the 135 damage attack would be figured aginst your new physical resistance of -100% so 270. Less 130 gives 140
Damage reduced by X suffers very badly against Amp
Actually, it is right. DR/MDR comes before the resistance. Usually, this is considered a bad thing, since it reduces the effectiveness of DR/MDR if you have high resistance. If you have negative resistance, however, this order is a good thing.

Because of its diminishing returns formula, it won't ever reach 75%. At slvl 99 (impossible to reach), it'd still have just 66%. The maximum you can actually reach is lower, but still in the 60s.
