Good morning

I’m trying to redo my template and have stumbled on two Artifact specifics which I'm not sure about:

1. Cloudsong
Ability 2 is described on VoS as follows:
“Arcane Leadership: Target has improved spell range and ability to penetrate spell resists while within range of this aura.”
A player on VN mentioned that the range stacks with any +spell range from other items, even if it's capped at 10%.
Can anyone confirm this? Is it the same for the pierce resist? Thus: Can I have 15 spell range and 15 pierce resist when the aura is up (e.g. 2x5% passive pr from erinys and jacinas plus 5% active from CS/CoZ)?

2. Crocodile Tear Ring
I found the following remark on a template on VN: “Croc's Ring resist NOT included”
Yet the poster listed the item as follows:

Left Ring
Name: Croc Tear Ring
Level: 51 Quality:
Bonus:
Effect 1: 15 Intelligence
Effect 2: 4 Body
Effect 3: 4 Cold
Effect 4: 4 Heat
Effect 5: 4 Energy
Effect 6: 4 Matter
Effect 7: Empty
Effect 8: Empty
Effect 9: Empty
Effect 10: Empty
Utility: 50.00

Those values had been calculated into his resists. Other players talk about “CTR modified resists”. I could not find any mention of any modificator on VoS, can anyone please explain the mechanics of the CTR resists?

Thank you in advance.

The croc ring has an ability that makes 5% of the damage turn into pow and end instead. Thus ppl are saying you get another 5% "resists"

Conversion: 5% of all damage dealt (to you) heals your power and endurance instead

Edit: The cloudsong extra range does not go over 10% spell range iirc. Atleast I didnt notice any extra range when I tested it.

5% Range doesn't add on if you already have range capped.

The 5% Magic damage will add on if you only have 5% magic damage or 5% resist pierce. However it will only last 10 minutes :\

The 5% damage convertion on the croc ring is calculated on the damage you resive after primary resists is taken away from initial damage, so it kinda becomes like a hidden secondary 5% resists to all damage done to you.

I'll admit I haven't verified the results personally, but recent tests prove that the +5% peirce on Cloudsong/Zahur chant doesn't stack but the +5% range does so that you can acheive 15% range.

and by saying that you also agree on running a ml2 raid soon Xest

nm, just saw it was a ML1-10 on saturday so you dont have to!

Thanks for the replys and explanations guys.
