Immunity means that if you get hit for damage of that type you take (for 20% mmunity)20% less damage. For resistance, you take the number less damage.unimar wrote:
7) Damage Resistance... What is the difference on immunties and resistances on items? And why do they sometime be displayed twice like 20% immunity vs blunt and just below it reads 5% immunity vs blunt.
i.e. Mr. Angry, wearing armour with immunity 20% to bludgeoning and resistance 20 to bludgeoning gets hit for 50 damage bludgeoning.
His immunity absorbs 20% of that (10), then his reduction takes 20 more, and he only takes 20 damage.
If he got hit for, say, 500 bludgeoning damage his immunity would absorb 100 damage, and his resistance would absorb 20, for only 380 total damage.
