== Discussion ==
It is a common misconception that [[Garniture of Interference]], [[Surcoat of Counterpoise]] or [[Boots of Polarity]] would increase the resistance secondary skill in a similar way that for example [[Bow of Elven Cherrywood]] increases [[Archery]] skill. However, this is not the case. The "resistance artifacts" increase the [[magic resistance]] of creatures in a similar way Resistance secondary skill does. Basically this means, that wearing any of those artifacts gives the magic resistance bonus with or without the resistance skill – unlike with archery artifacts and Archery skill.
While resistance may not be reliable, it can turn the tide of battle against a magic user when it takes effect.
