The amulets also provide some concrete immunities, in case you're interested in those, too.

Alson, not all elemental is stopped by MR, and I am trying to make this WS->T as tough as possible.
That's why I said "Most".

However... elemental damage that is not stopped by M.R. is a small, small minority. To tell the truth, I gave it a lot of thought when designing my solo no reloads F/M/T (currently in the Underdark, if anyone actually cares) setup - but, as it soon became clear to me, even a measly +1 saves bonus is better than a few more % of elemental resistance - as 100% M.R. covered my tooshie well and good. For crying out loud, even Flame Jet and Magma Ball are stopped by M.R.!

ADD] I'm just wondering how to defend against Sanchu. Unless the acid checks for MR?
Without magic (=using items only)?
