Talk:Lower Resistance/@comment-213.91.196.4-20170207125221

In some cases (like when facing dragons) lower level parties are actually better off using Magic Resistance (Spell), a priest spell, on enemies. Likewise, it allows no saving throw and actually sets MR to (caster level)*2%. Thus a level 12 cleric will set the dragon's MR to 24%, while a wizard of the same level will lower its MR by -22%. Now, if that dragon has 60% MR it's obvious that 24%<(60%-22%) and thus Magic Resistance is the clear winner.
