I tank in pve mainly, doing raids etc. I popped on 1 nirn piece (boots) and my spell resist jumped by 6k. I believe i went from 24k to 30k unbuffed. Im thinking about putting nirn on both my swords (for both sword and shield setups). Also im thinking of adding more on my gear.

How does the nirn stack exactly? If i went from 24k to 30k with 1 piece, what will the swords do and then what will another armor piece do?

Also, is there a soft and hard cap. I thought those were out but someone brought it up today in a chat.?

Finally, does nirn even do much in pve content? or is it mainly used in pvp?

    2 nirn is what I have used in pvp, is enough to deal with some sorc burst and dk whip. Values will decrease after ic update so nirn will work like reinforced I believe.

    What I used on a stam char without shields or 1hs, with shields I don't need nirn.
