Thanks. What about the second part of my question?

Wasn't it 1.6 that removed the caps? 1.7 must've been like what half a year ago at least? We're at 2.1.something now
1.7 is what came with IC. Not that long ago.
And yes, soft caps were removed with 1.6. There is still hardcaps though (like for resistence).
Pretty certain we were way past 1.7 with IC, since Wrothgar was 2.1 IIRC
Im confused I can hit 37k resist so how is the cap 32?

exceeding the cap is possible but there is no additional damage mitigation (in PvE)Im confused I can hit 37k resist so how is the cap 32?

You should change your CP around a bit, or use some infused/divines traits instead of defending. or drop armor buff from your bar (unless using armor master set)Spoilerpressume you probably have 75 CP in the steed and a fair few into spell resist and armor to get this? putting them into hardy and elemental defender might be a better use if you are exceeding the cap. Damage reduction and and resistances do stack, but over capping resistance is a waste
unless this is some kind of armor set proc like armor master, mark of the pariah etc.
No, it won't do anything as it's above the hard cap for damage mitigation. The only exception is if you're hit by an effect that reduces your resistance. So if you're at 37K resistance and you're hit by an effect that reduces your resistance by 5K, then you'll still be at the hard cap for mitigation despite the debuff to your resistance. That's the only benefit to having more than 32K resistance (and yes, I know that the cap is actually 32.9K, I'm just using 32K for simplicity).
It is armor master so will the extra resist count?
