About Magic resist please awnser

I know there have been other posts about this but it hasn't been accurately answered

Before i get the full chain miragent set for my glad and stack MR i would like to know.. does MR really work on this server

for instance on retail i had chain miragents and stacked MR i had ~1700 and i resisted about 60% of spells and 80% of CC's

would this be the same here? please answer

ING: Gladtobeaglad

 

i realy hope they fixed it^^
wanna see sorcers with magical acuraccy on their set

 

i thought most types of damage from all classes are magic based................

if a dev can elaborate on this it would be awesome

magic resistance is there to lessen the effects of a magic damage? Is that only damage from mages or generally damage from all other classes? Does it make stun or silence or sleep or root last less or those have a set lasting time no matter what magic resistance you have?

parry for example, as read the desciption is there to lessen the damage you receive..... damage from melee? damage from arrows?

it is all so mingled up at the moment

 

Magic resist would allow you to evade everything including damage from a magical based attack. There is no in between when evading magic it either hits or resits theres no shaved damage

All stuns from every class is magic based and SHOULD be able to be resisted from MR (for some reason though some skills dont seem to be able to evaded with MR on this server)

No it doesnt make it last less of its duration

 

I noticed more resists while running for my life in SR, hope this helps.
