Magic Resistant is one of the attributes that Unique Monsters can spawn with in Diablo II. This attribute is the elemental mirror of the Stone Skin attribute. If a monster spawns with both, it will be incredibly resistant to most types of attacks.
What It Does[]
A Magic Resistant monster will be given 40 more resistance to Fire, Lightning, and Cold damage only if it is below 100%.
Tips[]
- Elemental attacks will be quite ineffective against these monsters. Seek out physical, poisonous, or pure magic attacks (such as Bone Spear or Bone Spirit).
- Oddly, this attribute does not render the monster resistant to actual magic. So your pure magic attacks will still work. (Necromancers rejoice!)
- The monster will not be completely immune to your elemental attacks, so you can still use them if you have no alternative.
