These are questions that have been floating around for a while.People always seem to say different things, and I would really like themanswered definitively.

If you are not certain or just speculating, I would appreciate it if you did NOT reply.Iam searchingfor answers from someone who has:1) TESTED them and has data, or 2) has received a definite response from a developer.

On that note, an answer from a dev directly would be great.

1) Secondary defenses (dodge, counterattack, block):

From my understanding (and please correct me if I am wrong), the secondary defenses kick in AFTER it has been determined whether an attack

Do we have a positive answer on whether melee and ranged defense have a cap? If so, is there an intrinsic

2) Does melee/ranged accuracy have a cap?

3) Do bleeds stack? (e.g. my mind hit 2 and mind hit 1 on swordsman, and mind shot 1 and mind shot 2 on rifleman)

The only one I know for sure is bleeds - As long as they're from different sources, they stack (Mindshot1/Mindshot2 or Mindhit1/Mindhit2 would stack, but 2 uses of Mindhit1 would just reset the bleed timer) Same goes for DoTs - If you have 6 different Mind Poison Pikes, you could switch between all 6 of them hitting until they stick (althoughit would be pretty hard to see When they actually stick seeing as all you'd see was the Poison icon from the first stick, you'd have to watch for the tick amounts.) for an end result of6 stacked mind poisons, all ticking for different amounts with small delays in between - because they are all from different sources, they all stack up.

I could comment on what I believe to be primary/secondary def mods and make some comments about accuracy, but I'm not sure 100% about these things so I won't I can tell you that Melee Defence/Ranged Defence, Block/Dodge/Counterattack are all Hard capped at 125, and that only food can take your skills above these caps.

The bleed timer is only reset if the same attack is used AND results in a higher damage bleed. Otherwise the second use of the attack does not affect the bleed at all.

And to clarify, technically Mindhit1 and Mindhit2 do not stack, however they cause two SEPERATE bleeds at the same time (you'll see the bleed tick twice). So yeah in effect, they stack. This applies to Healthhit, Actionhit, Healthshot, Actionshot, and Mindshot as well as long as you use both the 1 and 2 level of the attack.

As for the defense caps, all I know is that the cap for any attachments is +25.. but I know they can still be raised higher than that if you find a way to get more of the mod (i.e. food).
