What about the order of those skills with lower-resistance effect?
Let me use an example:
1) A monster is lighting immune with lightning resistance 100%
2) It's now under level 15 Lower Resist with -60% all resistance and level 25 Conviction with -150% all resistance.
What's the result? Which one is the first to take the 20% penalty?
If Lower Resist is the first, then monster's lightning resist will be 100%-60%*20%-150% = -62%
If Conviction is the first, then monster's lightning resist will be 100%-150%*20%-60% = 10%
As you could see, the order does matter in the cases of immunities.
