You can only use 2 of the exact same item ID.
Bonus stats are removed - I haven't tried scrolls, but it resets Reverse items to clean level 1.
ed: tried scrolled items, they become clean and average too.
Essentially it's like forging a new item, but the ingredients are 2 of that item, and you can't use any stimulators, jewels, etc.
At this point, the profession system seems to be discarding the concept of being able to make useful items entirely. If you want to make something above average, with stats you can't get by hunting it, do it before Chaos.
It's definitely a boon for starting players - makes it a lot easier to obtain potential'd items with mesos. But it is useless to the high level crowd, who has already scrolled gear they're not going to get rid of.
On another note, watch the minimap when you're in the Orbis tower. If you stand on a platform that's not on the minimap, you'll DC.
