i posted a more articulate response in the other thread this retarded graph was posted in. this is called a hyperbolic function. you can generate a hyperbole with the formula y = tanh(x) and you can make it conform to any pattern by adding coefficients in the right spots.
for instance you could make a fairly nice EQ pvp resist formula like this:
y=tanh(x/100+(10*n)
where y is the resist rate, x is your MR, and N is the difference in levels.
assuming there's no difference in level, your resist rate would be about 29% at 30mr, 76% at 100mr, and 96% at 200mr. EQ always rounds down so there would never be a 100% resist rate, but it would start rounding to 99% at about 270mr.
with a 5 level deficit, your resist rate would drop to 19% at 30mr, 58% at 100mr, and 87% at 200mr.
with a 5 level advantage, your resist rate would be 53% at 30mr, 96% at 100mr and you would be over the 99% cap at 200mr.
this is just a sample, you could tweak the formula however you wanted. but i'm sure nilbog, rogean etc already know plenty about maths and have a good idea for a formula in mind.

since people lurv their graphs, i went and generated mine in excel. this graph is reproducible by the formula y=tanh(x/100+(10*n).
y axis is resist by percentage, x is MR. the blue line is resist values with a 5 level advantage, red is with no advantage and green is with a 5 level deficit. you could easily change the values by modifying the coefficients but it would be really stupid to use any other function than tanh to do this.
