skill caps?
the only skill caps in the game are +125 for dodge/counterattack/block/melee defense/range defenseand +100 for weapon speed.

I mean those that you just stated. Im curious where the information comes from. Someone else posted a new thread with the same question. How do you know for certain in every situation that those caps hold firm? What tests were done to determine the caps?

A while ago people were stacking defenses and becoming god-like, so the devs made a hard cap at 125 for ranged/melee defense, and dodge/counterattack/block. They told us this. And in game it seems to be fully implemented. You can get more than 125, but it won't do anything else, which seems to be the case in game, supporting what the devs told us.
About the speed cap, we know the equation, it has been confirmed by the devs and appears correct in game. The important thing is, the nature of the equation makes it so that once you have 100 speed, you will fire any weapon, and special once every second. The graph based on your speed mod is exponential, and it's only because of the 1 second all weapon speed cap that you go that fast. But it's not like speed past 100 is capped like defenses are, it's just that it simply does not, and cannot do any more.

what if you have a speed mod of 99...will it make a difference if you have another +1?

For just about any profession, you're going to cap out around +85 or +90. Its best to use a DPS calculator to find out, but with pistols you'll be capped at about +85, I believe.

actually, with my DE-10 at 3.5 speed, according to the speed calculators posted and stickied up above, I'd need a speed mod of 93 or 94, forget which ... of course, this is by far my slowest gun, so I wouldn't need to go further.
