24589, Help site resists & vulns out of date
Posted by HelpSitePeruser on Wed 31-Dec-69 07:00 PM
I noticed on the orc page it shows only

Resistant: Disease

in the orc help file it has it correctly as

Resistant: Disease, Acid

------
on the goblin website page is shows

no resists or vulns at all

and help file shows

Vulnerable to: Magic
Resistant to: Poison, Disease

------
lastly you may want to change for goblins/dwarf/duergar/svirf what "resist magic" or "vuln magic" means

I doubt new players would realise "resist magic" actually is a combination of "elemental" and "magic" damage listed from help attack type.

Perhaps instead of magic put

Resistant: Acic, Lightning, Fire, Cold, Energy

-----
Lastly a question why does resist magic not include the elemental damage "water" but does include the magic damage "energy"?

Just curious

I updated the Orc and Goblin pages (should go live in the next day or so).

On the Resist/vuln magic thing, we decided to instead add a line to the Damage Type helpfile that explains what is within the Resist/Vuln instead of on the race pages themselves.

Water is not included due to conflicts with other affects, those of which I assume you can figure out.
