So many people have and will continue to dabble in fencer for the defense mods. When the combat patch goes in, will they stack anymore or is their a cap and how much is it? Is this affecting melee/ranged defense or defense vs blind, dizzy, KD, etc.

My understanding, from reading the boards, is that they will stack, but there is a cap.
I don't know the caps, but dodge is rumoured to be 125. Thunderheart stated that he thought that was what it would be, but never confirmed it.
So Master fencer + Pistoleer 1000 should max out dodge.

Dodge, Counter-attack, and block will all be capped at +125. Also both melee and ranged defense will be capped at +125. All other defenses vs. status effects, i.e. defense vs. stun, will not be capped. Makes me sad, I'm really gonna miss my +210 Fencer/Pistoleer. /mournthelossandmoveon

Personaly, I think they should of just changed the system to this...
What ever weapon you have equiped you will get the defences of that weapon in its elite profession, + The bonuses from the starter professions you have or have mastered. It would of made it alot simpler, an then the only think you can stack ontop of that is SEA's an Defence foods. That would of make it alot easier to understand, but noooo dev's don't think of simple ways they think of retarded ways to make players scarmble an figure out what they mean. ^-^

You're right Eva, that would make it alot simpler. However, one of the things that sets SWG so far apart from the rest of the MMORPG's out there is that you ARE able to be many different professions at the same time and to be really good requires you to figure out which mixture of which professions yeilds the greatest benefit. Sure, sometimes I wish I could just say "Hi, I'm a Master Fencer" and have the same stats as other fencers, but theni think to myself "If do a little bit of TKA, a little bit of pistoleer, and also master brawler, I'm gonna kick some real ***edit***. So, even though it would be simpler to change the game to how you described, it would take away a large part of what makes SWG so awesome.
