Hello,
I have a question about 'Effectiveness' as seen in the examine window of Mobs and Pets (like Kinetic 10%) ... Can someone explain to me, what that means ?
And yes, i have been searching, but after page eight i gave up 
Many thanks for your help !

Ok here it goes. Lets say you /target an enemy mob and /examine them. Lets say it looks like this:
Resistance
Kinetic 10%
Cold 20%
Vulnerable

What that 10% on kinetic resistance means that whatever Kinetic Damage you do to that mob will be reduced by 10%. Lets say you do cold damage to him, whatever cold damage you do will be reduced by 20%. Where it says Vulnerable means that those are different types of damage you can do without having any drop because that specific mob has no resistance to it. Lets say you hit this particular mob for 1000 Kinetic Damage, 10% will be taken off and 900 Kinetic Damage will go through. Ya get it?
I hope i helped, andi hope you werent talking about something else... or else im stupid. Anyways, good luck.
There is a third field called 'effectiveness' - I also dont know what this means, but never really bothered to ask. Maybe someone can't elaborate on it for us.
