Camelot Grab Bag Q&A

Mythic's Sanya Thomas has written up another Grab Bag Q&A on the Camelot Herald. This week, she answers questions about in-game racial conflict, mercenary styles, leveling artifacts, and more. A snippet:
Q: The new items (from ToA) that increase the cap of any ability: Do they actually give an increase to the stated ability? (For example: the Ancient Wrought Hauberk has a "Bonus to Constitution attribute bonus cap: 5." Does it actually add anything to Constitution?)

A: From the Item Mistress: " The Bonus to (Stat) attribute cap does not increase the stat itself. It does raise the cap on the amount of +Stat items the player will be able to equip. For example, a level 50 player is normally capped at +75 Constitution. However, if they add an item with a Bonus to Constitution bonus cap: 5, they will now be able to equip items totaling +80 Con and receive the full 80 points."
