10 armor vs 1 all resistances

[Whyzo]

they cant dodge u if you attack from behind.

loloolololololololol

 

[Phrawsty]

Armor will give you next to no reduction, and resist is like 2% on spells (explosive shot, arcane shot, arcane barrage, etc) pretty obv choice of resist +1

ya



cool, teach me how to gouge from behind. that shit sounds pro.

they inevitably realize someone is pounding on them and turn around.



i think they have it keybound or something.

Unless I am a race with a resistance racial, I use 10 armor. The Spen trink totally mitigates the 1 resist.

TBH i think that's silly every bit of resist is good. I got a full frostbolt resisted by a dwarf today

 

[Earlwing]

Dwarfs have frost resist, not surprising. 10 spell pen totally nerfs one resist, but not a full racial resist.

 

[danceparty]

also, rogues and hunters are everywhere. they have no spell pen.

uh, 1 spell pen negates 1 spell resist...regardless of the source.

The 10 armor mitigates .15% of physical damage. That includes auto shot from hunters, and rogue and warrior damage.



vs 2% resist on Explosive and Arcane Shot, 2% resist on crippling poison, and 2% resist on almost all Pally attacks. None of these classes get spell pen.



You really care what a warrior does to you?

Holy resistance doesn't exist, but yeah +1 resist is best.

I wish holy protection potions used something besides Swiffthistle.

I know, thanks. It was just a random thought not really on topic.

Holy resistance doesn't exist,

i actually have doubts about that statement. yeah, that's the way it used to be...and i think if you dug hard in the official forums you could probably find blizz even stating that ages ago..



but look at armory profiles...why would the official armory list holy resistance (and give it a value) if it doesn't exist? (i don't really keep up, but would doubt calculating holy resistance is a bug)



http://us.battle.net...k/Lofi/advanced

And another curious question. where does the other +1 come from if the cape enchant gives +1? So could the +2 be a bug? sure....but the fact that the armory calculates holy resistance at all? not sure how that would happen just from a bug that no one bothered to address.



wowwiki is terribly dated so take anything on there with a grain of salt..



i don't even know if anyone with the enchant has dug into their logs to see if any holy damage has ever been resisted...i'm just saying the statement "holy resistance doesn't exist" is rather curious.

lol. i know right? i just wish swiftthistle could be purchased from vendors like every other herb at our level. the only herbs i bother gathering are mageroyal and briarthorn and that's only because of the swiftthistle. ...swiftthistle is the only reason i have herbalism.

holy resistance doesnt exist, you are seeing a bug no holy spell has ever been resisted in the history of wow

i'm not concerned with the history of wow...i'm wondering if, since 4.2, anyone has worn the +1 enchant and gone through their logs to see if any holy damage was resisted.
