Very interesting. So bucket 2-19 are basically always flat and the more AC you get, the hits from the max hit bucket get transfered to the min hit bucket. I would have expected a smoother increase in the second half of the buckets.

So that means if your parse flattened the max hits you're at or above the squelch number for that mob.
That's what it looks like to me too.

So 63 spell AC did nothing even though you're far below squelch point? That's odd.
No, I don't think that's the right way to look at it. I had the spell AC on for every graph I've posted here. So it's better to think that, for example, the graph showing equal numbers of max-hit and min-hit is best thought of as being at (106 worn AC plus 63 spell AC). Maybe that's equivalent to 169 worn AC and 0 spell AC, I'm not sure.

I guess it is probable that for most group content, the softcap is mostly inconsequential (unless you're a heavy twink) since you'll reach the squelch point way before you reach the soft cap and charting the squelch points at various mob levels would be more useful. High end raid mobs probably cannot be squelshed even with the soft cap reached.
That's my conclusion too.
