I know there is a cap on melee/ranged defense as well as block, dodge, and counter. However, I did not hear about a cap on defenses vs. Knockdown, Posture Change, Blind, Dizzy, or Stun. So my question is, if you have tons of defenses against KD, does that mean its harder to get KD'd or you can recover faster?

Defense vs KD= Harder to KD
Defense vs Dizzy = reduced effect, doesn't seem to effect whether or not dizzy lands or not. Perhapseven bugged. In my experience it seems less likely to fall over when standing up from a knockdown, or to cause the person who is dizzied to be knockdowned less often due to posture changing.
Defense vs Stun = Harder to stun
Defense vs Blind = Harder to blind.

And no cap on these particular defenses either BTW. Contrary to what seems to be popular belief.

I been trying to look... but can't seem to find anything...
Ok... I know the defenses vs whatever.... but what is the difference between def. vs. and melee/ranged defense? is it better to have a higher ranged and melee defense? Can someone help me please? Thanks

Melee/ranged defenses are to-hit modifiers, i.e. the higher the value, the less likely you are to be hit by an opponent. The defense vs. state defenses are modifiers that help you resist certain state changes like KD, dizzy, stun, etc.

Ok, ranged and melee defense cap at 125, no more going over that. And that determines how easily hit you are, so if it's high, people will miss you, and if its low you're likely to get smacked around a bit.
Now the state defenses, like DefvStun for example cap at I think 50, or 75, someone check me on that. Anyways, they protect you from an opponent landing a status effect on you, so if you have a high DefvStun, someone will probably have a hard time landing a stun effect on you.

Been getting mixed answers about the defenses...
If I have Defense vs. (Stun/Dizzy/Knockdown/etc.) from say , Pistoleer. If I take for instance , I take the Defense vs. (Stun/Dizzy/Knockdown/etc.) linesin Fencer , will they stack if im using either weapon?
