Larian Studios Forums Divinity - Original Sin Divinity - Original Sin - General Tenebrium question

You will eventually gain the ability to touch Tenebrium without contracting Rot. It gets treated like any other damage type, like fire and poison and air, etc. 20% resistance to Tenebrium will work the same as 20% resistance to fire, once you get to that point. Until you get to that point you can still contract Rot, so don't touch any Tenebrium.
