- This article is about the effect; for the spell, see spell resistance (spell).
Spell resistance (SR) is a special defensive ability. When a spell is cast against a creature with spell resistance, the caster rolls a die (with the modifiers described below). If the roll is less than the the creature's spell resistance, then the spell does not affect that creature. Spell resistance is like armor against magical attacks.
Spell resistance does not stack -- only the highest SR item or spell counts. Spell resistance (other than that from diamond soul) can be temporarily lowered via the spells Mordenkainen's disjunction, greater spell breach, and lesser spell breach.
The roll to beat spell resistance is
- Caster level + 1d20 + spell penetration.
The spell penetration modifier is 2, 4, or 6, for Spell Penetration, Greater Spell Penetration, or Epic Spell Penetration respectively.
The spell resistance from the spell spell resistance is
- Caster level + 12.
The Spell resistance for a monk (from the feat Diamond Soul) is
- Monk level + 10 + improvements.
The improvements modifier is 2 for every Improved Spell Resistance feat taken.
