Mezz immune Albs :)

[ilum]

Take a look at this - an Albion group is able to get so high body resist to let it become almost mezz immune

26% body resist - from equipment
16% body resist - from cleric resist buff (with the normal cleric spec)
10% body resist - from the Paladin soul ward
10% mezz reduction - from the sorcerer's usual 44 mind spec (15% also possible)
6% body resist - from Avoidance of Magic 2 (which is a great RA)

A whopping total of 58% total body resist plus the 10% mezz reduction for the entire group. Will make mezzes last less than 1/3 of their delve value, right?

Add determination 2 and you're up at 98% ^^

paladin chant stacks with cleric resist?

 

[ilum]

The tri-resist 10% chants do...

SoulWard: 10%Body, 10%Energy, 10%Spirit
ElementalWard: 10% Earth, 10%Matter, 10%Ice

I don't think det and resists stack like that ilum. I've had 53% body, plus 15% mez chant plus det 3 which would give me 53+45+15 = 113% resistance, but I still got mezzed (though not for long).

I think it's stacks mopre like: Time * det * resists * mez chant. So a 65 sec mez with the above would be:
65 * 0.55 * 0.47 * 0.85 = 14 seconds.
That's then further reduced by being on the edge of the mez.

Just a stupid question but I never knew AoM does anything to other than damage resistances. So is it really all spell resists or just like increases resistance to all damage types of magic by 3% per level of this ability?

 

[Aoln]

AoM only increases spell resist, not melee

There is already good drops in cc.

my new anti SM tactic: buffbot resists!!

my spirit resist

+26% (items)
+5% (briton)
+25% (mota2 buffbot spirit resist)
+6% (aom2)
+10% (soul ward)

a whoppin 72% spirit resist (and 67% for non-briton/inconnu's), aint that something

ofcourse you can also use the buffbots body resist, you'll have 67% body then

they will have great difficulty hitting you for more then 300 when right on top of you, and since all tanks have more then 2000 hps and crappy rogues like me more then 1800 you should be fine...

but... havent tested it out yet... didnt fight a true pbae group yet...

Thats how it works.
When they added the Mezz reduction to sorcs the % were added to the resist %. So 26% items, 9% AoM3, 16%buffs and the 55%(old version) Sorc Selfmezz reduction would make sorc Mezz immune, thats the reason it got changed, it was "to" easy according to mythic, so they made it Impossible to become Mezz immune for everyone except Hibs ( BaoD ).

Det5 is the closest to immune you'll get, but you'll never be truly immune cuz it's no longer possible to get 100%+

Heh. Shouldnt write when tired.

I ment isnt AoM afecting only the damage part of spells? Or atleast thats what I read in there. Else shouldnt it read 3% spell resists not "increases resistance to all damage types of magic by 3% per level of this ability"?

Im still wondering what the all damage types of magic there is. So is it like mezz wont damage you so no resist? Or resist all magic?

Avoidance of Magic - Raise all your Magic resists 3% per level

Mezz/stun/root is afected by diffrence magic resists so AoM affects Stun/mezz/root duration aswell as magic damage

 

[bouh]

as Danya said

it's stacks mopre like: Time * det * resists * mez chan

and hi Ilum

Why oh why did they give Animists Body damage nukes. This is why i hit for around 4 (-446) damage.
