That's not how it works here though - we have quite a generous softcap. Apparently someone found evidence that late velious the hard cap system was eased somewhat, despite what EQ Developer Kavhok claims (that it was hard until PoPish).

Nice! Relieved to hear that, since soft cap allows for more carrot on the stick. If nothing else, it definitely seemed like that change was their intention for quite a while so late-Velious is plausible. Interesting that they were wanting to add innate block chance to shields for classes that could also dual wield.
