Resists??

According to the rulebook it says that a sage can grant people a resist, but it never really defines anywhere that I can find what resists actually exist in the game.

Could a GM post a list of what resists can be given out by the sage skill.

Thanks,
Evan

I was wondering the same thing.

Correct me if I am wrong but the resists in game that can be granted are:

Resist Poison
Resist Sleep
Resist Magic
Resist Fear

you are correct, Wayne. Basically, for anyone looking, the resists that are grantable are any of the resists that are given via a racial boon, or a discpline.

So there is no Resist Damage or Resist Disease?

Anyone have any thoughts on allowing the sage to grant a resist Press?

Resist Press I have no issue with. I do have issues with resist damage. Resist disease should be one considering there is an immunity to it though why we need disease and poison as two seperate categories is beyond me.

Resist Malady?

Does anyone get resist press? If there is currently no resist press, then there probably shouldn't be one.

Can Time not give Resist Damage then? (ie: is there no resist damage?) I was not aware of this and had given myself a resist damage last event. (course, woulda done the same as resist magic in the end).

Question: Can anyone survive a 9 vorpal attack? (outside of parry)

I can (Without the parry)

I just wasn't sure life went that high.

With the right buff I can survive two. And as of two events ago there was no resist damage (or else the firestorm vorpal attack would be pretty silly as there is no way to resist it other than that)

Everyone can get that high... eventually. I can currently survive it (barely).

Post by Ug » Thu Jul 29, 2004 1:13 pm

So there is no way, shape, or form to resist the 5 vorpal attack from firestorm?

eewwww

Yes, there is. Nosh protected his entire army from it.

We just have to learn how.

I would include in the list:

Resist Disease
Resist Damage

I would not include Press, as that is not a Resist, but really a Counter (i.e. you having the strength to push back). I don't think it's the end of the world if you do include it, but I'd not do it myself.

Resists??
