Yes it caps at 10k Armor. Mdef = +7k, x4xxE = +4k, Jedi Iniate = +2k

You could do it and have some really good defense, but other skills such as offense and mezzing will suffer.

What would 0200 FA do? Would that meet the cap?

x2xxE would give you +2k but the FC on FA1 is insane. If you want force armor. go for FA2. FA1 isn't worth it imo.

Yes FA1 would still cap but FA1 has horrible force costs

Actually, it would not. A Master Defender has +70 Innate Armor. FA1 gives you +20 more, meaning +90, or 9000 armor or 59% resists. The cap is at 10k. If you are MDef and get FA2, you are missing out on 1k of Innate because of that cap. You get +40 from FA2, but since you can only get to +100, and not 110, it may be a bit of a waste of skillpoints....I'm not sure. You will get to the cap of 60% resists, but it's only 1% more than goingwith FA1...although the cost on it is much worse than FA2. Seems like ifyou are more interested in capping Innate armor or getting close, you can do Defender 44xx and FA2 and get to 9400.

I did try a template with MDef/4202 Enhancer and the cost was really not worth it. I think for the most part, if you are MDef, don't bother with getting more force armor. There is no point in hindering one of our benefits, and that's keeping force pool high as we don't pay for our armor, even though it may be slightly less than someone with say 4040 Def/3402 Enh.

If you want my opinion, with the amount of skillpoints you have for a whole tree in enhancer, I suggest getting 4000 instead of wasting force cost and extra unneeded armor when you're already a master defender. But that's just me.
