So I took a gander
this thread about AC.
On page two, Haynar says:
"And we use a softcap system, not a hardcap based system.
Warriors get a 45% return above softcap.
Adding a shield increases ur softcap."
When Haynar says that p99 uses a softcap system, is he talking about a worn AC softcap or a cumulative AC softcap?
Just for reference: In the current era on live, worn AC was hardcapped and shield AC wasn't special. Cumulative AC was softcapped for melee classes but hardcapped for priests and casters.
