Resistance (ego)

Resistance is a rare ego which grants you one rank in both fire and cold resistance. It is only found on robes and shields of all sizes.

A shield of resistance is an amazing find, far more useful than any other possible shield ego unless you already have full resistances from other sources. A robe of resistance is also extremely useful, allowing many species with equipment restrictions to fill out their resistances easily. However, the low AC and complete lack of GDR on robes may make heavier armour preferable, especially if you find a randart with a better assortment of resistances. Even so, it is still an excellent choice for casters and EV-based fighters.
