Cap for damage reduction?

HI

i am currently playing my longtime parked Zealot again (after i made the
Oath Axe a few days ago)

and i was planning on giving him my Stormshield, currently he is also
wearing a String of Ears and Vamp Gaze...
I remember there was a cap for phys dam reduction (could it be that it
was 50%)
if so wearing all 3 doesn't make sense (except for the other mods of course)

Not that kind of cap. Cap as in maximum.

ia am sorry for the confusion i caused, but i am no native speaker, so
that may be the cause for those little slip-ups
