The spell magic resistance your mage can cast which gives 10% magic resistance +1% per level of the caster is good to use. This is a spell that can be used to add magic resistance to a party member OR lower the resistance of a creature.

It's kind of like the spell that gives everyone in your party 18 strength. This actually lowers the level of someone with 18/whatever or 19+ strength instead of raising it. If you cast magic resistance on a creature with a super high resistance you'll actually lower their resistance to what you can provide. If they still have a blue circle, casting it won't even turn them hostile because it's a defensive/beneficial spell.

This is not a glitch either, it's the way the spell works.

I've heard this works on the Red Dragon, but my monk used quivering palm on him...

Happy New Year

hmm... if that is the case... what is the use of lower resistance in the game IF the magic resistance works the same way... ???

Magic resistance takes a full round to cast and you need to be right next to whoever you're casting it on. Lower resistance works as a field spell, like chaos or emotion, affecting multiple enemies, and is cast relatively quickly.

It worked on Firkaag alright! A Red, Ancient Dragon got pelted by Magic Missiles... how pathetic... well that was after I cast Magic Resistance on the guy.
