If you don't want to answer to what i have to say it's fine...no one forces you to...but don't expect to win an argument that way.I took the paragraph/rule : "Same Effect with Differing Results", and attempted to decode it,so as to figure out what this "Usually" means......for there is a reason they added this word. Otherwise they would have skipped it.So until you provide me with ANOTHER translation of that "Usually", you do not have an argument. (I don't want to sound rude either, ...nor an a-ss, but that's how it is).Now as far as the:SRD:Note: Resist energy overlaps (and does not stack with) protection from energy. If a character is warded by protection from energy and resist energy, the protection spell absorbs damage until its power is exhausted....I think you did not give my first post in this thread the appropriate attention.The above is a 2003 rule.Then in 2007, WotC published Rules Compendium. In page 5 of the book they say:It updates and elucidates the rules, as well as expanding on them in ways that make it more fun and easier to play. When a preexisting core book or supplement differs with the rules herein, Rules Compendium is meant to take precedence. If you have a question on how to play D&D at the table, this book is meant to answer that question.and then...Rules Compendium (p48):Multiple sources of resistance to a certain energy type don’t stack with each other. Only the highest value applies to any given attack.This is a rule which clarifies what happens with all sources, not just the two spells, and also clarifies what happens with same/different energy types. So:Multiple sources of resistance to a certain energy type don’t stack with each other=Multiple sources of resistance to a different type "work" with each other.What is the meaning of "Usually" in the paragraph?What is the meaning of "Usually" in the paragraph?What is the meaning of "Usually" in the paragraph?What is the meaning of "Usually" in the paragraph?Did I translate it as never? NoWhat is the meaning of "Usually" in the paragraph?</blockquote>
