70 resil cap

The damage reduction from a critical strike is capped at 33%, which equates to 591 resilience rating(which translates into 15%) at level 70. However, there is currently no cap on critical strike chance reduction.



unless you go nuts and ignore all other stats, there is no way you can have 591 res at 70 so don't even worry about the cap.
 
Anyone know the actual # resil caps at 70, I think it's more around the lines of 700 resil, If anyone can figure this out it would be awesome

by the formula it should be 591 but as we can see even 660 doesn't cap you.



so i guess 591 is the soft cap, after the soft-cap, the formula is probably unknown at this point.



and imo if you do decide to stack res, you should only aim for the soft cap, and focus on other stats after reaching it.
 
ok i figured it out.



its 679~680 res.



definitely obtainable if you use some 20 res gems and wear S4 + guardian gears.
 
How much does Res actually end up helping healers? If you get res capped are you effective (as in priests playing offensively, burning, healing)? Can you be effective without res?

not in arena.



i myself am aiming for 420ish.



which is the 0.618 of cap:)



golden ratio ftw.
 
geming that much Resil is effective for healers only if you have the gear/profs to hit a decent amount of Sp. If you can level up your profs past 375 and can get all the wolk enchants and gear it's not a bad idea, if not stack sp.

591 res is cake at 70 to surpass if you want to ignore other stats, especially after WotLK. my rogue is at 421 in S-2 gear and PVP +45 res trinket not trying.



a player in S4 would easily bust 600+ should they want to ignore stats, maybe even head to 700+



- epic 70 PVP trinket +45 res

- blizz added lvl-70 head and shoulder res/stam enchants, between the 2 they add 35 res

- talisman of the horde/alliance adds 35

- 20 res ench to chest +60 one from wotlk

- Wotlk +20 res gems or other types for various clor slots. three +34 res

gems if they were a JC

-- you could could add 60 res to that dagger you have from kara that has

3 socket slots and other slots of other gear.

- shield users could add another 12 res from BC ench

- then if not in arena but BGing add 50 res from "flask of lesser toughness"



Hotfix (2010-01-20): Resilience damage reduction doubled. So depending on their current amount of resilience, characters might experience a 10 to 20% decrease in damage taken from other players.
