(I added a mechanics and interactions subject. I tried to define the important unique modifier bonus in clear language. I added an explanation for damage type still being the same, but only damage numbers changing, because this can be confusing to new players. I added an explanation for new damage scaling options opening up with this unique. I could only imagine 2 possibilities, but I left a note stating that the list might not include all possibilities.)
'''The Admiral''' is a [[unique]] {{il|Varnished Coat}}.
'''The Admiral''' is a [[unique]] {{il|Varnished Coat}}.
==Mechanics and Interactions==
All [[fire]], [[cold]] and [[lightning]] damage from [[hits]] will use the lowest of all 3 elemental resistances on the monster for damage calculations. The damage type does not change.
The admiral opens up multiple options for damage scaling from [[hits]] with multiple elemental [[damage type]]s. (These examples may not include all possibilities)
*'''Option 1''' - Focus lowering one single resistance of your choice. It is generally easier and more powerful to lower 1 enemy resistance. Most enemies have the same base elemental resistances and therefore option 1 will do more damage against more enemies than option 2.
*'''Option 2''' - Focus on lowering all of the monsters elemental resistances. Some enemies like devourers, have base resistances of 75% cold and 0% all other elemental resists. Due to the high variance in resistances (75% or higher) , monsters like these would almost always take more damage from option 2.
