So I have the Festive Legionary Shield and I'm trying out the increase "heal resistance" effect.

I'm testing it against the Hard Bake Oven(It has a regeneration move) boss from the Frostval 2022 Quest, and it doesn't seem to be working?

The boss heals the same amount as it usually does. And I do have the Battle Log on, so I can see exactly what is going on. Is it working for anyone else?

The heal resistance reduction isn't massive, and damage over time effects (like Regen, although of course regen heals) have a wide damage range, so it's very possible it's working properly, and you just don't notice it because of the random variance of the power of the regeneration.

That being said, if you want to do a definitive test to see if the item works, there's an easy way. Lowering healing resistance also lowers monsters' SP regen, and SP regen is the same every turn (almost always). So, if you use the shield, and the SP regen doesn't change, then you know it's not working.

Spoilers, I went ahead and did that test, the shield doesn't seem to actually be reducing healing resistance, at least for the purpose of SP regeneration. It's possible that this is caused by it being a status, and ticking down at the wrong time each turn so that it's never active at the beginning of the monster's turn. Or it's just bugged in another way.

Interesting. Do you have the Bloodthirsty Protean armor? It has a Increase enemy healing Resistance ability, does that work? I'm curious to know if it is the shield or is it the status itself.

I'm testing out the Copperclade Brightblades, and they are definitely working. The boss regeneration points is cut down by at least 200, SP points are also reduced. I only wish it had some sort of status indicator.

I wonder if it is the status itself.
