Resistance (attribute)

Some characters have various resistances or weaknesses to certain classes of weapons, such as Energy, Sonics or Blinding. There are 3 levels of resistance and weakness to each class of attack. If you are applying for an Original Character, note that each level of resistance is progressively harder to get approved. For most higher level resistances you'll be expected to take an equal amount of weaknesses in other categories.

Note: The most common classes count for more per level than other classes.


 * EXPL and BLST are 2x normal value. ENRG and EDGE are 3x. BLOW is 4x.
 * MISC is not a valid resistance or weakness.

Level 1
 * Resistance - This class of attacks hurts you noticably less than other attacks.
 * Weakness - You take extra damage from this class of attacks.

Level 2
 * Resistance - You take only half damage from this kind of attack and are immune to stuns from this class.
 * Weakness - Double damage, generally leading to painful stat loss.

Level 3
 * Resistance - You shrug off all but the most concentrated assaults from this breed of weapon.
 * Weakness - Crippling weakness. A single shot will nearly kill you.
