Not sure if there's been a post/official reply on this yet. But I wanted to know if anyone/rep could tell us what SE plans to do with stats and ilevel increases in upcoming patches and level cap increase.

It seems like some of the stats that are %-based like Block Strength, Defiance, and crit rate are eventually going to get to a point where it needs to be capped.

For example, how much mitigation will an ilevel 150 shield block? 45-50%? Right now with the Noct Hoplon and higher strength is it around 30-35% block? That seems like it would be hard to balance with boss fights unless we eventually get special stats on items. (will we? I hope so.)
