    Magic resist seems ok, but the Magic accuracy of skills is wrong. (Physical ones which carry debuff). Debuffs are all MA based in retail aion, but only a small amount are in gamez aion. Hopefully it will get fixed, because it is an important stat and ncsoft intended it to be that way.

    It only works against magic spells and a very few physical debuffs right now, silence arrow to name one. It should of course affect ALL physical debuffs too. (Except knockdown, knockback, spin).

    well on gamez cannot be everything like on retail why? on retail isn't running 99% people of the server with full mr 2k+ so if you will make everything MA based then ranger(example) with 1k ma have 0% chance to stun/sleep/silence/root someone? stupid isn't it? that's my opinion

    True, but I wouldn't say everyone sockets MR and if they do, I just switch to my MR set as well :3

    I posted below that post saying that knockdown, spin, knockback are not MA/MR based. Besides they arent classed as debuff, more like physical altered state or something.

    Sleep Arrow: I shoot you in the butt with a tranquilizer dart and you fall asleep.
    Entangling: I shoot at your legs with an arrow with a rope attached to it to slow you down.

    Where's the magic in that?

    certain stuns are not magic based, same as certain physical debuffs. For example, someone with MR resisting divine justice (a skill from templar that does magical dmg and stuns) vs shield counter (a skill that does physical dmg and stuns). In this case, the user resisted both the dmg and stun from divine justice, but not from shield counter. Also, physical debuffs from skills like weakening blow, blunting blow, etc never got resisted in retail. There has been debates about dazzling blow in retail forums back then though. It never got resisted in PvP, but it has been resisted by bosses. Not too sure about the outcome as I thought it was a pointless argument to compare PvP to PvE situations.
    Yes, this whole post is based on my 2 years of playing retail as a templar.
