Game Mechanics: Max Resist Cap should be 255

[Nirgon]

This is about the 255 resist cap where an experienced raider specifically reports the issue and instances of it happening to his guild.

Show me proof of someone in Kunark saying "get 400 resist" for anything, especially as a way to be immune to VS tap.

This shouldn't be a terribly complicated change to implement and would make things much, much more classic.

This Shadoo thread would be going to exact same way without that DB shot. /shrug.

you cant get 400+ resists without a bard in your party...

why are you so mad at bards?

Silo, must you even troll the bug threads?

Anyway like most stuff this isn't cut and dried. Unless we had an actual log resist rates we'll never know for sure. I just feel that based on the evidence its far more likely that 255 was the cap, and the -150 was added because really what else could they do? Trakanon has the same amount of HP as Nagafen and Vox and they wanted to make him a challenge.

no im not trolling im sick of you guys that dont even play here do nothing but look for ways to "make this server classic" in your free time

you cant go by one post of some random guy that said something and assume by that one post to destroy the integrity of the server because you are over everquest

you guys use to post great info with reliable sources but lately i constantly see you guys posting "i am certain this is the way it was".. not good enough get lost post better info

i can post over 20+ replies by players in the 2000 circa that thought -cha helped necro's fear better and we know that its not the case....

one post isnt good enough to revamp an entire resist system, diminishing returns make sense but bards and primal always put players way way over the cap and it was just hearsay like your speculation

we need more info other than 2 guys posting about there thoughts and "this guy says" thats all i see

"sondoso says that getting over 255+ mr would make root land everytime i swear" your just as bad as the -cha guys lately

you are getting lazy im here to stop you from your bullshit

Of course I still play you tool, that's why I have like 10 characters in my sig.

And as I have stated about a million times, a 255 cap on resists is the logical thing. It should take evidence for resists to go over 255, not vice versa. If you wanna find a bunch of posts recommending 300PR for Trak be my guest.
