    I was wondering whether or not you can have 0 damage taken with 100% resist(physical/magic). Is it possible to do that? Or does the stat have max value that doesn't go up to 100%?

    For example, max refined, add, arm And shield gives you 45% magic resist, circle of order for 20%, imperial shield + 20% magic resist, lil empress garb +25% resist, it goes well beyond 100% at 105%

    It can break the game, so no, that's not possible. ^_^

    So what's the max? Or does the stat on gears differs from the refinement?

    if u focus too much on resistance u will loose on aggro side. A tank is most delicate build in toram u have to balance between resistance and aggro and u gotta have deep understanding of boss mechanics btw resistances are never 100 perc expect for ailment

    Yes 0 dmg is possible. Just spam the skill P.Def
    Not enough mp? Ditch all aggro and resistance for ampr and you are all set.

    Well, I'm not talking about p.def, I'm just curious on how much damage reduction can be achieved simply by using gears alone

    Also, you cant achieve full protection with p.def spam, the delay is still there

    You should read a guide made by some loser in here (thats me)
    If you cant be bothered then remember this.
    Damage cut by refine =/= resistance.
    It will be applied first and then resistance next. 45% from arm/add/shield is applied first and then resistance stat from equips.
    1000 > 550 > 275 > 247
    Thats how the damage mitigation will take place.
    Phys/Mag resist from equip and buffs/gems too always shave at 50% meaning 80% resistance is actually 50% + 30% that is actually 65% reduction not 80%

    Yes you can. You are talking like bosses dont have delays themselves. I have tanked so many ulti bosses where I just use pdef and autos nothing else throughout no eb too. No losing aggro either if you got guardian on close range fighter and long rangers got sneak. Tanking is legit the easiest job in this game.

    First of all, thank you for the wholesome answer, the reason why I made the thread is because I couldn't be bothered to skim through the site, yes. Second, I'm a noob so I was asking purely out of curiosity, I'm not implying that I want to make a tank or anything, its just that I find my shield mage took noticeably less damage compared to when I equipped dagger so yeah, Im actually asking for something basic

    Np sorry for assuming its for tank hahaha other replies implied that it was for a tank. Imperial shield indeed very good for shield mage as stray blue aoes tend to be magic. I dont recommend trying to +S arm/add/shield if you are just starting out. Aim for +C on all first then try to +B
    For extra mitigation try getting protection and aegis skills. Force + magic shield passive skills are also pretty useful now. I prefer tyrant grievance NPC version than circle of order as it gives matk too.

    My staff tank has like 2k mp just for spamming P. def and provoke lol, I'm wearing magician's ring, charm belt, lil empress garb, dark general shield and priest mace, It's going pretty well so far. My tank's modus operandi is to just spam provoke and P.def for aggro and research the boss' pattern beforehand to find a 6 second window that I could use to mp charge+maximizer to replenish all my mp, and then spam P.def and provoke again as well as other interruptions when necessary

    I didn't get aegis and protection as tanks usually have it, And go for brave aura and max heal instead, it could be possible to get them if I reset my support skill and take some out of skills like recovery (maxed out, but barely ever need it max) and some SP that I put on first aid because of the frequency of my party mates dying lol, that's extra 8 sp, and add some star gems. Well, I'm pretty much still at the stage of self-farming for mats for Spina earning so I need to get better at that first, capping blacksmith will take a while too, not to mention production type blacksmith, Ive only made smith for my own needs

    That's interesting tank build, but tank mages problem is that you can't do interrupt skill effectively because of the hit rate, for most battle its enough to just lure and get the aggro but I find tanks with interrupt skills useful in some cases

    Nvm, priest mace can compensate with the lack of accuracy
