The minion penetration gained at 7 points is what I want to understand.
Does the 1% pen per 5% uncapped elemental resistance.
If I have 95% fire, 95% cold and 95% lightning res do I get 12% Minion pen for being 20 over in each or 4% for being 20 over on average?
The node says pen is based on over capped elemental OR necrotic res, does this mean it’s one or the other or both?
Does this penetration apply to afflictions like poison, bleed and ignite?
As resistances can be forced into negatives, This is strait up damage multiplier after forcing an enemy into negative res no? I mean with a massive necrotic res I am looking at a +50% penetration for my build… Assume i can force my enemy into -50% resistance, that is just like a 50% damage multi yes?
You will get 4% for fire, 4% for cold, 4% for lightning. It’s a total of 12%, but it will be specific to that element. That is, 4% fire penetration + 4% cold penetration + 4% lightning penetration.
No, that is just some weird phrasing. If you also have 95% necrotic, you’ll also get 4% necrotic penetration.
Ignite yes, if it’s fire penetration. You won’t get poison or physical penetration, so no for the other 2.
To get 50% necrotic penetration you would need 325% necrotic resistance.
Assuming you can get that much, then yes, you will be able to get them into negative res. I’m not sure if there’s a cap to negative resistance, though. @Llama8 might know better.
Oh its PER type. I did not understand that… I thought I would get like 50% generic pen… I could not understand why everyone did not take this node… Now I get it. Thanks.
What does the new node say? 'Cause normally, x% per y% uncapped is based on the entire %, so Soul Barrier (1 ward gained per 1% uncapped poison res) with 90% poison res would give you 90 ward gained when it triggered.
There’s also mark for death for additional resist reduction. I’m surprised that node doesn’t include poison since that’s a primary element for the Acolyte.
