Elemental Resistance/Element Nerfing

            Elemental Resistance is a form of defense a player can use to counter or nerf different elements available in the game. This is the popular defensive build use in different dungeons, PVP and WOE. Knowledge about elemental resistance is necessary especially for tanking and survival in PVP well even in PVE. Anyway, Elemental Resistance is different in Armor Property Resistance. Armor Property resistance is another source,  it is the natural resistance of an element to another and it doesn't stack with with cards and equipments elemental resistance. Meaning if you are wearing holy property armor, you will have 25% resistance against a certain element but it doesn't mean that you will only need 75% more elemental resistance against an element to fully nullify it. Attack will be first reduce by your armor property then it will be further reduced by your elemental resistance. Player can have a level 1 elemental armor property.

The rows represent the attributes of the spell or skill, and columns are the monsters attribute. The side that is using an elemental attack doesn't have separate levels, but the side receiving damage is separated into 4 different levels. The number indicates the amount of damage done to the monster (units are in percentage). The greenindicates additional damage is applied (above 100%), and the red indicates damage is below 100% (in case of negative value, monster will gain HP from the attack). 
Again this resistance through armor property doesn't stack w/ elemental resistance.


         There's a lot of equipment, potions and booster that can aid you in reaching at least 4 elemental resist. In fact you can reach up to 8 full elemental resist (100% on each element) by simply combining items and equipment bonus, but that's not all, you can actually reach 9 full elemental resist with only asprika equip lol. There are also some skills that can help you receive some elemental resist, in fact a mechanic have two passive skill that grants them a natural 70% fire and 50% earth resist.

         The most popular items used in making elemental resist builds are aesprika(v4p - 30% elemental resistance on all elements including neutral), elemental resist potions (20% in one of the four basic element - fire water wind and earth), undead scrolls (20% resistance on fire water wind and earth) and the glorious rings (accessory - 10% on each of the four basic elements).
