What's the resistance hard cap?

This is using RF both for aoe damage and to massively buff my spells. Currently it gives 69% final spell damage (times 1.3 from Inner Force!).

The setup is:
75 max fire resist normally
+5 from the passive Elemental Adaptation
+5 from Saffell's Frame unique shield
+2 from a high level Purity aura
= 87 fire resist.

Now Ruby Flasks give 10 max resist, but again, Inner Force increases that by 30% so I get 13 max fire resist instead. And of course, 13+87 = 100 fire resist, and now the fact that I'm burning for 30% more damage doesn't mean anything at all.

Happy hunting. :)

Righteous Fire build.

The Purity Aura actually gives 4% at the highest levels. If Inner Force does work on the flask.. then the max for any Elemental Resist, not just Fire, is 102%. It should be capped at 99% in my opinion.

I have 102% max resist (not permanent of course) without any aura/flask nodes, so my guess would be that you can go over 105%.

Take example the flask nodes, 3x10% of a ruby flask = 13% max resist. Or it's not working that way, no idea, flask nodes and aura nodes are too far from my reach on the tree.


Why is it important/good to have over 100% resist? - maximum resistances on the map.

There is no hardcap, you can go over 100% (I guess this was actually what you were asking)
