Not reading entire thread but a short answer is
The 5% hp you take in damage from a 95% energy shield oys affected by res since res check comes after e.s. so resist will reduce that 5% dmg
1k dmg fire attack from a pvm monster
50 to hp 950 to mana(actually less if max telekinesis, more mana if under lvl 16)
That 50 turns to 100 dmg if ur res is -100 or about 12-13 if 75 resist
good example but most monsters wont deal 1k damage,
more likely it will be 5 monsters dealing 200 damage
which is the same net ammount, but makes a difference if you have MDR or PDR... Which is why gereks or gbane is so godly with ES
200 damage * 0.05 = 10
even 400 damage * 0.05 =20
With a 20/20 gbane the damage to life = 0
5 instances of 400 damage at -100 resist = 1330 damage to mana with level 20 telekensis and 95% es, and (5*((400*.05)-20)) = 0 damage to life
