Great video, thanks. I just got back to D2R and the sundered charms made no sense to me. So basically just stack up on small charms with the resistance you're using on the sundered to make up for the negative. I have a question though please. Would the conviction aura on infinity stack up with the -5% ress (from 100%) that you get from the charm? So does that translate to additional damage?

Yes with the 1/5th penalty on Conviction or Lower Res.

If we use infinity though is it like i think it is? 95 % -17% which is 78% lightning resistance for example or is it like before for example 110res monster-17 = 93 res. I guess I am wondering if infinity is better with sunder or is it the same. Is the reduced 1/5 effectiveness of infinity taking place after sundering the monster's immunity of before?

[@GGMentor]

Better of course the lower the better. Yes the 1/5th penalty still applies. But 95% res is a lot easier to bring down then 110 or 120 and all monsters will break

[@redelfshotthefood8213]

I thought the trade off of a sunder charm was obvious. Until you can lower their res some other way, sundering isn’t useful. But hey. I’m still in nightmare because I love to play too many classes at once.

[@stuka80]

Im gonna have to disagree on the usefulness. Obviously you are gonna try to make up for the negative resistance but even with it being in the far negative, i went from farming at a snails pace due to the monster immunities or outright avoiding the area altogether, to instantly able to farm efficiently at a similar pace as before i encountered the immune monsters. The benefits of sundering immunities far far outweight its negative. You'll realize this when you get to hell mode.

[@AlekTrev006]

@@stuka80 I think he just means, ‘IF we had ONLY the Sunders, and Immune enemies could only ever be broken to 95% Resistant, then they’d not be THAT exciting or earth-shattering”. Dealing only 5% of your listed damage to enemies with 3000-10,000 HP in Hell Difficulty would be kind of painful / take forever, and most Players would still try to skip or ignore them.

I thought the charm will only sunder mobs that are immune and make it at 95% resistance. So a mob at 99% (still not immune) it will still be at 99%. A mob with 50% resistance will remain at 50%. Am I understanding it correctly?

[@johnt836]

I'm pretty sure there are zero monsters with resists in the rangevof 95% to 99%. OG Blizzard North programmers liked multiples of 5. So your question is not applicable.

Can you do a video about physical charms? How does a sunder effect physical immune and what skills would pair with it. Like for example, how does Amazon's-define skill effect the sunder.

[@vf-1gprototype465]

What I'm playing around with is amazon strafe/multishot with max inner sight and physical sunder. Physical imune is different then elemental, isn't it? Would something like amp damage work better then -enemy defence?

[@Danger05Productions]

@@vf-1gprototype465 the physical sunder charm doesn't boost your damage, it just allows you to damage physical immunes as it sets their physical resistance to 95%. And physical is different from elemental, yes. Elemental is cold, fire and lightning. There is a sunder charm for each of those.

[@vf-1gprototype465]

Yeah I know it doesn't boost damage but what I'm trying to ask is there another way to lower the physical resistance past 95, like cold mastery. Isn't physical resistance just defence?

[@vf-1gprototype465]

Sunder brings it to 95 then you cast inner sight with -40 defence, is that the same as physical resistance. That's my question I guess.

Are you sure it lowers 99% resistance to 95% It's supposed to only work against immunities.

[@GGMentor]

since 99% resistant monsters don't exist, it's a moot point

[@MystiqWisdom]

It's a double-edged sword, basically, except that it does actually hurt you, not that it _could_ hurt you.

[@ji604]

It's an item with two affixes. The "sunder" effect is new, and -% to [your] resist already exists in the game. Other items have affixes that are "-% fire resist", such as Andariel's Visage. This second affix on the charm had the exact same wording as existing items with the detrimental effect. That's what's mildly mind-blowing; people aren't reading them as two affixes, they're somehow assuming they're connected despite the wording being consistent among all such items. The real issue is that the wording for -% to enemy resist says enemies, and the wording for -% to your resist doesn't, and is "implied". Diablo I had personal resistances, so they just copied the wording for those affixes for D2. When they added enemy resist modifiers in D2, they had to differentiate and didn't bother to change the personal resist wording.

[@ArchDaemon41]

its not that deep

[@johnnywatson4629]

Will sunder set monster's resistance up to 95% if it is below 95% before?

[@GGMentor]

No, it only changes their resistance if they are above 100%

[@johnnywatson4629]

@@GGMentor Thank you.

[@John-ev3rm]

Blizzard always said a monsters immunity to any element is the same things as 100% resistance to that element, but if a monster can have over 100% resistance to an element , then reducing a monster's resist down to 95% resist could be significant, otherwise a mere %5 reduction would not justify the huge player resistance cost of wearing one.

[@GGMentor]

Not really, breaking resistances is very difficult, what made just look like 5% is actually a lot more because of the way that penalties work above 100%.

[@Yumums]

A new Diablo friend I have thinks the -res is both what the monster res is set at and your own resistance as well. He refuses to listen to me.

[@nathr7375]

Didn't know this actually needed explaining

[@otrotland5377]

so does having two of the same sunder charms reduce the monster below 95%

[@GGMentor]

no because sunder charms don't reduce the monsters resistance by a Number, They simply set the Monsters Resistance to 95% at the start of the calculation. Multiple Sunders would set the Monsters Resistance to 95% multiple times... which would just be 95% ok your 95% ok your 95% ok your 95% ok your 95% ok your 95% ok your 95%....

[@ozgun6224]

[@offspringngrndy7]

"Even if the monster's resistance is 3000% it sets it to 95%" Some monsters actually do have 1000% resistance (Gargoyle Trap for cold) and sunder charms do not break their immunity. I guess the devs picked a number as an upper limit and forgot about those.

[@GGMentor]

It's funny though I can still kill gargoyle traps I think it's a graphical glitch. And even if the gargoyle traps are not affected I really doubt it's because thei resistance is too high. It's much more likely they just got left out for some reason either accidentally or deliberately

[@mattbamford7269]
