-The elemental resistances provide a flat reduction to the elemental damage suffered. The appropriate resistance ability reduces fatigue damage by double these values-- like the damage from [[:heat-aura|heat]] and [[chill]] auras. There may be exceptions to this.+The elemental resistances provide a flat reduction to the elemental damage suffered.

 The damage reduction takes place after DRN is rolled but before any multipliers are added. This is most commonly the case with Fire spells that often do Fire AP (armor piercing) damage. The damage reduction takes place after DRN is rolled but before any multipliers are added.

 When buffing resistances with spells it is important to be aware of the quirks of the Dominions casting AI. Before casting a spell the casting AI will take a unit's current resistance into consideration. If the AI considers the unit's elemental resistance to be high enough it may refuse to cast the resistance buffing spell. When buffing resistances with spells it is important to be aware of the quirks of the Dominions casting AI.
