Alter Aeon FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions)

FAQ 6.8 - What are resistances? do I want them to be + or -?

Resistances protect you against various spells or damage types, such as
fire, ice, lightning, or dragonbreath.  You always want positive
resistances if possible.

You can use the 'elemental lore' skill and the 'stat' commands to
see your resistances and saving spell protection.
