<![CDATA[Latest posts for the thread "Old Lores and MR."]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/list/93.page JForum - http://www.jforum.net Old Lores and MR. IIRC, MR gives you a better ward save vs Direct Damage and Magic Missiles.

How do you play it against spells from the older lores?
I'm thinking, lore of darkness and Steal Soul. S2 hit, no save on unit, can be cast into close combat.
How about blade wind?
What about foot of gork and warpath?

Which far too many of the dangerous spells say, hence why MR is largely worthless in this edition.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/335171/2259289.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/335171/2259289.page GMT Old Lores and MR. MR when a non-targeting spell (like Purple Sun) wafts over you.

...then again, you don't get MR when someone casts a non-damaging spell at you.

...yeah, Magic Resistance is not very good. Unless it's on Flesh Hounds.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/335171/2268565.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/335171/2268565.page GMT Old Lores and MR.

Nope, MR is a ward save and Purples sun disallows saves of any kind, not to mention it dosent cause wounds it directly removes models.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/335171/2268597.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/335171/2268597.page GMT Old Lores and MR.
I was just pointing out that MR in 7th would have been useless against a spell that doesn't target it, but now MR doesn't always work against spells that do anyway, so it's basically a wash in that aspect, and it's worse now in others.

Except, I guess, when daemons have MR1. In 7th, that was basically garbage, where it might actually be good now.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/335171/2268853.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/335171/2268853.page GMT
