If you want to be strictly accurate, the damage caps are 10, 14, and 30, in the sense that the game caps effective weapon base damage, not actual damage dealt. If you give a Throneblade of the Ykesha to a level 1 character, as he levels it'll count as a 10/51 weapon, then 14/51, 30/51, and at level 30 he'll finally get the full 33/51 out of it. This distinction might seem minor (and in practice, it is), but knowing it will explain why high-strength melee types like Ogres commonly achieve maximum hits for 30+ damage during the teens.
