To against magical dmg, how much resist is enough?

Post#1 » Sun Aug 11, 2019 11:16 am

As many class have resist debuff, 600+resist seems not enough to against magical dmg.

I tested, when my resist is 800+, i got dmg from word of pain almost 12xx; when my resist is only 600, then i got 24xx from wop.

If i stack resist talis, i should give up the armor talis.

So do u guys have some advice for how much resist should hv for againsting magical dmg?

Never stack resist talis. Resist buffs and heals are enough.
Dying is no option.

Depends how the group meta looks like in the enviroment you play the most. If it's really heavy with BW meta in ORVR it can be worth getting additional Corp ressist. And Spirit of against Sorcs. If there's no distinct group meta there's no point in slotting it. But tbh, I havn't played a single minute in ORVR were I wish i had more ressists. There's been a couple times I regret not having more wounds or more striketrough tho.

General rule of thumb is if you are going to regularly take magic damage you should have ~40% resist to it BEFORE resistance buffs so as to nullify resistance debuffs and not waste statistics. For lower geared players this is usually accomplished by The Winds Impervious tome jewelry. Also this only matters if you need to gear out concerns of damage taken; so dps careers in proper groups generally need not concern themselves.
