DS/CS/CB cap?

In pvp or pvm for that matter, is there a cap for the maximum percentage applied in game that is less than 100%? I doubt blizz would let you build it up to 100%, as this is not what I have observed in playing the game. Thanks in advance.

Deadly strike,critical strike ,crushing blow you mean? Afaik,there is no cap,you can have 100% of each. For example 100% of crushing blow means that each and every succesful hit you make deals a cb. Critical and deadly won't stack,game first checks for critical and then for deadly, which in theory means that if you have 100% critical,any amount of deadly is in excess but that's another issue.

For the 100% to work you must have it on one item. This is only possible through weapons using Lo runes. Ex. If you have a 50% on helm and a 50% on boots they will not just stack.

That's certainly not how I understand it. Are you confusing it with how Critical Strike works in conjunction with Deadly Strike?

You're wrong. If you have, say, 20% CB on weapon, 10% on gloves, 15% on boots, you will have total 45% CB for that specific weapon. And By the way, Lo in weapons gives Deadly Strike.

As for DS, yes, it can easily reach 100%. But to get double damage, you only need either CS or DS to be 100%, that's if you want to always have it. But it's impossible to legitly have 100% CS, whereas DS can easily be reached to 100% (DC+HL=100%)

There's no cap on them, besides 100%. So if you have 120% Deadly strike, it will work the same way as 100%, since 100% always triggers it.
