one question does the defense vs knockdown +50 from pistoleer come in to affect when im using my VK"s ???

lunatin, from what I understand so far, yes. I think Atama may have missed that in his list, but again, this post is a collaboration so if anybody can verify any statements, please do. The more confirmation we have the more confident we can be that these things work as we think they do.

I will try and add a more complete list for us to look at and confirm.

Thanks.

Yeah I forgot the defense vs KD, which is pretty bad because I have pistoleer and it helped me get my +120 defense.

Really, the only things that won't stack with TK are dodge/block/counterattack and anything that's profession or weapon specific. Just check out SWG Character Builder and pick whatever skills you plan on getting, then hit the "View Report" link and it tallies it all up for you.

The maximum effective state defense is +100.

What this collaboration has brought us so far:

Below is a list showing what can be stacked and what professions
you can get it from.

For each defense shown in blue, you can look across and see what profession
has it. If the profession is green, it has that defense and can be stacked with
any other defense that the profession is green.

Hope this is useful reference. Maybe it can be expanded in order to
answer more questions or reworked to be more useful. (as always, please speak up if you see mistakes or
have further questions)

For more detailed information on how much you get from the different levels of each
profession, go to the SWG Character Builder

The main 5 defenses(Melee, Ranged, Dodge, Counterattack and Block)capped at +125
It sounds like there is also a +95 limit on the state defenses (always allowing for a small chance for the state to stick on you).
NOTE: Dodge, Counterattack and Block do not apply to TKA. TKA uses Defense Acuity.
NOTE: Mitigation does not stack.

I have not heard anything on Combat Equilibrium yet. Anybody know? My guess is no, but not really sure.
Please bring up anything else that should be added or is missing.

Thanks.

Combat equilibrium stacks, though I'm not sure if it can be used when you have a ranged weapon.

Once again, every skill stacks if it has the same name. Polearm speed won't stack with unarmed speed of course, nor will unarmed toughness stack with 1hand toughness. That's because the skill names are different.

Thanks (again) Atama!

I edited the first post of this thread to hold the combined info, figured it might be easier for people to just look at it and then decide if they want to read through the discussion.

Mitigation doesn't stack because it's not a skill bonus (despite what some places like the Star Wars Galaxies Character Builder think).

Check your skills page in-game sometime. Note where mitigation (any kind) appears. Not under skills, but under abilities. Each level of mitigation is an ability, and higher levels replace lower levels (of the same kind of mitigation).
