Damage Resistance

[nzone]

Does the 'Damage Resistance' resist all the damages from the like: Elemental, Poison, Pierce, Energy Leech, Life Leech, Vitality Decay, Vitality Damage, Physical Damage, and Bleeding Damage?

I was thinking rather than concentrating on individual resistances, I would concentrating on 'Damage Resistance' if the aforementioned is true.

Any thoughts?

This has been answered about a boogawoogamoogillion times but still...

Damage Resistance only applies to incoming PHYSICAL damage.

Damage ABSORPTION applies to all kinds of damage and no, there isn't any gear that has it, skills only.

yeah the 'search' doesn't pop up anything relates to it so the new thread.

ehhehehe so now it's boogawoogamoogillion + 1

Okay better do the individual resistance then...

The name could have been less confusion:

Damage Resistance = Physical Damage Resistance.
Damage Absorption = Total Damage Resistance.

well the good folks at iron lore decided to make all ability's and other not make any sense at all, they hoped for places like this here forum to pop up and explain everything decently

Physical dmg is reduced by "physical resistance" or "damage resistance"

Note that "Damage absorption" is not type dependent. 100% damage absorption would be invincibility.

With all respects, just type in 'Damage resistance' and see how many entries returned? The returns are not something obvious....

You could try skimming through the stickied threads once just to see how many of your questions have been answered already...

So because it comes back with a lot of hits you don't look at any of them

Oh I'm sorry bro! i didn't know this was a google site. Please lead me to what page did 'game mechanics' and 'dmg type and resistances' those Viper_Sweden's answer by doing 'damage resistance' as a search string. You know quite well because you posted the 'dmg type and resistances'. I tipped my hat's to Viper_Sweden's for taking his time and provided me even the link. Don't just state the obvious.



Often time a new post comes along and people get so worked up because the question had been answered before; for what? This is still a forum where people post and answer questions [whether it had been answer or not]. Maybe it's not good example but "if you drive and got lost...do you stop to ask for direction or do you keep driving?"

The thing is, new people will always keep on making threads despite search function being there. Not everyone is familiar with forums. There is nothing we can really do about it. I admit that I also created some threads before with questions that were already covered somewhere else.
