Elemental Resistances measure the Character's ability to resist incoming elemental damage. The greater the Elemental Resistance, the less damage is taken from attacks of that Element.
Any Character or Boss Monsters with 100% or greater elemental damage resistance no longer take damage from that element. If resistance exceeds 100%, any damage from that element instead heals the target by (resistance-100)% of the damage taken.
Elemental Resistances can be further split into the following individual resistances:
- Metal Damage Reduction
- Water Damage Reduction
- Wood Damage Reduction
- Fire Damage Reduction
- Earth Damage Reduction
Tribulations[]
Despite the specified element displayed in the window when starting a Tribulation, the actual damage done by Tribulations are of the Chaos Element[1], which are unaffected by the Cultivator's Elemental Resistances[2]. As a result, Elemental Resistances are not considered when defending against a Tribulation. The Element of the Tribulation only affects its power depending on the location.
