do you get melee mitigation and all defence mods when you are equiped with a ranged weapon?

I stand corrected and very happy about it too. I see now, having read the Dev answers in the post on the Pistoleer forums, that the mitigation types do stack (i.e. melee & ranged).

problem is , the devs said it would not be stacking, and lied.

its a bug or the devs lied.

that was clarified as well...

when they said it wouldn't stack, they meant:

melee mitigation from TK wouldn't stack with melee mitigation from fencer and reduce it further...

melee and ranged aren't stacking, you just have both active

The way that I read it (and the way the Dev exampled it) was that you can use a TKM melee mitigation with a Pistoleer Range Mitigation together, however a Pistoleer Ranged mitigation doesn't stack with a Rifleman's Ranged Mitigation. The higher of the 2 would be what was used.

It is my understanding that TKA melee mitigation would only be in effect if you were unarmed. If you are using a ranged weapon you would get Ranged Mitigation Defenses. I could be misunderstanding the mitigation aspect of the game, but that is my current thought process on the matter.

Once you get a mitigation, it is active no matter what weapon you hold, UNLIKE dodge, counterattack, block.

For confirmation, look in the pistoleer forums at the sticky post where the correspondent got his questions answered from some dev types.
