Impenetrable - How much do you need and is there a cap?

So right now i have 3 sources of crit resist...

Impenetrable trait on gear
Transmutation 5 piece
Champion points into Resistant



Right now with purple gear, I get 3783 Critical Resist, more if i upgrade obviously...
On top of that i've started putting leftover CP into Resistant which currently sit at 7.8%.
Have i gone overkill?


Here are my questions
1) Is Impenetrable and Resistant the same thing? Do they stack? Do they multiply?
2) is there a cap to critical resist?
3) How do i calculate how much i need?
4) Does increased critical damage for example from The Shadow mundus affect this?

    If I have heard correctly, 3k crit resist mitigates the base crit damage modifier. Nightblade passives and crit damage CP will exceed that.

    250 crit resist is roughly 3.5% off the 50% damage bonus.

    But for all your questions about stacking etc, just go here; http://tamrielfoundry.com/topic/pts-2-1-2-sorcerer-arithmagic/

    That is the one-stop shop for eso calculations

    This is perfect, thanks!

    So my 3783 Impen translates to ~53% meaning i'm above the base cap even without any CP spent in Resistent.
    Guess i'll put leftovers into my base resists instead then :)
