Resistance

Resistance is a defensive stat in For The King

Description
"Blocks value of incoming magical damage."

Resistance reduces the magical damage you receive by however much resistance you have. It can reduce the damage all the way to 0, resulting in the "Resisted" pop up. Resistance is still vulnerable to Abilities with Ignore Resistance, and does nothing to prevent physical damage, or damage from ailments like Burning. Resistance is available on most armor, but the largest amounts can be found on Robes and other wizard gear.

Party Resistance
Party resistance is well named. It is resistance, but instead of affecting just the character with it equipped it affects the entire party... as long as the character with party resistance is alive in the combat.

Visual Indicatiors
Resistance values are indicated in combat by a purple shield symbol with a number inside, underneath the hit point bar of the enemy.

For players, the number is shown as a purple number inside a shield, to the left of the character portrait.
