1. Does the Melle damage mitigation from all the different professions stack?
2. How does Damage mitigation work exactly?
3. How does Melle defense work? assuming it stacks

Melee mitigation doesn't stacked. The highest level of mitigation you can have is 3 no matter how many melee professions you have.
Melee mitigation 3 is a 60% dmg range decrease of a weapon.
For example take a stun baton with 100-250 dmg. The damage range of this weapon is 150 (250-100 = 150). Take that 150 and decrease it by the 60% of melee mit 3 and you get 60.
Take that 60 and add it to the min damage of the 100-250 dmg stun baton and you get a 160. So against a person with melee mit 3, it's like you are using a 100-160 dmg stun baton.

On second thought could someone just link a sticky that will answer all this.

Im not talking about damage mitigation. Im talking about the skill mod melee defense like the kind you gain in 0/0/0/4 pistoleer skill tree if im not mistaken it adds +40 melee defense. When I was reffering to toughness I was reffering to things like unarmed toughness.

Thanks I thought I was either going crazy for a moment or just really horrible at asking questions. On second thought both are prolly true.

Melee defense is defense against melee attacks. The more melee defense you have, the more melee attacks will miss you.
Melee toughness is a direct % decrease in melee damage. Someone with +50 melee toughness would have all melee dmg done to them decreased by 50%.

Each melee profession gets it's own melee toughness and they don't stack. TKs get unarmed toughness. Swordsmen get 2handed toughness. Fencers get 1handed toughness. Pikemen get polearm toughness. You only use the toughness if you are holding the specified weapon.
Tk's get the most melee toughness, pikemen get the least.
