4- He's incredibly pedant about the use of softcap/hardcap terms. He's technically right but from a practical standpoint it is basically a hardcap for most players, especially in this 2hander era.

What was tested in the ranger thread is you have D20 distribution, D1 being min hits and D2 max hits. The more AC you have the more Max hits get sent into the Min hit bucket, while D2 to D19 is...

Nice findings, good to finally see more parses about this.

I think in the ranger thread we saw that it helps reaching squelch point but it won't let you go beyond like a shield would. It was like 1 parse though, more testing would need to be done.

Last time I was in SK there was a guy called "quillionnaire" or something like that doing MQs for people. Might want to try to track him down.

My bad, that was a big shortcut. I was a little too much in my ranger's scenario. Ranger EC bis on a somewhat balanced build will be around 200 AC, which appears to be the squelch point on a 45 mob....

1. I assume raw AC cap means worn as opposed to displayed. It would be a dick move to introduce a new concept without defining it.

2. Agreed

3. Probable, I came to the same assumption.

Thanks for running the parses!

Couple observations:

Haynar formula yields 55ac softcap at level 5 but you seemed capped at 45ac until you put on a shield.

The 45ac cap seems to invalidate...

So far we only found hardcaps on AC and class was irrelevant. War/sk/ranger capped at 200 worn on a level 45 mob and ranger (and druid?) at 180 on a level 40 mob. That is despite haynar himself...

Most people will not have a pocket shaman and much less a primal weapon so unless you know for a fact you're headed that route I wouldn't bank on that at character creation.

We know from the sogundordor parses a level 45 mobs will have a 200ac hardcap against them. Bcbrown found 180ac @40.

I haven't read anywhere it gets removed at 51? I'm assuming it just ramps up for a cap higher than 385.

By raw I guess he meant worn.

He stated "lower level" was below 51.

50*6+25=325 @lvl50. Which means at least 385 @60.

He says there's no hardcap so I always assumed that cap was a softcap. I...

The softcap formula gives you like 385 worn at 50. I'm not even sure a BiS ranger reaches that. I don't think this is the issue.

It also seems AC is mob level capped so I guess you'd only see...

So far it seems like rangers take more damage because their lower defense stat leads to taking more hits compared to warriors and knights.

If rangers take more hits that could technically mean AC...

Back then I've been in a couple guilds and there was no DKP system in any of them, mostly some form of NBG with officers deciding who gets what. Loot would get dilluted pretty badly.
