Cap on plus-skills in 1.10?

Cap on plus-skills in 1.10?

I remember back a while ago, that skills used to be capped at level 30, so no more than +10 to skills mattered. That might have been in D2 classic.

Is there a cap on skills in 1.10? I've read somewhere that a couple of specific skills are capped at like 25 or 30 or something. But in general, are most skills capped at 40, or 50, or 60 or whatever?


The most skills I can think of, for my trapassin at least, is 57:
20x natural skill clicks 20
10x grand skill charms 10
Annihus charm 1
2x +3 traps claw,+3 to specific trap skill 12
+3 trap circlet 3
+3 trap ammy 3
2x +1 skill ring 2
+1 skill belt 1
+2 skill armor 2
Battle command 1
Skill shrine 2
----------------------------------------
total 57

So I guess if it's capped at 60 its not a problem. OTOH, if its capped at 40.

I like skill-based builds and I am probably too focused on getting +skills for them. I might not use all of the above gear even if I had it all, but I know I would like to equip it at least once, just for a screen shot.

Thanks again for your help! :wave:

ps. Hmm it looks like my formatting didnt work too well. Sorry about that

I didn't know they were capped before
AFAIK there is no cap in skills
some of them have caps (like energy shield, maxed at 42 IIRC)

btw you could take out the anni, since it cant drop in SP

All skills cap at 99

There is a hard cap at 99 slvl but legitamately you can only get into the upper 50's in a given skill. There is a thread a few weeks old about what the highest a skill could legitamately get to everyone thought up outrageously hard items to get to spawn such as +2 assassin skills, +2 trap skills, and +3 LS for example on claws, note: these were able to be found on rares in previous patches but still extremely rare. and the top they were able to come up with was in the high 50's.

Basically consider there to be no cap if you play legitamately.

Edit: oh and for your example if you consider it to be a fire skill you can add another one for magefist's.

2x +3 traps claw,+3 to specific trap skill 12

Just working with their example.

 

[Pucho]

I know, I know, but he asked for the maximum +skills too
BTW that wasn't a correction uzziah, sorry if it bothers(sp?) you, that was not my intention

 

[Uzziah]

It's ok I just wanted you to know that I was just working with what they were looking at trap tree skills. I found the thread that was about most slvl a single skill could have. It was quite older then I thought it was, so please don't resurrect it.

Thanks. The more I think about it, the skill cap of 30 was probably back in D2 classic, when it was a lot harder to get +10 skills.

as +2 assassin skills, +2 trap skills, and +3 LS for example

In which patch did +All Skills, + Skill Tree and + Single Skill drop on one item? Can't remember any.

It was possible to drop in 1.09 according to drop calculators for affixes. But the probablity of the +all skills and +tree skills being on the same item is extremely small. Thus it is very hard to get or even find. I have never seen one but that doesn't mean it was impossible.

All skills cap at 99

They cap out at Slvl 255 actually, at least they did in 1.09. I don't expect them to change something like that though.

From my experience they are now capped at 99 (easy to test with a bunch of +7 all skill charms :uhhuh: ). No idea why (perhaps to stop the slvl 1000+ CB sorcs on Bnet...)
