Melding of the Flesh Cobalt Jewel not working as u say

(-80–-70)% to all Elemental Resistances
Elemental Resistances are capped by your highest Maximum Elemental Resistance instead
For example, if you obtain Fire resistance(83%), Cold resistance(46%), and Lightning resistance(76%), by using this jewel, Fire/Cold/Lightning resistance will all become 83%.

When one of these three resistances gets a new higher value, the other two resistances will become the new value as well. For example, Lightning resistance obtains 85%, the other resistances automatically become 85% too.

On the other hand, even if only the highest resistance decreases, the other two resistances will decrease too.

this is not working as intended. tested many ways

yep is dont working

I can confirm that Melding of the Flesh didn't work as described. I get the -70 all resi from mine in my defence tab but not the cap to the max value.
And if i try to run a map with these I get now nearly oneshottet by elemental attacks of the decreased value elements. So i am pretty sure that it's not only a display bug

i also tried the melding of flesh jewel with 80% max lightning res - and the tooltipp does not change the minus resistance to other resistances.

at the bgeinning i thought its maybe a tool tip bug, but if i activate righteous fire i am instant to 1 health as inquisitor with both consecrated ground ascendancy taken.

so maybe this jewel not work as it explain or there is another mechanic behind people dont understand.

Yap not working

not working, can this get fixed?

running into the same thing where it is lowering the resistance but not capping

same problem here rlly annoying

This jewel allows you to get higher resistance caps across all three elements by investing in just one resistance cap. Example: if you equip Kaltenhalt, your maximum cold resist goes up by 5%, so your resistance caps would be 75/80/75. If you then socket Melding of the Flesh, your resistance caps would be 80/80/80.

This jewel DOES NOT allow you to cap your resistances by investing in only one resistance.

Example:

Let's assunme that before socketing the jewel:
Your resistance caps are 85/80/75
Your uncapped resistances are 100/150/200
Your capped resistances are 85/80/75

If you socket Melding of the Flesh with -80% all elemental resistances:
Your resistance caps will be 85/85//85
Your uncapped resistances will be 20/70/120
Your capped resistances will be 20/70/85


With this jewel you have to invest more into your elemental resistances to stay resistance capped, in exchange for not investing as much in various sources of increased resistance caps.



So, to clarify if this is an actual issue with the jewel: are your elemental resistance caps different with the jewel socketed? Are all of your elemental resistances overcapped with the jewel socketed?

If one of your resistances like fire, is capped at 78%, then the other two will also be capped at 78%

It is NOT BASE on your OVERALL resistances.

For example, if you stack 300% fire resistances, it will still will be 78%. Thats why u will see all three resistances will capped at 78%.

Unless you are using purity aura or shield that gave +3 +4 maximum resistances, the jewel is more to disadvantage compare to advantage.
