If you wear 2x dwarves with high MDR, there will be no damage remaining left in step 4 to heal you with. At lvl 90, you will have around a flat 66 fire absorb. Now let's see how Rising Sun interacts with this. And remember, with dwarf's 15% absorb, you will still be reducing another 60% of whatever damage is left after integer MDR. The only other consideration here is the sometimes conviction aura spawns, which will mean -75% fire res, and some % more than 25 dmg per bolt.Īssuming 2x 15mdr dwarves, even at -20% fire res you will take 0 damage. 2x 15mdr = 30, which is greater than 25dmg per bolt.

So let's look at a typical build with 2xdwarf stars. Whatever is reamining from step 3, add healing from integer absorb

% absorb by itself will never heal you, under any circumstances.Ĥ. Whatever is remaining from step 2, calculate % absorb. Whatever is remaining from step 1, calculate damage after % resistģ. The order of operations to calculate elemental damage isĢ. Hydra from Council members do approx ~150dmg per bolt, but this is subject to the 1/6 penalty for reasons, so 150/6 = ~25dmg per bolt. TLDR #2: If you for some reason are using rising sun (lol), having integer MDR or % fire absorb or even positive fire resistance will SLOW your healing from fire damage. TLDR: with 2x dwarf stars and 0 fire resist, you will take 0 hydra damage.

There seems to be a huge misunderstanding with how all the resist calculations work. The cookie cutter infernostride builds, 10gf/11fr scs, etc. Not sure why people stack a shit ton of fire res while running trav for gf.
