ToME: the Tales of Maj'Eyal

A lot of characters in the vault have 7% more resist all than I can account for. For example, many characters have 22% resist all. 15% comes from thick skin, and I can't seem to find where the rest comes from.

What's going on?

Also, please confirm whether I have the right idea about resistance stacking. Resist all stacks additively, and individual resistances stack additively, but resist all stacks multiplicatively with specific resistances, right? For example, if I have two pieces of equipment that each grant 10% resist all, and two other pieces of equipment that each grant 10% resist fire, then I will have:

20% resist all
36% resist fire

Scroll way, waaay down in its inventory. Pearl of Life and Death. More info than that would probably entail a shift to the spoilers subforum, heh.

Aha, thanks for posting my latest winner!

In the case of characters that have won the game, the Pearl of Life and Death provides 7% resist all while being carried (it's in the inventory).

Thalore racials could give 10% more and alchemist gems could outfit three items with +5%more. Certain rare armors have resist all as well.

It is not as impressive as it looks though. Resistance penetration is made specifically for such situations.

You can hit the 70% cap if you try hard enough.

What is more fun is stacking haste.
