I am in a guild which has invested quite a bit of gold into nirncrux and nirnhoned items . Is this material now worthless due to the nerfing it just received ? It seems to be no more useful than a diamond/ruby etc.

    Hilarious that they nerfed nirn in the same update where they increased it's drop chance. :p

    It should not be completely worthless, especially for those still doing trait research. You still have to get the trait with or without your own nirncrux from some one who know the traits. Before nirn was bugged in 1.6, nirn and it's trait items were still among the highest priced items, just not quite as ridiculous as the recent prices have been.

    People are still going to want more spell resistance so it will be used.

    The spell resistance is increases the value on the armor piece it's placed on instead of the total of your spell resistance, which is confusing as to how the spell resistance will be affected on a weapon in the new patch.

    Which leads me, as a console player, to the question.
    Do weapons still add spell resistance after the new patch?

    This. It wasn't nerfed, just made to work as originally intended.

    Nirn was never bugged, no matter what people or even devs said after the magica abusers complaints.

    It was bugged, we all know this. Bug as in incorrect calculation resulting in an affect far more powerful than intended and in comparison to its peers.

    It wasn't bugged. It did exactly what the tooltip said.
  • Kajimano_ESO
    Nirnhoned's Spell Resistance is/was working how it is/was described in the tooltip.
    It is/was more effective then originally intended when applied to multiple sets of equipped.
    Yes, the change is technically considered a nerf.
    The new values that add Spell Resistance based on the items armor value still make Nirnhoned useful and effective, just not as useful and effective as prior to IC patch updates.
