Do items have stacking caps?
I have got twenty soldier's syringes, it didn't seem much faster than ten. So Do items have stack caps then? Or at least deminishing returns? If you have any info on this please bother to leave some literture. :)

If you are talking about predatory instincts or the hammer, the stack is for the action (3 attack speed for predatory, 5 -1 shield for hammer) you see the stack of predatory insticts over your head with 3 colors (yellow, orange and red), but that doesn't mean that you can stack only 3 predatory instinct, you can stack more, and every one will give you more crit ratio and probably more attack speed too.
I don't know about the hammer, but probably it decreases the defense even more when stacking

Thank you!
I think they stack even more. Try it with engeneer, the tourret cooldown is the best to check that.

On a side note, the origin piece (the one who reduces cooldown for use items) stacks a ton, i got like 150 for 1 sec cooldown on any random use item.

Well it's nice to know that Enigma stacks aren't as effective as Mitosis stacks.

Small enigma is the name of the item, and i won't be so sure, it is a common item, and Mitosis is a very rare one.
As for the alien head, i can say it stacks only 3 heads, no benefit for more (tested on engeneer: 2 heads = 20 sec cooldown for turrets, 3 heads = 15 sec, 4 & 5 = 15 sec)

Yeah I also got 4 and I noticed no difference in any of the Engineer's cooldowns. 3 is the cap on alien heads I think.

Pauls goat hoofs do stack beyond the normal amount, as do soldiers syrenges, and they do have diminishing returns, but the rewards are worth it. Moving so fast that enemies are moving at a snails pace due to lag and you're almost faster than at regular game speed is a pretty cool thing.
Also: Item cooldown + Timepiece = Complete Time Stop

Syringe caps after 8 and the goat hoof caps after around 25 depending on your character and other items.

What's the cap with barbe wire? I've seen someone with 300 and still have it getting bigger

As Acrid I got 50 I didn't notice any change after 30 though.

56 Leaf Clovers cap at 25... %4 drop chance x 25 = %100. and trust me, i've done the tests... i used to collect 20 for AGM runs, before i realized that 15 was WAY more than enough. with the Command relic enabled, after a certain point, there are just item boxes EVERYWHERE. after which i figured i'd beaten the game enough times and decided my new goal was to pick up 5 more 56LCs and see if i could crash the game with box sprites :D (couldn't btw... robust programming, Hopoo/Chucklefish!)

XD Yeah I've gotten 25 before it's pretty damn fun. lol

Goat hoof doesn't cap at 15, it caps at 25, just tested that with a friend.
