p.s. The reason for the "yes?" on the first bunch of testing is I thought I had it set to yes, but then later on when I went to change it to "No" for more testing, it was already set to "No." But I couldn't remember if I had changed it already or not. So I did two retests later and verified the results.
Conclusion is the following formula:
Chance to Resist = if( TYPEofRESIST=Never , 0 , IF( ANTI_MAGIC=Yes or TYPEofRESIST=Yes , IF( MR>196 , 0.98 , MR/200 ) , 0 ) )
e.g. ...
- If the spell's "type of resist" setting is "never", no one can resist it, ever.
- If the spell's "type of resist" is "no" and Anti-Magic = No then resist chance = 0
- If the spell's "type of resist" is "yes" or Anti-Magic = Yes and the spell's "type of resist" is anything but "never" then the resist chance is:
IF MR>196 then 0.98 else MR/200
Now I did notice something interesting at the end of my testing, and it looks like you can have a negative damage resistance value which I'm testing now...
