    Default Dodge, dodge cap, maximum dexterity bonus

    There are many ways to raise dodge, dodge cap in the game.
    But, there aren't many ways to raise the maximum dexterity bonus in-game.

    Maximum dexterity bonus CAPS your dodge regardless of dodge or dodge cap.

    Can you introduce some more way to raise maximum dexterity bonus in-game?
    Or can you add a Maximum dexterity bonus if some feature gives more dodge and dodge cap, too?

    I think that's often by design...if mdb were that cheap, then there would be less reason to wear light or even med armor. Not being able to hit dodge cap is part of the trade-off for higher prr and ac and especially no mrr cap

    Dodge is supposed to be more valuable for light armor builds with naturally high mdb. Dodge cap is supposed to be more valuable to unarmored builds with no mdb at all

    Excuse me for a moment while I shamelessly indulge my self interest here...

    I'd love to see more max dex/dodge for my main, who is a tank. Iirc (on vacation atm, can't log in to check) I've got +24 max dex on a tank specced for heavy armor. Straight fighter with the max dex boost from stalwart defender tree, max dex bonus blue augment, Dodge/mobility/spring attack feats, and probably something else I'm forgetting.

    There's an entire line of reaper enhancements for dodge that adhere to the cap.

    The max dex augment is min level 20... Maybe we could get a +3 version for 28, and a +4 at 36 or something in the future?
