Was still a great watch anyways.

Watching those basalt king raids has been painful.

Honestly with how many games/turn files you're managing at this point I'm surprised you haven't have more issues. Great job so far. And the video still turned out pretty entertaining!

i love the Atlantis player. their diplomacy is just hilarious

Resistance stacking is pretty simple, everything except spells stack with everything else. Resistances from spells will stack on top on any resistances the unit already have, but resistance from different spells do never stack with each other. The spellcasting AI seems unfortunately to think that resistances from spells don't stack with any existing resistance and will typically refuse to cast resistance spells on units that already have as much or more resistance than the spell provide.

King Sebastian keeps delivering.

It's alright, was still cool.

I think that's a known bug with resistance. Where if the caster has resistance and you want to cast a resistance spell, sometimes they just won't cast it. Which could mess you up if you were casting an army wide resistance spell. Also relevant in cases where you want to get your resistance to the 30's for specific duties. As far as I know it's additive and basically works like armor against that elemental type. It also is effective against things like Chill aura but I am not sure about what it's rolling against.

I think Lucid mentions that resistances used to work differently than before and back then casting resistance on top of already existing resistances was waste of time due to how resistance was calculated so the AI basically refused to do it to prevent wasted casting Then the resistance calculation changed but the AI was not

In Dom 4 resistances used to be percentage based so if you cast to go over 100 the AI wouldn't do it. Now they are a straight reduction in damage but if you are over 15 or something the AI usually skips it. To be fair the AI also does that if you have low fatigue and want to cast e.g. reinvigoration. Arguably it's the most confusing and annoying thing in Dominions. If I want 30 Cold resistance just freaking do it !

@@DPuljiz Nope, resistances worked exactly the same way in dom 4 as they now do in Dom 5, and dom 4 had the exact same problem with mages refusing to cast resistance spells if they were already resistant. You need to go back to Dom 3 (or possibly even Dom 2 for resistances to be percentage based)
