Quick Summary
Example: being hit by 1000 fire damage, with a fire resistance of 30%, means you would take: Key points: F i n a l D a m a g e = D ∗ ( 100 − R ) / 100 \color [rgb]{0.6392156862745098,0.5529411764705883,0.42745098039215684}FinalDamage=D*(100-R)/100
Mechanics
Calculation
- F i n a l D a m a g e = D ∗ ( 100 − R ) / 100 \color [rgb]{0.6392156862745098,0.5529411764705883,0.42745098039215684}FinalDamage=D*(100-R)/100
Example: being hit by 1000 fire damage, with a fire resistance of 30%, means you would take:
- 1000 ∗ ( 100 − 30 ) / 100 = 1000 ∗ 0.7 = 700 \color [rgb]{0.6392156862745098,0.5529411764705883,0.42745098039215684}1000*(100-30)/100=1000*0.7=700 damage.
The higher your resistance gets, the more effective an increase in resistance feels in reducing damage taken. This makes increases to maximum resistance a particularly valuable stat. Going into the other direction however it means that loosing 10% resistance at a high resistance level will mean a more dramatic increase in damage taken than losing 10% resistance at low resistance levels.
- After increasing your resistance from 0% to 10 %, a hit with a 1000 base damage will deal 1000 ∗ ( 100 − 10 ) / 100 = 1000 ∗ 0.9 = 900 \color [rgb]{0.6392156862745098,0.5529411764705883,0.42745098039215684}1000*(100-10)/100=1000*0.9=900 damage, which is equal to a 10% damage reduction being felt.
- In contrast, an increase from 60% elemental resistance ( 1000 ∗ ( 100 − 60 ) / 100 = 1000 ∗ 0.4 = 400 \color [rgb]{0.6392156862745098,0.5529411764705883,0.42745098039215684}1000*(100-60)/100=1000*0.4=400 damage) to 70% resistance ( 1000 ∗ ( 100 − 70 ) / 100 = 1000 ∗ 0.3 = 300 \color [rgb]{0.6392156862745098,0.5529411764705883,0.42745098039215684}1000*(100-70)/100=1000*0.3=300 damage), while still just subtracting another 100 damage from the initial hit, reduces the effective damage taken from 400 Damage at 60% to 300 Damage at 70%, meaning the felt reduction of damage is not 10%, but 25%.
Elemental Exposure
Exposure is a debuff applied to the player or an enemy that reduces their elemental resistance (by default -20% for 4 seconds), which can result in negative resistance values.

Curses can stack with exposure and other debuffs that lower resistance, but there is a default curse limit of one. Note that debuffs from both exposure and curses affect uncapped resistance, regardless of maximum resistance.
Example: A player with 150% uncapped fire resistance and a maximum resistance of 75% would have their effective resistance unchanged after being hit with with -40% from the flammability curse, since the remaining 110% is still enough to reach maximum resistance.
Inverted resistance
Certain effects (e.g. Rakiata's FlowRakiata's FlowSupport, LineageCategory: Rakiata's FlowCost & Reservation Multiplier: 120%Requires Level 65Support Requirements: +5 DexSupports Skills that can cause Damaging Hits, causing those Hits to treat Enemy Elemental Resistances as inverted.Hits with Supported Skills treat Enemy Monster Elemental Resistance values as invertedThe Tasalio Tribe developed their own Way, seeingthe world not as it is, but as it should be, given itsroiling and endless grace of constant motion.Place into a Skill's Support Gem socket in the Skills Panel to apply its effects to that Skill. You cannot have multiple Support Gems of the same Category socketed within one Skill.) treat resistance values as if it were inverted. This is equivalent to multiplying the target's resistance value by -1. For example, if a target had 60% fire resistance, it would be treated as having -60% fire resistance. Conversely, negative resistances will be inverted into positive resistances, which can result in damage loss.
Resistance penetration
Having Penetration in a damage type reduces the effective resistance of enemies you damage with that type, thus increasing the damage they take. It stacks with exposure and curse debuffs, but is applied last and is only effective against positive resistances; it has no effect once the effective resistance is 0 or negative. In exchange, it affects both maximum resistance and uncapped resistance.
Ignore resistance
Effects which cause damage to ignore enemy resistances will calculate damage as if the enemy had 0% of the ignored resistance, and ignores any further modifications to resistances. It does not affect the actual resistance, and does not interact with stats that care about the specific resistance value.
Elemental resistance penalties
Elemental resistance penalties apply as the player progresses further into the game. During the campaign, each subsequent act imposes a greater penalty. During the interludes and endgame, resistance penalties are applied based on the area level.
| Point of progression | Penalty |
| Act 2 | −10% |
| Act 3 | −20% |
| Act 4 | −30% |
| Area level 54-59 (Interlude) | −40% |
| Area level 60-64 (Interlude) | −50% |
| Area level 65+ (Endgame) | −60% |
