Ring of Hotek and Power of Darkness

Post by Gidean »

Does the MR granted by the Ring of Hotek protect the sorceress against the damage caused by the Power of Darkness spell when she gets 3 power dice on the D3? It allows no armor saves but appears to allow wards. The damage appears to be from the "spell" so all the criteria appear to be present. I don't think it is akin to miscast damage (which is NOT from a spell). Thoughts? :?

Yes. The damage is a result of a spell, hence magic resistance gives you saves against it.

That's how I read it as well. I don't see any room for it to be contested. :)
