Apr 17, 2023 at 23:48 comment added Adeptus Why should resistance to "all" be different to resistance to (all types specified individually)?
Apr 17, 2023 at 16:00 comment added Ruse @Adeptus why bother writing about resistance to all separately? If each 'instance of damage' is a damage type, then resist all needs no dedicated explanation because its results are the same as a collection of individual resistances. But it's explained as if the results are not supposed to be the same.
Apr 17, 2023 at 5:47 comment added Adeptus If an attack would deal 7 slashing damage and 4 fire damage, resistance 5 to all damage would reduce the slashing damage to 2 and negate the fire damage entirely. - this suggests to me that each type is an instance. If you had resistance 5 to slashing & resistance 5 to fire, shouldn't the result be the same as resistance 5 to all?
