I ran tests to see how many times i could chop in a row with a charged faust, heat level 10, without getting cursed.
The first twelve I ran wearing a seraphic helm, a 4* item with curse ressistance, heat level 10.
The last twelve I ran using my spiral stallet, with obviously no curse ressistance.
I averaged each 12 sets, and with the curse ressistance, I could chop an average 4.50 times in a row. Without Curse resistance, I could chop an average of 4.41666... (repeating 6) times in a row. So having 1 curse resistant item only makes you able to chop less than 0.1 times more often without being cursed.
I'm assuming I just got lucky with the helmet, and that curse ressistance dosen't protect you from faust at all. Any thoughts?
