I don't have a problem with that 80% cap! But did anyone noticed that resistance maniplated buffs/debuffs ignore the fact that you have over 80% resistance?
Let's have a look at my warriors fireresistance:
+115 from Equipment +25 from Weather the Storm
effective I have 80% (thanks to the cap), but when i receive the status "warm" and surprise, surprise: I have 70% fireresistance, now. So i can throw away "Weather the Storm" and a lot of my equipment.
I see here two solutions:
1. give us back our old resistances (remove the cap) for having resistances like this, you have not the highes damage.
2. fix it that a reduction of resistances first get subtracted from your "over 80% resistances"
Example:
+115 from Equipment +25 from Weather the Storm = 140
effective I have 80%
now get "warm":
+115 from Equipment +25 from Weather the Storm = 140 -10 from "warm"
