Resistance VS Immunity
I have post this in another thread. But I want to make this as new topic too. Let's join!
Sometimes we meet some creatures unaffected by some spells. That can be two posibilities. First, the creatures are immune to the spell. Second, the creatures resistthe spell. Sometimes, as Angelito says, the H3 Help or the Manual is wrong in expression about Resistance and Immunity.
For Example :
1. The Manual wrote that Black Dragons are immune to all spells. This is wrong. It should be written that Black Dragons resist all spells.
2. Same as it, the Titans are not immune to mind spells. But resist mind spells.
3. Troglodytes are immune to Blind. This one is correct.
So, I want to explain which of them are Immunity, and which are Resistance
There are 3 types of creature in H3 : Living, Unliving, and Undead
LIVING CREATURES
Creatures commonly in H3. They have non-neutral morale and can be modified by spells, Artifacts, or hero's morale. All living Creatures are immune to Destroy Undead and Animate Dead. While some of them have some more Immunities or Resistances. Like :
Dwarves and Battle Dwarves
Resistance : Dwarves have 20% resistance (chance to resist) against all hostile spells. while Battle Dwarves have 40%.
Unicorns and War Unicorns
Resistance : 20% chance to protect adjacent allies form all hostile spells.
Green and Gold Dragons
Resistance : the Green Dragons resist all level 1-3 spells. While the Gold Dragons resist all level 1-4 spells.
Giants and Titans
Resistance : Resist all mind spells (Forgetfulness, Blind, Hypnotize, Berserk, Mirth, Sorrow)
Efreets and Efreet Sultans
Resistance : Resist all Fire Spells
Troglodytes and Infernal Trogs
Immunity : Immune to Blind
Red and Black Dragons
Resistance : the Red Dragons resist all level 1-3 spells. While the Black Dragons resist all spells.
Firebirds and Phoenixes
Resistance : Resist all Fire Spells
Azure Dragons
Resistance : Resist all level 1-3 spells.
UNLIVING CREATURES
These creatures have neutral morale (except Gargoyles) and can't be rescurrected. They are Gargoyles, Golems and Elementals. All unliving Creatures are immune to Destroy Undead, Animate Dead, Rescurrection, and Sacrifice. Gargoyles don't have some more immunities or resistances. But the Golems and Elementals have. Here are them :
Golems
Resistance : All types of Golems resists all mind spells, except Mirth and Sorrow.
Immunity : They are immune to Mirth and Sorrow.
Air and Storm Elementals
Resistance : All Earth spells. All mind spells, except Mirth and Sorrow.
Immunity : They are immune to Mirth and Sorrow.
Water and Ice Elementals
Resistance : All Water spells. All mind spells, except Mirth and Sorrow.
Immunity : They are immune to Mirth and Sorrow.
Fire and Energy Elementals
Resistance : All Fire spells. All mind spells, except Mirth and Sorrow.
Immunity : They are immune to Mirth and Sorrow.
Earth and Magma Elementals
Resistance : All Air spells. All mind spells, except Mirth and Sorrow.
Immunity : They are immune to Mirth and Sorrow.
Psychic and Magic Elementals
Resistance : Psychic Elems resist all mind spells except Mirth and Sorrow. While Magic Elems resist all spells except Mirth and Sorrow.
Immunity : They are immune to Mirth and Sorrow.
UNDEAD CREATURES
Undead Creatures are immune to all mind spells, including Mirth and Sorrow. They're also immune to Rescurrection, Sacrifice, Death Ripple, Bless, and Curse. They are :
Skeletons and Skel Warriors
Walking Deads and Zombies
Wights and Wraiths
Vampires and Vampire Lords
Liches and Power Liches
Black and Dread Knights
Bone and Ghost Dragons
Mummies
**Additional : All non-ranged attackers are immune, not resist Forgetfulness and Precision.
Besides, some artifacts can also bring Immunities or Resistances.
Resistance Artifacts
1. Garniture of Interference : 5% resistance
2. Surtcoat of Counterpoise : 10% resistance
3. Boots of Polarity : 20% resistance
Immunity Artifacts
1. Pendant of Life : Death Ripple
2. Pendant of Death : Destroy Undead
3. Pendant of Free Will : Hypnotize
4. Pendant of Total Recall : Forgetfulness
5. Pendant of Dispassion : Berserk
6. Pendant of Second-Sight : Blind
7. Pendant of Holiness : Curse
8. Pendant of Negativity : Lighting Bolt and Chain Lightning
9. Sphere of Permanence : Dispel
10. Armageddon's Blade : Armageddon
11. Power of Dragon Father : all 1-4 spells
Orb of Vulnerability negates all resistances, including Resistance skill and Artifacts, except Unicorns aura. It still works.
Orb of Vulnerability doesn't negate all immunities. Those immunities still work although the Black Orb are present
MODERATOR PLEASE REMOVE THIS THREAD. I'VE MADE MISTAKE. I SHOULD MAKE IT IN LIBRARY OF ENIGHTENMENT FORUM.
