Resilience is back on PTR...sneaky dev's

saw tweet

you snuck resilience into the latest build under the name "player damage reduction level 100"?

It's a bit inside baseball but we may need baseline resil at lower levels and we need that buff to remove it at higher levels. (holinka)
still no plans for resilience at level 100. Damage pacing feels right for the most part. (holinka)

So item squish plus resi? Can't wait to be excited to crit 1k max on a 25k plus character.

it would need to be buffed tenfold to have any value with its current formula.

Blood Boil Base Damage = 687 (0% Reduction)
Blood Boil Vs PvE = 687 (0% Reduction)
Blood Boil Vs PvP = 646 (5.96797671033479% Reduction)


Approx 59.15 Resilience Rating per 1% Damage Reduction.
Compared to 41.89 Versatility Rating per 1% Damage Reduction.
43 health per 1 stamina.


28552 health in PvP Gear, 30364hp effective health with full resilience gems.
Which is the equivalent of around 42 stamina.


So although using Wrathful WOULD decrease your damage taken, you'd lose an absolute shit ton of damage and the reduction you do gain would be so minimal it wouldn't be worth it.
