Default Re: Ward cumulativity

I find it pretty weird how resistances stack: Having 50% and another 50% should not give 100%, but merely 75%. Go into any shop and buy something with 50% off and haggle to get another 25% off, which leaves you with a total of 62.5% off (0.5 * 0.75 = 0.375 = 1 - 0.625 = 62.5%). I think the usual way of stacking such percentage reductions should be by multiplying them...

BTW, do natural resistances always stack with anything else (e.g. the 50% poison resistance of C'tis troops)?
