Hickory: It makes absolutely no sense whatsoever. A resistance is just that, a resistance. It does not mean that above 100% you feed on that resistance, that's preposterous. Hypothetically, if you have a tough skin that gives you complete resistance to piercing arrows, that does not mean that improving your skin makes arrow *heal* you. It's nonsense.

Tallima: Now, I understand what you're saying. In the real world, it's nuts. But when the game did it, I figured it worked into their mythology in way that made sense. So fire resistance wasn't from a fire suit, it was from some elemental primordial essence that defines life itself. So it never triggered in my head that it was a glitch.
