Arcane Chorus: What does it do?

[Celebrati]

<DIV>The spell description reads "Increase Arcane mitigation for all group members."  But I am not 100% sure what that means.   Before casting I had the following resistance stats:</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Cold 20</DIV> <DIV>Disease 160</DIV> <DIV>Divine 40</DIV> <DIV>Heat 80</DIV> <DIV>Magic 11</DIV> <DIV>Mental 60</DIV> <DIV>Poison 16</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>And after casting:</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV> <DIV>Cold 20</DIV> <DIV>Disease 160</DIV> <DIV><STRONG><FONT color=#66ff00>Divine 140</FONT></STRONG></DIV> <DIV>Heat 80</DIV> <DIV><STRONG><FONT color=#66ff00>Magic 111</FONT></STRONG></DIV> <DIV><FONT color=#66ff00><STRONG>Mental 160</STRONG></FONT></DIV> <DIV>Poison 16</DIV></DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Pretty nice!  I am wondering if it does anything for the mages in the group, offensively.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Xeather Xeart</DIV> <DIV>Lucan D'Lere</DIV> <DIV> </DIV>

This works like AC except for spells - the higher the number, the less damage you'll take from that particular type. Unless you're going into a fight against spell casters (and even then) you're better off with your normal stat and offensive buffs.
