resistance: bug, typo or conspiracy?

[ADYXZ]

help me with this, wanted to try ST 2-10 but this happened:

Is the 2nd one taken while you are doing atoll (or stuff like that) that doubles res?

[gruntar]

Im thinking the tooltip does not update after every change, sometimes it lags a bit...try relogging after adding the crystals and see if that helps...18% should be correct for the 158, for that matter, and 13 for the 116

[ADYXZ]

these screens were taken 20 seconds one after the other, and also the atoll buff says "double resistance" but that doesnt really SHOW ur resistances as doubled and imho the buff is bugged anyways (with 450 electro resist ppl have 52% reduction, if u double that you should be IMMUNE to any electro damage, and that doesnt happen either). any ideas?

@grunt: not sure it was a lag issue, ive tried taking crystals in and out and it instantly updated

its double resistance not double resistance %

so 400 res is now 800 res
and its when the opponents res reduction is at 0
we dont know what an AIs res reduction is at

good point hobo, didnt rly think that one through (abt res reduction)
didnt think bosses could have that

still if by logic 400 = 50%, 800 = 100%, thats just the way it is
and this brings us back to our first problem: why in hell did my light resist go DOWN when i ADDED crystals

O_o u re right......

[Anubi0s]

it also depends on the sylph u are using, a dark sylph has more dark resist to Dark % even with same Res cristals number than an electro sylph. like: using Hercules and with 100 res to dark, u will have less Res to dark than when using a hades with 100 Res to Dark.

Also, there is a max % of res u can have. even if u have 1000 Res on Dark Element, ur Resistan probably wont go higher than 80%

[ADYXZ]

anubis what you said is somewhat stupid, its just as saying having having 1 gallon/litre of water in a bottle, or having the same quantity in a water tank means there more or less water.....

its true damage wise, and yea, im assuming there may be a cap to resist, but this still doesnt explain ANYTHING related to my question
