Your opinion on Resistance Skills

[Kage]

Hmm, Negative Actor Resistance.....
I actually spent points on those before and honestly it's kinda pain in the ass at first but later on its kinda a relief especially it helps me avoid irritating debuff( especially Idregh and Plaguestrider debuff[ I hate those])

[rijackson741]

They were added as skills for those that have reached such a high level that they have run out of other skills to take. As such, they are just interesting rather then useful. By the time you take them you can kill anything in the game anyway.

These skills give a very minor reduction of negative effect probability, so I say they are wasted skill points, even at high levels. It is much better to spend those SPs into increasing block chance, and prevent getting hit in the first place. Or increase AC and AD to kill those monsters quicker, not giving them a chance to inflict those conditions.
IMHO these skills should either be removed, or buffed up very significantly, to make them worth a skill point. And I mean at least 50% reduction, or even more. Or give the current maximum 70% for one point and let them have only one level. Maybe give them some prequisits, either a minimum character level or some other skills. Or both. Then they'd maybe worth that single point spent on them. I'm not sure I'd take them even then, but I'd at least consider it.

I confess that I have never considered taking them. Skills such as Cleave and Corpse eater are more useful.

[Antison]

Cleave is only attractive if you are at 3AP attack costs or are willing to go to Cleave level 2.

[rijackson741]

Even at level 1 it has benefits with higher attack cost weapons if you are fighting more than two opponents.

I agree, but only if you preplan your build.

I do but it's always a early tank. That's why I don't use stuff to heal but skill or items and beds of course.
Haven't tried to just use potions to do different. Always a warrior.
Only skill I want is a lighting one that can attack someone a square space a way

Like I'm on square on and they are on three. I know it's magic for that
But can we have a lighting skill? If we go the way I f a magi?
Same rules in the script but we can have a magi ability
