This effect is multiplicative with normal -MDT, i.e. if you have 50% MDT already, you do .5 * .55 = .275, or 72.5% magic damage reduction.

Is there a difference here? They seem to read exactly the same.

Vallation is self targeted, Valliance is AoE.
They don't share timers but have same recast and duration.
If you use Leiment with either one up the magic defense effect is lost but the fast cast effect will remain (Inspiration Merits).
If you use Leiment correctly and reapply after absorbing its a non issue.
