Yeah I am confused about that too, but there are multiple possibilities:
1. He didn't want people to know, so he denied it. The devs don't give away all their secrets.
2. Perhaps it was added later. The 2014 post was Velious beta I believe, so the 289 worn ac clamp might not have been active or added at the time.
3. The way Haynar was testing AC might have involved guide tools, cheats, a separate program that runs the code outside the client, etc. Sometimes when testing with those methods, you get incorrect results because the code being run is different from what the players are using. So he may have thought it was correct.

If AC was hardcapped until very end velious (and only soft capped after this for melee) it could be that a) the classes we're testing on (hybrids and priests) are not considered melee for these purposes or b) there is a era based timelock which Haynar was testing outside of, but hasn't been properly activated on r/b/g so we're still getting pre-softcap era results?
