2) The attack on you was a crit, if you have 400 resilience that means it does 20% less damage.

That's right kids, crits that are lost due to resilience actually do LESS damage than a normal hit.

With 400 resilience: If a normal fireball does 2000 damage, a critical strike fireball does 2400 damage, and a fireball that was made not a crit by resilience only does 1600 damage.

Sexy no? Look for the low damage 'crits' in your combat log. They will be even smaller than you expect.
