    Title: Sorcery warding does not work.
    Reproduction Rate: 100%
    Blocker? No.
    Details: Items socketed with sorcery warding gems and jewels have no effect on fire damage.
    Steps to Reproduce: See the details below.
    User Specs:
    OS: Linux 4.16 unknown 64bit
    CPU: AMD Ryzen 7 1700 Eight-Core Processor (16) System RAM: 32158
    GPU: GeForce GTX 1070/PCIe/SSE2 GPU RAM: 8192
    SotA.Linux.64.773.Date.05.01.18
    Area: Novia_R6_Volcanic01_02
    Area Display Name: Oracle Colossus
    Loc: (106.1, 164.6, -355.0)
    Debug: Tm92aWFfUjZfVm9sY2FuaWMwMV8wMnx8KDEwNi4xNDMsIDE2NC41NTgsIC0zNTQuOTk3KXwoMCwgMC4yNSwgMCwgMC45NjgpfDI4Ljk3ODc1fDEwfDcuODA1ODY=

    I used the puzzle at the entrance to Oracle Colossus in order to test this because I could reliably get 5 high-damage fire DOTs each time I activated it. I activated the fire damage 10 times for each condition below.

    Using no buffs or sorcery warding gear, I received an average of 50.66 points of damage for each DOT. Here are the log entries:

    Using sorcery warding gems for my bow and chest and sorcery warding jewels for my amulet and ring (+90 fire resist and -30 fire attunement for an effective +75 resist) I received an average of 52.66 points of damage for each DOT (~3.9% increase). Here are the log entries:

    For comparison, this time I used Douse to get it's +20 fire resist bonus and no sorcery warding items. This produced an average of 39.84 points of damage for each DOT (~21% decrease). Here are the log entries:

    It's clear that Douse has some benefit where sorcery warding items have none (or a bit of detriment due to the decrease in attunement). I should see a clear benefit from the effective +75 fire resist from the sorcery warding items.

    Is this one of those issues that's just being ignored?

    I blame @Sara Dreygon for being too imba. Clearly that's the reason riposte, fortify defense, and resists all don't work (+ anything else I missed, clearly his fault too!). They're still working in their kobold factory trying to figure out a way to make him like the rest of us! :p

    Thanks for testing this one @Barugon - Was looking up ways to not be so extra well done from fire damage.

    Is this limited to gemming for sorcery added resist or does it include potions (I don't have any phoenix things to test this one on) as well?

    Sorcery warding and Douse are the only things I tested.

    I don't know if hazard damage like camp fires and traps are different than player and NPC damage, but fire ward stones have never worked on hazard damage.

    Well, they also don't seem to do anything against fire magic either.
