Multiple instances of resistance don’t add together. Either you have resistance to an instance of damage or you don’t (see PH, 197). No matter how many things give you resistance to the damage you’re taking, you get to apply resistance to that damage only once.
Can you have double resistance?
You can’t have “double resistance.” That is immunity and neither effect listed grants immunity. Once the DM has chosen if its the “last applied effect” or the strongest, that is the decision forevermore in the campaign for any attempt to stack effects.
Does double resistance grant immunity?
Neither immunity nor quarter damage; you can only have resistance once.
Do you stack all instances of resistance in DND?
Nope, they don’t stack. Multiple instances of resistance or vulnerability that affect the same damage type count as only one instance. For example, if a creature has resistance to fire damage as well as resistance to all nonmagical damage, the damage of nonmagical fire is reduced by half against the creature, not reduced by three-quarters.
Is there a way to stack resistances in RuneScape?
Resistances do not stack, although “halving damage taken” can stack, if received from different sources. Warding Bond does two things regarding damage: gives resistance to all damage to the target of the spell, and has the caster take damage in equal amount to that received by the target.
