Subject: Soft Cap on Resists (was: Patch Message)


I understand that. It just seems that when I see people running from
a dragon, they are in the bardless groups. Of course I don't know
what their resists were at. But that isn't important. What I really
want to know is how extensively has anyone tested this? Or is this
soft cap stuff all just hearsay from a friend of a friend that works
for Verant?

But you know, I don't think that this is a real threat anyway since
we are the ones that will push everyone over 175.
