and 25% in hell then.

Didn't i just say 50%?

[Crash]

hard capped 50% in all difficulties + 75% from at least 5 soft points in summons, pretty sure. what istaryu said

and 25% in hell then.

Didn't i just say 50%?

I said that because I thought maximum amount of minion resistances taken into consideration was 50. I don’t know where I read that. I don’t use summons often and ot shows haha

[Solfege]

I remember reading somewhere that minions inherit 15% all resistances per skill level, up to 75% at lvl 5. Is this based on hard points ot soft points ?

Also if I’m not mistaken having an additional 50% minion resistances on gear allows them to reach 75% in nightmare and 25% in hell. You can’t go higher if I’m right.

Anyone can confirm this ?

Unless it changed in Sigma, minion res works like this:

Summoned minions gain +15% per Skill Point into a summon skill (hard or soft point), up to 75%.

An additional +25% from gear/Charms/etc. will make them immune in Normal, and +75% will make them immune in Nightmare.
In Hell, that additional +75% will give them 50% total res, which is the highest it can go in Hell.

There's technically no "cap" on minion res, but since they can't utilize more than what's listed, it's basically a distinction without a difference.

Thanks. Still theorycrafting my char and this helped me out.

Another random question here. Existing characters will get the benefit of enhanced regular quests if they completed it before ?

[Crash]

unlikely. you'll have to do the quest again (i.e. start new), I'd imagine.

Is there any way to cube either the Horadric Staff or Khalim's Will or will I have do those quests in every difficulty?

In older versions of Median, you could shortcut those with a cube recipe.
Now just spend 5 minutes and do them, such wow.

Since Hammer of Zerae still deals WDM even though it's a spell... does attack rating still need to be increased for a better chance to hit?
