Hard caps

First I'd like to say that I am very annoyed and I want to put my freaking head through my wall. Why is it so difficult for me to find something that explains a list of hard caps like crit chance being capped at 60%, cost reduction at 80%, resistance at 33k, etc. Then I find this stupid website that says softcaps are hard caps were removed in 1.6 and now I have put a hole in my desk.

My question is, can anyone please give me some information on hard caps or provide a link that has a list? I looked all over the forums, looked all over on google, not a damn thing.

    All I can add to this is that armor and spell resist cap is 33,100. Which is 50% mitigation.

    Well, if you were to put your head through a wall. A Hard Cap would be important to protect your head.

    Alright guys don't start roasting me... take this seriously and help me out because I'm getting really tired of looking through google to find 0 information on what I want to know. Then I find posts asking for information, (like this) only to find no information given other than armor resistance or "there are no hard caps", on posts that are a year old...

    Only thing with a hard cap is spell and physical resistance, anything reducing cost has diminishing returns but no cap. Anything that adds thing dont have hard caps per say but there is only so much you can add to a characters stats going up with the limit of gear slots, which of course is an obviouse and necessary thing.

    Resistance values are hard-capped at 33150 . Critical Resistance is hard capped at 3300 . Those numbers mean 50% mitigation . This 50% can be increased with bonuses other than ''Physical Resistance , Spell Resistance and Critical Resistance'' but they get their share from diminishing returns . Click here for more info . As far as I know , there is nothing else that has a hard-cap including critical chance/damage , weapon/spell damage , base stats etc.
