Resistance
	Basic Resistance: endows a hero's troops with 5% magic resistance.
	Advanced Resistance: endows a hero's troops with 10% magic resistance.
	Expert Resistance: endows a hero's troops with 20% magic resistance.

Resistance is a secondary skill that increases the magic resistance of hero's troops.

Classes, unable to learn Resistance skill:

(They can only acquire the skill from Scholars, Witch Huts, Seer's Huts, Events or Pandora's Boxes).

Heroes with Basic Resistance as a starting skill:

Heroes with Resistance as a specialty and a starting skill:

Thorgrim the Ranger (Advanced Resistance) (NOTE: Banned by default in Horn of the Abyss )

The skill effect is negated if Orb of Vulnerability is present on the battlefield.

Horn of the Abyss[edit]

In Horn of the Abyss, Resistance since v.1.6.0 is banned by default, and all heroes that would start with Resistance start with Interference (a new secondary skill introduced in HotA), aside from Thorgrim, who is also banned by default and replaced with Giselle with Interference specialty.

The artifacts that form the new Pendant of Reflection are also changed from Resistance to Interference powers.

Resistance works against all spellcasters including neutral creatures, while Interference only works vs enemy heroes with high spell power.

Chance to get[edit]

Out of total 112 for Shadow of Death, and of (112 + Interference chance) for Horn of the Abyss .

Some may find the information in this section subjective or irrelevant.

While resistance may not be reliable, it can turn the tide of battle against a magic user when it takes effect, saving your troops from something very bad. They will survive a devastating damage spell or avoid being cursed or slowed (in case the spell is casted on your entire army, Resistance has a chance to protect ones who will really suffer from it, e.g. top speed troops will resist Slow). Resistance works at its finest in Rampart, as Dwarves and Unicorns can stop an enemy's spell on their own, and Rangers have the highest chance to learn the skill.

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.

-CBD has been proven to be a very popular natural remedy for sleep problems. For the many people who have issues with sleeplessness, especially if it is because of pain, CBD provides a healthy alternative to pharmaceutical pain killers.
-So how does CBD work?
-CBD is the abbreviation for cannabidiol, one of the many cannabinoids found in the cannabis plant. CBD is what gives the plant its many therapeutic effects. Scientists have identified at least 133 other
-active cannabinoids found in these plants, CBD being the most abundant cannabinoid. CBD has become popular as an ingredient in food supplements due to its many roles in regulating our bodies wellbeing.
-CBD on its own can’t get you ‘high’ and has no psychoactive properties whatsoever.
-So how does CBD work on the Endocannabinoid System (ECS) in the body?
-Only discovered in 1992 by scientists, ECS is a system within our bodies that works hard to regulate health and maintain homeostasis. It is thought to keep all other systems in our body in balance including: Immune functions, pain response, inflammation, mood control, sleep and memory.
-However, many external reasons during our busy, stressful, anxious everyday lives can cause our ECS to become less efficient. This can lead to what scientists call an endocannabinoid deficiency, where the body can become ‘less-balanced’ and illness can occur.
+Resistance works against all spellcasters including neutral creatures, while Interference only works vs enemy heroes with high [[spell power]].
-This is where CBD comes in to help with sleep…

-It has been recorded that CBD can also limit inflammation in the brain and nervous system, which may benefit people experiencing pain, insomnia and certain immune-system responses. Specifically CBD helps reduce pain-induced sleeplessness by working on the symptoms themselves rather than using the more usually prescribed sleeping pill. Additionally there are advantages of using CBD rather than sleeping pills which can be addictive. The World Health Organisation recently stated that: ‘CBD exhibits no effects indicative of any abuse or dependence potential.’
