INT Caster Combat Skills
 

Is a skill like Defense for an INT caster calc'd like this for level caps?

(level x 4) + 5

I'm not sure about the max for each level, but I believe defense tops out at 145 for int casters.

defense/offense are level * 5, anyway

not level * 5 + 5

Int casters have lower caps, period, on defensive and offensive skills. 145 sounds about right for defense/dodge, and I believe the weapon skills top out at 120.

I'm wondering what the answer is to the original question. At lv 35 my defense skill as a necromancer seems to be capped at 120, when my per level limit should be past the accepted cap of 145 in most equations. It seemed better to keep the answer to this thread than create another asking the same question.

Only weapon skills are (Level * X) + X, where:

X = 5 if you're a melee class,
X = 4 if you're a priest class,
X = 3 if you're an arcane class

Defense/Offense are Level * 5 regardless of class. The only difference between classes is the hard caps.

I guess that 121st point is just a pain to get then. I was getting at least a point per kill tanking light blues below 120 then tanked 15 or 20 kills past 120 with out a skill up.
