Resistance

Hi all

Lets say i have only a resistance of 8K and i could go to 15K

But all other pvp players have at least 15K penetration (i know it isnt , but lets look at it from a theoretical point of view)

Lets say everyone has the 15K penetration

Am i then right to assume that me increasing my resistance from 8 to 15K is useless , because they negate my 15K for 100% anyway?

Would it then be a waste of ressources?

    Odd question. Yes in your theoretical scenario it’d be pointless to get the additional resistances.

    Except most (maybe all?) major resolve buffs have a secondary effect, eg volatile armour has the thorn damage return, ice fortress has minor protection etc. So could still be worth using even if not for the resistances.
