5244 <attribute arch="resist_weaponmagic" editor="resist weaponmagic %" length="15" type="int">
5245 This adds weaponmagic resistance to the weapon. The number is a percent-value in
5246 the range 0-100. Weaponmagic resistance generally should not exist on
5247 equipment at all. Spells/Monsters doing weaponmagic damage (e.g. comet spell)
5248 are not meant to be easily resisted.

5255 <attribute arch="resist_poison" editor="resist poison %" length="15" type="int">
5256 This adds poison resistance to the weapon. The number is a percent-value in

5261 This adds fear resistance to the weapon. The number is a percent-value in
5262 the range 0-100. Resistance to fear is pretty useless.

5265 This adds paralyze resistance to the weapon. The number is a percent-value in
5266 the range 0-100. Paralyze resistance is little effective

5275 in the range 0-100. Depletion resistance is little effective

5278 <attribute arch="resist_death" editor="resist death-attack %" length="15" type="int">
5279 This adds death-attack resistance to the weapon. The number is a
5280 percent-value in the range 0-100. Death-attack resistance is little
5281 effective unless the value is 100 (= perfect immunity).
5282 Generally, resistance to death-attack is not supposed to be
5283 available to players!
5284 </attribute>
5285 <attribute arch="resist_chaos" editor="resist chaos %" length="15" type="int">
5286 This adds chaos resistance to the weapon. The number is a percent-value in
5287 the range 0-100. Treat this with CARE. Look at other maps and what they
5288 require to do for getting this-and-that artifact.
5289 Note that chaos is not a stand-alone attacktype. Chaos "contains" a
5290 combination of other attacktypes.
5291 </attribute>
5292 <attribute arch="resist_blind" editor="resist blinding %" length="15" type="int">
5293 This adds blinding resistance to the weapon. The number is a percent-value

5298 This adds holy power resistance to the weapon. The number is a percent-value
5299 in the range 0-100. Holy power is the attacktype that holyword-type spells
5300 use to hurt undead creatures. This kind of resistance is only reasonable
5301 for undead players (wraith or devourer cult).
5302 Generally, resistance to holy word should not be available for players.
