By NO means all inclusive but a good start (and as much as I could stand typing on my phone).
100% lrc for casters, excluding weaving & chiv (not a necessity but a plus). U won’t fail due to regs at 100.
40 lmc cap for most caster that use med. Hard caps @55 for non-med armor. Studded/Bone gives +3 per piece while metal armor gives +1 & slight resistance to stam loss when damaged that stacks the more metal u use (I like 3 metal pieces on my dexer, personal preference but entirely dependent on the template). While the added lmc doesn’t show on armor it’s clearly visible on ur gump.
2/6 casting cap for casters, excluding chiv that caps at 4/6 or if ur magery is 69.9 or lower (unless they changed that, I’m unaware of a change).
60% ssi is a hard cap including gear & wep. U need to figure ur wep speed & stam then adjust accordingly to get ur swings to the 1.25 sec cap. Take into consideration stam loss that occurs from taking damage so when stam drops off ur max u can still keep ur 1.25 swing speed @ cap. There’s plenty of calculators around that will help.
Excluding refinements (if u want to try them READ up) HCI 45 DCI 45 caps - a must for dexers. 45 DCI is a must for casters but only if ur using a mage wep, wrestling, parry, or anat/eval, otherwise not important. Casters w/o the previous should try to fit on casting focus.
Casting focus hard caps at 17% if you have GM Inscription otherwise it caps at 12%.
HPR hard caps at 18. MR has severe diminishing returns at 30. SR is irrelevant in Tram (use wep leeching if no SR or metal armor) but some helps in Fel if u don’t have focus.
No cap on SDI in PvM is KEY, load on as much as u can. PvP SDI
@CovenantX covered.
U can over cap str so cursed doesn’t drop hit points so much. Once u hit 150 str the gump won’t show any higher but when cursed the game takes over cap str into consideration when determining the amount that stat will drop.
And, thats long enough & more typing then I can stand on a phone. Yes, I missed a lot and yes others have said some of it already. Didn’t read every post entirely so apologies if I stepped on anyone’s toes.
Hope it helps.
