Title: elemental resistance I & II questions
Post by: ThrainSil on January 30, 2006, 11:42:55 PM
Ive tried searching the forums and while I found great tables on weapon enchantments I
cannot seem to find anything similar for the resistance enchantments.  

What Im asking is;

1. how much does a lvl I and/or lvl II (are there more?) res enchantment resist?
2. How much of a level requirement do these add to an item?

If I understand it, these can be put on any item that can be equipped, but do not stack with other resistances.  For instance my character from a cold place took the resist cold energy feat because it seems he should have that.  Am I correct that adding more cold resistance will not stack with this?

Thanks.

An elemental Resistante lvl 1 will absorb 5/-, 5 points of damage against a specific Elemental Damage, and a lvl 2 will absorb 10/-.

 As to the level requirement, check out the table at the CNR section.

ThrainSil,

Any single item can not have mulitple resistances, ie... 1 type of resistance (bludgenoning, cold, acid, ect...).  You can have mulitple items with different types of resistances but lets say you have a cloak of cold resitance 5/- and a belt of artic resitance of cold 10/- .... You would NOT get a 15/- to your cold resistance you would get the greater of the the two resitances, in this case 10/-.  Now as far as taking a feat and getting a bonus, I am not sure how that works but it would make since to me that any "natural" resistances would be cumulative to item resistances.  (speculation here) But 5/- natural cold resistance would stack with a 5/- belt of frost giants for a total of 10/-.  Need a GM to confirm or deny this but I hope this rambling helped.
