I have spent the better part of my day going through old threads about whether defense is capped, and while the general consensus seems to be that it is not, I was hoping to get confirmation of this, somehow. The closest I can find to showing that the bars do not indicate exact defense is using the ancient plate armor, which of course extends further than halfway if looking at equipment as a whole.
That being said, could someone from OOO, or someone who has solid data confirm that the normal max UV on my VPS is a worthwhile UV? It seems to be, but I'd like to know for sure.
There have been tests done that show that ancient plate protects more than volcanic plate from normal attacks. Therefore having a normal defense UV would do something but I've heard that how much protection you get diminishes.
