Negative magic resists work and is not capped at 0. A char with -magic resists takes more damage than one at 0
+15%md black cleft does a fair more dmg than -10% emr black cleft at 0%emr and negative %emr.
When a 30%horazon is equipped. A 15% MD black cleft does just a little bit more dmg than -10%emr black cleft.
Tests were done on a player. Sample size greater than 30.
Scenario A: Necro with just 20 in bone spear, no other bonuses.
Scenario B. Necro with full synergies.
Results are consistent in both scenario a and b.
I'm not sure I understand what you tested,
For players, magic resistance is just the same as the other resistances, its at 0 base resist in norm/nm/hell, capped at -100 minimum and +75 maximum.
How can you test holy bolt damage on a player when it only does damage to undead and demons?
Well he was testing how much magic guardian jewel increases lightning damage, obviously
