Q u o t e:


Why do resistances have to be based on a colored code?

Whats the point of resistances then.

Q u o t e:
Why can't they just be numerical in nature, as it pertains to a UI?

That would be incredibly dull, vague and confusing.

Q u o t e:
It isn't like they really have a graphical representation in the game as it is.

Take a look at the sorces skill trees. Do you see any blue fire?

Q u o t e:
Where in D2 do you see icons for resists?

You don't see icons because they are logical, everything looks like it's name. Would you like the witch doctor to be a warrior class because it adds variety? It just adds confusion.

Q u o t e:
Where are they color-coded?

In the actual spell.


Q u o t e:
Why does this matter?

Consistancy.
