[QUOTE="DumbPaladin, post: 5588345, member: 90770"] We discussed this a lot in our game once we hit 2nd level spells, because people wanted to start being resistant to 3 elements at once. Given that some monsters and spellcasters can hit players with energy type A as a standard action and energy type B as a different standard action, it didn't seem too much to give the players the ability to protect against all 5 energy types in 5 standard actions -- assuming you had that many spell slots or spell points or scrolls or whatever. Also, dispel magic can make them go away nicely. I agree with vegepygmy that fire resistance is not the same as sonic resistance, neither makes the other irrelevant, and the spell that created them, while named the same, isn't giving the same result so it's not falling under the "same effect with different results" rule. Unfortunately, there are not many spells that fall into this category, and the situation isn't clearly addressed. [/QUOTE]
