Resolve is a Mitigation Rating that is representative of an Entity's ability to deflect mental and social harm.
Resolve reduces any Stress Damage received by the total Resolve of the Entity.
Characters have a base Resolve of 0. Additional Resolve can be gained from sources such as Racial Abilities, Masteries and Items.
Please Note: As per Universal Rule #4 Resolve, provided by differently named sources, does Stack.
Example: Johnny Tutorial has some Fly Duds Equipped giving him 2 Resolve. His Fly Duds are also Modded with Drippy Plating for an additional 1 Resolve for a total of 3.
Example 2 Johnny is Successfully Barbed by a ganger, who deals 7 Stress Damage. Before it is assigned to Johnny's Strain, it is Mitigated first. Johnny has 3 Resolve which Mitigates 3 of this Stress Damage reducing the total he would receive to his strain to 4.
