True Strike Description Is Outdated/Inaccurate

True Stike is described as ignoring all armor and resistances but this is only(?) physical and energy resistance tmk. This is confusing as there are bleed resistance characters where true strike does not bypass their resistance.

Guardian at max sig, with armor buff, has ~80% bleed resistance but bleeding him when true strike is active does not ignore that resistance.

    Yep, True Strike probably just applies to Physical and Energy Resistances, those are ones that have statistical values for each champ in addition to mastery modification of that Resistance (probably some synergies as well ?).

    Bleed damage is a fixed amount per attacker's current status, the opponents don’t have any inherent variable statistical Resistance value to Bleed. This 80% bleed damage reduction (and maybe other champs that either take xx% less damage, or reduces the duration) are sort of a different thing from “Resistance”.

    Additionally the inaccuracy of abilities that ignore resistances extends beyond that of true strike.

    Hit Monkey in his Primal Rage state ignores resistances but this do not extend to bleed.

    First bleed outside primal rage ticks for 11 and for the same while in the primal rage state.

    Yeah, yet they are described as resistance.
