Magic Resist

Hey, little problem called magic resist. Dunno how you managed to mess it up after the last few updates but it's not working properly. For example, I have 29xx mres with buffs, while a 12xx macc ranger can silence me, root, slow, sleep me.

 

29xx mres... what class?

Only thing I can think of would be an assasin.

 

thats too much MR u have there...

 

I actually don't think that even an assasin can obtain 2.9k M.R. ;

 

I'm a templar. I have around 21xx with m/s and food. + aether armor which is another 800.

 

Ohhhhhhhh I wasn't even thinking that buff. I thought you meant innate M.R. my bad D:

 

Currently, Root, Sleep, silence are not being resisted. it's not that Magic Resist doesn't work but those are conditions, not magic attacks. I don't think MR was meant to resist them in the first place. I haven't played 2.5 on retail yet so I can't say if it's the same.

To me it's a problem because as a MR Templar, those conditions are a killer so I know what you mean.

 

if i encounter u, i would run away with that MR of urs.

 

Pretty frustrated right now since I'm a mres templar too. Can't even get away from zergs anymore since there's at least a few rangers in there. Also, sm slows and whatnot are affecting me too, even through aether armor.

 

as what ive read about those skills,

example: silence arrow is a physical atk w/ a magical effect (silence)



but i really dont know if those are true

 

OOH templar, he uses buffs

 

Yeah, it should ONLY do the damage, not the debuff along with it. Like before, gladi lockdown is a physical skill but also has a debuff along with it, I resisted those but still received the damage, which is how it should be.

 

Speaking from experiance....

Sleep, fear, root, etc... should be 100000% resistable.
I'm sure stuns and silence effect of silence arrow as well as all traps and sleep arrow ARE resistable too.

 

Now I'm avoiding sorcs in pvp too, honestly pvp on my temps crap right now. I used AA putting me up to 29xx mres while fighting a sorc, probaly in anuhart, and I stun him/her, remove shocks and trees me. Another incident was when I was fighting xjuliet or w/e in Gelk and she did the same thing.

 

As I already said in one of the previous threads, fixed. Wait for another server update (this weekend).

Thread closed.
