There were two patches that affected ranger's melee skill caps:

Rangers:

Last week we completed in-depth testing of melee and defensive skills
for all melee-centric classes. In the course of these tests we
determined that the ranger class was not performing to its intended
level, and have made the following changes:

- The "Jolt" spell has had its casting time reduced.
- The Skillcap on Dodge and Parry has been increased.

- Rangers have their Double Attack skill cap raised to 245. They have
also gained an innate offensive bonus that starts at level 55 and
increases until level 60. Ranger's Defense skill cap has been raised to
220, and their Riposte skill cap has been raised to 185.


Note that the first patch also introduced epics so it should've been effective on p99 already. Like OP stated, right now ranger's dodge and parry and still stuck at their pre-50 caps, and it needs to be looked into. The second patch wasn't out until almost Luclin. Guess we'll have to wait a while for defense and riposte increase.
