experiment with
elemental resistance
i lvled up and went to look for all mobs in vic and ossy that uses
magic attacks. i provoke them, let them attack me a few times,
estimate the average damage, and jot them down. after that, i up
one point in to elemental resistance, which provides 12% defense,
and do the same all over again. this way, i get to know which
attacks are "element-based", which ones aren't.
please remember that magic defense differs from char to char, so do
not jump into a crowd of magic mobs and expect same damage with
mine.
oh one more thing. the elements are just my guesses, so if you find
anything wrong might as well reply here

nice huh? but i guess it's only useful for fire/poison mages -
priests have dispell
Earthquake attacks are physical, which includes Yeti, Dark Yeti,
Yeti and Pepe, Dark Yeti and Pepe, Cerebes, Mushmum, and King
Slime's attack. I think banana throws and nependeaths' spits are
physical too. The skill Invincible should be able to reduce these
damages. I think I left out Jr Effy (firebomb)'s special attack,
though.
