Resistance to elements protects from fatigue?
 

Does grip of winter and heat from hell still fatigue units with 100% cold and fire protection? Does stuff like breath of winter/heat auras still fatigue units who are not naturally protected from heat and cold, but have 100% resistance?

I guess it does, my abysians don't kill themselves. I've never seen my thugs with rime hauberk and 100 % cold res kill themselves either.

No, they do not affect units with the elemental resistances, no matter how hat resistance has been acquired. The heat and chill auras would be mighty goddamn useless otherwise.

What about 50% protection?

Re: Resistance to elements protects from fatigue?
 

Lessens the fatigue you take, but you still get it. Which is why Abysian units die when they get Protection, Mass Protection or Wooden Warriors cast on them.

So tell me this. If cold spells never fatigue you if you have 100% resistance, why do you get encumbrance penalties in cold provinces? http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif

Re: Resistance to elements protects from fatigue?
 

You don't, unless you're cold-blooded. Resistance does not help cold-blooded units avoid cold-blooded encumbrance penalties due to cold scales.

Cold resistance above 0% does help all units avoid normal (non-cold-blooded) encumbrance penalties for cold scales.

It's a bit odd in a way that some nations like heat dominion, yet they don't have racial fire res, hence they get encumbered (I believe). On the other hand they usually have lighter armour, so they don't suffer the enc as much. Doesn't help with mages though.

Re: Resistance to elements protects from fatigue?
 

Doesn't it take Heat 3 before the encumberance comes in, and the highest heat pref non-abysian nation has is Heat 2 IIRC.

They're still better off than Agartha, who are cold-blooded but don't prefer heat.

Do Africans have fire resistance IRL? http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/wink.gif
