	[[Loresinging]] can be used to detect the presence and amount of protection provided, as well as any potential vulnerabilities, but if the source of the item is unknown (i.e. if it came out of a locker after many years), a ranger should {{boldmono\|[[ASSESS]]}} the item if a natural resistance is detected that can be applied with the Resist Nature spell to determine whether the resistance is temporary and how many hits remain. A loresong will correctly identify that an item is temporarily resistant when it comes from the treasure system, and while resistance applied with Resist Nature will not explicitly be indicated as temporary, the song will usually provide the name of the ranger who imbued the resistance, as well as the wear and tear on the armor fittings. Warriors can also ASSESS armor to determine how many hits are remaining on the armor fittings.

			==Resistance and Critical Ranks==

			Critical damage in Gemstone is determined using a Damage Severity Weighting value, which is used to generate a critical rank which is taken off the appropriate critical table to deal damage and wounds. DSW works approximately the same way for non-weapon swinging attacks that [[raw damage]] works when swinging a weapon, except that only the critical is dealt to the target. The [[critical divisor]] is always 5 points for DSW-based attacks.

			Resistance to a damage type reduces the DSW of incoming attacks by that percentage, which can reduce the critical rank dealt and thus the health loss, wounds, and collateral effects from the attack.

			Whenever resistance to incoming damage is sufficient to reduce the critical rank dealt, the game displays a message indicating that your resistance lessened the damage of the attack.
