Default Limits on turn rate?

i know there is a cap on reload, dmg, speed etc at 100%, however i was wondering if anyone knew the cap debuffs? my rat is able to put somebody at -150% turn rate (break rudder (-50%), stc (-50% turn rate for NO and ft - i.e crew killed), vaporing -40% and cripple is -10% i think?

clearly -100% would be nothing but that would be like a super OP stun as i could keep it up for ~1minute. was wondering if any1 knew just how much you can debuff their turn rate before it stops having an effect or if its a debuff of your current turning % - i.e i put them at -50% so then the next debuff which also does -50% only does -25% of the original turn rate (i.e -50% of their debuffed turn rate)?

any1 got any ideas?

Is it +100% bonus = +50% bonus on character sheet? (like reload)

Hmm...

I don't know what the turn rate cap is on players, but NPCs don't seem to have any. Ticks me off that I can get an NPC Minerva down to 12% mast, stopped and facing the wind, but the minute I get near it to board it's doing frikken pirouettes.

The NPCs have some hidden NPC turn-rate bonus. Demasted and with Vaporing or a similar skill on them they can still turn fast enough to keep my McRaa in their arcs. Silly really.

I assume that the cap on turn-rate is 100% also. I doubt anybody is even coming close to that however.

I got debuffed on my mc cap (base 10?) from 12 to 3.24 turn rate fast.

So there is no cap on debuffs to my knowledge
