Plague Resistance rune feels very underwhelming, am I misunderstanding something?

Mathematically, what you are seeing is the exact opposite of diminishing returns

You’re right! I mixed up the nerfs from Patch 1 with general diminishing returns.

From my testing, nothing. I compared buildup, decay, DoT strength. Buildup was slightly slower, but that’s likely because buildup scales with damage. It’s just a piddly amount of resistances.

Thanks for the additional testing.

If the rune has always been meh, then it’s indeed a problem for newer EA players. I have created a feedback post to talk about it.
