Resist: Resistance means you take less damage from a specific damage type. If you have resist 5 fire, then any time you take fire damage, you reduce that damage by 5. (An attack can’t do less than 0 damage to you.)The scenario that generated the question was with multiple instances of ongoing damage.  I had resist 5 poison, and two ongoing 5 poison damage from the same creature.  Does the resist negate all the damage because each ongoing source is separate, or does only half (5) get resisted because they essentially occur at the same time? My group hasn't arrived at a consensus.  The other questions that were raised in relation are: If it only is resisted once, is that once per creature that is providing the damage, once per round, once per each turn (multiple turns per round), or something else we didn't think of?</blockquote>
