staff Prefixes (Heads): can use only 1 per staff in any combination with any 1 staff wrap
1)Defensive Staff head ---------adds Armor Bonus +4 or +5
2)Insightful Staff head --------adds Energy Bonus +2,+3,+4 or +5
3)Hale Staff Head---------------adds Health Bonus +15 to +30
Staff Suffixes (Wrappings) can use only 1 per staff
1)Staff Wrapping of Warding-----adds +4 to +7 Armor vs Elementail attacks
2)Staff Wrapping of Shelter-----adds +4 to +7 Armor vs Physical Attacks
3)Staff wrapping of Defence-----adds +4 to +5 Armor Vs everything
4)Staff Wrapping of X Slaying---adds +15-30% vs X (a creature Type)
5)Staff Wrapping of Enchanting--Allows Emchantments to last 10-20% longer
