Karathrax, I think I understand the content of the three paragraphs of your reply, but I don't fully grasp its connection to this query :

"Is a 100% resistance to a debilitation (conferred by worn armor) a foolproof guarantee that one can never become inflicted with that debilitation ever again (while still wearing said debilitation-proof armor) ? "

Anecdotal example : It's possible I've been VERY lucky, but in the past three months I've been grinding the Rotunda of Dread to level cap my third alt. En route to Level 200, this Arisen slew 32 Evil Eyes and 58 Cockatrices while wearing armor that granted 100% resistance to Blind, Torpor, and Petrification, respectively (Ancient Circlet/Bangles/Greaves). This Arisen was NEVER inflicted by any of those three debilitations during 90 engagements with Evil Eyes and Cockatrices. Even Goldforged Ancient Armor has relatively weak physical defensive stats, but I can vividly remember staring straight into the Evil Eye's eyeball while it tried to Blind/Torpor/Petrify me to no avail and I just laughed like Ming the Merciless.

I'm willing to believe that it's possible that some players get debilitated when they're supposed to have 100% resistance, but it is occurrence I have yet to experience. And I would find it INCREDIBLY misleading on the part of the game's programmers. 100% is a mathematical absolute, synonymous with "complete", "total", "unqualified", and "perfect" !
