I realized that I never really use the magic resistance promotions, although they can probably be useful in some situations like when you are facing pyre zombies or cultists.
In my experience the problem is that:
-it's only available with combat 3, so you can't give new units those resistance promotions in most cases
-units have to skip other important promotions in order to be resistant
-it costs too many promotions to have magic resistance for all kinds of magic damage
-it just takes some more attackers/spellcasters with magic damage to deal the full damage to magic resistant defenders
I think it would enhance the diversity of the spell system, if units had easier access to magic resistance promotions, because it would be easier to counter, for example, the enemy's fireballs or maelstorms and thus forcing the enemy to make use of more different spells and their magic damage.
That's why I'd like to see no (or Combat I) requirements for the magic resistance promotion.
Of course, I might be way off and the majority might be fully satisfied with how this works, so I made a poll to see what other ppl think.
What are your suggestions, if you rarely use those promotions?
