Res doesn't go below -100.


So res won't go below -100 even with sunder charm? Ok. Thanks.

Yes

-100 is the lowest even if you have 100 sunder charms

75 Onscreen is the max Res unless you have +max resist items

These sunder charms gone make things worse.

A fire sorc will not beat 95fire resist monsters.
Only cold mastery, lower resist and conviction will be useful thx to sunder charms.

How can they lack brainpower like this in thinking this out.


resist not protects es

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

tyvm. that helps a lot. so with a lightning sunder charm, i'll prob take a lot of light dmg with the resistance penalty.

Sorry i edited my math, the 36-37 is how much damage 75% res takes off , not deals lol. So yes less resist means more damage to the hp only u would take

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
