Damage cap does not go away at 30 due to newest patch. What I posted is the current max base dmg caps.

[Pyrion]

Priest do not have a lower damage cap, so that image above is wrong. Just leveled a cleric, so i do know.

Code

• Haynar: Using sneak while FD will no longer work as a memblur.
• Haynar: Entities will be dropped from an NPC's hatelist after 10 minutes of adding no additional hate.
  
• Haynar: Implemented class specific level based weapon damage caps. Thanks Demonstar55 from EQEmu.
• Haynar: Added "lazy aggro" behavior for NPCs. If they get too far from their target, they will no longer chase.
• Haynar: Merchants that face their target when hailed, will now have a delay before their heading returns to normal.
• Haynar: Fixed blind to function better when someone moves in and out of range. Moving back into combat range, and the mob should stop fleeing. Going out of range they should start fleeing again. Casting blind on an NPC with someone in combat range, will no longer cause mobs to flee right away.
• Haynar: Altered how sneak pulling works on social aggro. Mobs on same faction, should no longer be fooled as easily.
• Haynar: Linkdead players will no longer take faction hits.
• Haynar: Added witness checks for beneficial spells.
• Haynar: Added a 30 sec check for dropping aggro if beyond chase distance.

Later on in the thread Demonstar posts(https://www.project1999.com/forums/s...&postcount=160) the actual code used which is where that table is derived from. Casters and Melee conform to the table I do not have a priest to test it on but not sure why they would say they implemented something when they didn't.

[Caiu]

Apparently both us and the devs are incorrect so more testing is needed!

[Caiu]

Dmg is capped by base dmg not the result of the dmg formula. Not sure why you guys keep saying the devs are wrong but I get it the dmg caps previously in place were there for a long time.

So brand new you're using twinked weapons? [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

If you're a tank you're not meant to be doing huge damage, just holding aggro mainly and helping a bit after that.

If you're a rogue or monk (or a ranger) the damage just keeps building as you level.

19 is the last capped level that I remember but I'm not big on numbers - just doing the right thing for my group (tanking,taunting,etc)

Thanks for the reply, I'm mostly just trying to figure out if this game is for me based on what I like to do in other games. However, I should have mentioned this is my first Multiplayer Online Role Playing Game EVER. So phrases like twinked, tank, aggro, and taunting are all lost on me.

When I play single player RPGs, I enjoy making my character very powerful as early on as possible so then I can beat enemies that I'm not technically supposed to be able to yet, hence my question about the damage cap.

Twinked - Low level character with higher level equipment.

Tank - The tough classes that can take most damage from monsters.

Taunt - Act of drawing and holding monster's attention.

Aggro - Aggressive? Means you got on to a monster's sight, it will chase you or you pulled off monster's attention on to you.
