going from 0% to 10% resist is the same change (10% increased chance to resist) as going from 90% to 91% resist (also a 10% increased chance to resist).

p.s. a linear relationship for anything is retarded
This is a good explanation but I doubt a loudmouthed simpleton like wehrmacht is ever going to understand.
