AC softcap and low level hardcap discussion

[DeathsSilkyMist]

The next test I am going to do is the level 60 AC softcap for Shamans. This is to determine if any of the EQEMU numbers are accurate. If they are, there is a stronger chance the others may be correct too.

I am going to do a test at 177 AC, 200 AC, and 300 AC.

If the 200 AC softcap with 0.23 diminishing returns is correct, the amount of damage reduced by going from 177 to 200 should be roughly the same as 200 to 300, as 100 AC over the softcap would be reduced to 23.

I may also do a shield test with 223 AC, 23 of which is shield AC. If the softcap increase from a shield is 1 AC to 1 Softcap at 60, I should see similar results to the 300 AC test.
