This compares the same ordinary damage in a level 75+ area before other defenses or effects that lower resistance. Armor helps against hits, not damage over time.

Good to know

Why does the page use level 75 or higher?

Enemies gain penetration as area level rises, up to 75%. This page uses the confirmed 75% value for areas at level 75 or higher.

Does resistance above 75% reduce ordinary damage further?

No. Resistance is capped at 75% before normal area penetration. Extra resistance can protect against effects that lower it.

Will this tell me why every attack kills me?

No. It checks one resistance gap. Hits and damage over time interact with other defenses differently.
