Monster Resistances
|
When a monster has the "Resists x damage" mod, exactly how much resistance can we assume the mob has?
I'm sure mobs have increased resistances with level and difficulty, however, for the sake of damage calculation, is there a general amount we can assume for maps? After reading over the wiki, the effectiveness of curses on some mobs is questionable. Since mobs are able to reach over 75% resistance and curse reduction is applied BEFORE the soft-cap is set, the difference between casting the curse and not casting it is effectively nil. If you're reading this, I'm probably on another year-long ban.
Thanks GGG. |

In Normal, you can get a monster from Resistant to Vulnerable with a low-level Resist Curse. It's likely that it starts listing resistances at either 10% or 15%, positive or negative.
I don't expect any monster to have more than 75% Resists naturally, if they even reach that. Rares with Res modifiers and/or Purity will have plenty Resists though. Penetration supports are applied after the Resistance cap, so they help chew through those Rares a whole lot. |

A normal mob with resists X damage usually has 50% resists to that damage (this applies to merciless diffuclty, not sure about the others) from what ive heard.
they can reach 75%+ if they have resists X and also purity aura like vipermagi pointed out I carve and sell real animal skulls, check out my work here: https://www.instagram.com/victorseiche/
