Im torn between what shirt to wear

I have one that gives me +4 meele defense (im over the cap any ways)

and plus 15 stun defense (Gives me 30 stun defense in total)...

Or should I wear my muscle shirt whichgives me

+15 to injury treament (I heard/though this made stim heals heal stronger).

Muscle shirt looks much cooler

I would switch back and forth depending what I was doing, I would use the stun shirt for battles and the wound treatment for all other occations non-combat. Just my two cents though

Injury treatment indeed makes your stims heal more damage. Wound treatment is what increases your ability to remove wounds (though if you're a doc just to heal yourself and you're a TKM, you don't need to heal wounds thanks to meditate).

Stun defense is nice, especially if you are doubling your stun defense with the shirt. I'd only use the injury treatment shirt if healing yourself with stims was really crucial to you.

You do realise that bioclothing/attachments can take you over the cap?

The caps on melee defense, ranged defense, dodge, counterattack, and block are hard caps. You can't go over +125 even with attachments or bio clothes.

Atama, do you have a link with that information?

AFAIK you can go over melee defense cap with attachments, bioclothes, food and squadleader skills.

IMO the most valuable brawler shirts are BE's +10->15 warcry +10->15 intimidate shirts, these usually have 1 to 3 open sockets

Here's a link from TH discussing changes from Publish 7, the one that introduced defense caps. Note he calls the caps on defense "hard" caps, emphasizing the fact that you can't bypass them.

Please show a link where it is stated that you can bypass a "hard" cap by any means.

Well, hum,

Defensive Modifiers will have a hard cap with profession template stacking

Subject to interpretation.

and for the shirt, intimidation/warcry is what I wear all the time.

The pants I switch between intimidation and melee defense.

Ok.. lets see now.. the closest thing i've found to an official statement is this thread:
http://forums.station.sony.com/swg/board/message?board.id=game_guides&message.id=187929

This one has a answer from a correspondent, not quite as good as TH or a dev...
Furthermore TH actually said: "Defensive Modifiers will have a hard cap with profession template stacking.", this indicates at least to me that the "hard" cap only applies when stacking skills in the template, not other modifiers.

"What made you change your mind atama?"

I learned different.

I made a mistake in that post because I thought what you did.
