1623, Vuln -> Resistant scale?
Posted by josiah on Wed 31-Dec-69 07:00 PM
I'm wondering if there are only 4 thresholds of resistance:
immune
resistant
neutral
vulnerable

Or, is it like a number? The reason I ask, is I ultimately want to know what happens when someone who is vuln fire, gets an item or prep which gives resist_fire. What happens when someone with resist_fire gets a resist_fire prep? What about resist_fire and resist_magic against a fireball spell? Do these things stack/accumulate?

Thanks!
1626, simple, prep overrides innate

You are a fire giant, therefore vuln cold, resist fire.

You wear, or use, a resist cold prep.

Now you are resist cold and resist fire. Simple. Vuln might as well have not existed.
1629, What a let down.

This system has the potential to be really cool.. With stackable resistances.. and instead it's just a simple simon system that doesn't make sense =(

A fire giant with resist cold

has same resistance as a

human with resist cold
