Resist Magic

Resist Magic is a High-level class ability available to fighters, paladins and rangers that sets the character's Magic Resistance to 50%. Unlike other effects that do so (eg Carsomyr's), this is not cumulative with a character's natural Magic Resistance (like that of Wizard Slayers) nor can it be increased by reequipping items that give additional Magic Resistance (such as the Ring of Gaxx).
Moreover, the effect is also considered magical, meaning it can be dispelled or even removed via something like Pierce Magic. And, despite the rigidity of the effect when it comes to further increases in Magic Resistance, it doesn't protect the caster against effects that lower Magic Resistance (eg Lower Resistance). Finally, Magic Resistance (the spell) will also completely overwrite the effect of Resist Magic, setting the Magic Resistance of the character to a new percentage.
In short, while this ability is in effect, a warrior cannot obtain more than 50% Magic Resistance by any means, but their resistance can still be lowered below that percentage (not to mention that the whole effect can be dispelled).
