Anyone tried arena yet ?

Basically... with gear + gems you get more pvp power faster than you get damage reduction through resil which actually means throughout the seasons yes you will have more negation percentage but the increased damage will more than likely net a higher damage gain over said reduction. (vangurads did a whole video on this as well)

The pace at which resilience rating converts into absolute damage reduction slows down by each extra point of resilience rating you gain, which is basically a diminishing return on resilience rating for scaling purposes. However the importance/value of damage reduction increases the more you have. And it increases at a faster rate than the diminishing returns of resilience rating does, thus making resilience actually having stacking returns (dont know the exact word in English, but the returns do not diminish but increase)

Or ... the effect of adding resilience becomes bigger the more resilience you have. Thus resilience does not have diminishing returns whatsoever.



B is the amount of resilience you have
A is the amount of extra mitigation you get per extra point of resilience rating.
C is the value of damage mitigation

The first curve goes down slower than the 2nd one climbs, relative to your amount of resilience.

I'm not sure if I'm the best at explaining this, and it might be confusing, but this is how it works.

Edit: I didn't say / give the impression that pvp power is worse or better than resilience, I basically just commented on your statement that resilience has diminishing returns.
