Is max sig Diablo immune to energy damage?

There is one potion that gives him 70% regen on incoming energy damage, (like Gulk), and if he is poisoned at max sig, he reduces incoming damage by 30%.

I am assuming that all that is is instead of regenerating 70% of energy damage and ignoring the other 30%, it’s just going to reduce it and regenerate 49% and only take 21% incoming energy damage.
Could a mod confirm this interaction?

Well, they're about to redesign/buff him.

Why not wait and see if he still has either of these abilities in a week's time, then ask in his new Spotlight?

What? This is from his spotlight

Likely what you said, reduces damage by 30% and then heals 70% of what he still takes

Way too OP if he was immune. Probably gonna be the latter interaction

thanks4playing

dont forget about the mastery interaction with recovery (and i guess WP too?). eitehr way i t;hink the results are going to be really good. can't wait to see it in game tho.

Oh God, I might actually 5r5s200ing my Diablo, lmao. I also have the 6*, so it depends on the sig scaling.

I mean you do have to have your potion and a poison up simultaneously for both reductions so it’s not like power stone hulk energy immune but it could still be very good.

Lol wait until we know for sure just in case

Recovery takes it to about 80% healing when taking energy damage, which is decent. Keep in mind, this is only after launching a special.

Immunity and resistance are a massive difference.

100% resistance > immunity.

Iron_Patriot_is_lit

Oh, wow. I guess I never put 2 and 2 together and realized just how huge sig 200 is for Diablo…

I can’t believe your actually gaining health from energy attacks with distilled will ingredient + recovery.

Anyone know if this applies to debuffs and/or blocked hits? This could be MAJOR.

I would rather have immunity then resistance, as immunity rarely has a punishing effect, resistances on the other hand have many punishing effects Tied in with some beneficial.

I'd rather willpower *shrug* to each their own.

But a good shout is that WP healing may be heavily mitigated due to the poisons

This was from the buff spotlight.

Ye I didn't realize we were on a diablo thread. I meant in general. Definitely a very good point.

Colonaut123

Seeing poison reduces healing by 30%, unlikely.

The_Sentry06

Resistance is nice for WP but then on nodes with enhanced debuff damage, you're screwed. Down to personal perference really.

Hammerbro_64

Can someone with a max sig Diablo +liquid courage check this?

AverageDesi

his 30% from sig ablity worls like namors 100%. so if the original energy damage was something like 1000, he only takes 700. when he takes this 700, he regens 70% of that damage taken. so he would heal 490. so in total effect he only loses 210. so this is like an effective 79% damage reduction.

why would you think of adding them though? they're totally different type of ablities

Hammerbro_64

I stated myself in the original post that I assumed it would be an effective 79% reduction, but I wanted to see just in case because interactions can be weird.
