- | * Elemental resistances reduce the damage taken by the specified amount **before** reductions from [[Protection]] is calculated. This means that elemental resistances are not affected by [[Armor Piercing]] or [[Armor Negating]] properties. | + | * Elemental |
+ | * Correspondingly elemental **vulnerabilities** increase the damage taken **before** reductions from [[Protection]] is calculated. Similarly [[fatigue]] damage is more effective against vulnerable foes. | ||
* Elemental resistances provide **double protection** against [[fatigue]] damage from attacks of the corresponding type. For example, Fire Resistance 5 grants 10 Protection against the fatigue damage from [[heat aura|heat auras]]. | * Elemental resistances provide **double protection** against [[fatigue]] damage from attacks of the corresponding type.
