Changes to Resistances
Patch 1.4.0, May 14, 2024
- All Resistance from Amulets has been increased from 19% to 25%.
- Single element resistance on Rings has been increased from 8% to 10%.
Patch 1.2.0, October 17, 2023
- Prior to Season of Blood (Season 2), Resistances stacked inverse multiplicatively, with each additional source of resistance becoming less effective.
- Example: You have three sources of 20% resistance. The first source would provide the full 20%, the second source would add 16%, and the third source would add 12.8%, totaling 48.8% resistance.
- Starting with Season of Blood, Resistances will now stack additively. Additionally, resistance stats now cap at 70%.
- Example: You have 30% resistance, and an item gives you 20% resistance. You now have 50% total resistance.
- Resistance boosting elixirs now also increase the player's maximum resistance value.
- World Tiers III & IV now apply a -25% and -50% penalty to Resistance to All Elements instead of a multiplier.
- Single Resistance affixes can now roll on Pants.
- Single Resistance affixes now contribute a maximum value of +35% Resistance for a fully upgraded Normal item, +48% for a Sacred, and +65% for an Ancestral to your total Resistance.
- All Resistance affixes now give a maximum value of +9% Resistance for a fully upgraded Normal item, +12% for a Sacred, and +16% for an Ancestral.
- Ring inherent affixes now give +% Resistance to All Elements and +% Single Resistance, instead of two +% Single Resistances.
- The maximum value is +6%/+6% for a fully upgraded Normal item, +8%/+8% for a Sacred, and +10%/+10% for an Ancestral.
- Amulet inherent affixes have been adjusted to +14% Resistance to All Elements for a fully upgraded Normal item, +19% for a Sacred, and +24% for an Ancestral.

- Crude: +8%
