make sure you are keeping an eye on it. it only gives 50% resistance according to the description. i have never paid attention ot it since anything that could drain my end is dead before it even gets a chance. and i do not believe that it will show in combat attributes either. but i have never looked there either.

It shows 0% in combat attributes and the feeling I get from fighting some Mu is it is doing exactly that: 0%!

Well, it should show in combat attributes. Other temporary resistances do, like the toxic resistance from Healing Flames and the immobilize protection from Burn.

I checked this last night when I saw this thread, and it certainly does not show any changes in the Combat Attributes at all. There are a number of things the Combat Attributes actually don't display correctly, so it's possible this may be one of them, but I didn't get a chance to test if the Recovery Resistance was actually working behind the scenes. |

Both the Brute and Controller versions act the same way.
I looked for this last night on a Fire Tanker and I must confess I'm not sure where, or even if, Recovery Resistance would appear in the Combat Attributes listing. I didn't know where to look and I pored over the listings but did not see it. Does anything else show Recovery Resistance in Combat Attributes? If so, where is it?
Is it possible Recovery Resistance simply isn't displayed among the Combat Attributes?

Is it recovery resistance it grants? Based on the in-game power info, it looks to me like it grants end drain resistance, which is slightly different.

Recovery Resistance is listed in the Debuff Resistance section, and does seem to display normally for powers such as [Resist Energies] that do have Recovery Resistance.|

It's a shame it doesn't affect recovery. I had later tested it and malta could not drain me when I hit but a few with Consume, but things like the Mu I fought (when I was scratching my head wondering what was going on) would zero out my recovery and that would bring me down very very fast.
...please can we get recovery resistance added Devs?
At least for Brutes anyway! I don't have other Fire characters to test it on.
It doesn't give the recovery resistance. It shows it in the power description, it lingers for 2 minutes in your active powers in a way that suggests it should be doing what it writes, but it gives nothing.
