Question on Temperature-Based Spell Fatigue

[Aikamun]

Greetings all,

I am creating a human pretender for Jotunheim and changing the temperature scale to Cold 3.
Will his spell fatigue be based on being:
a) Human (neutral temp scale)
b) Jotunheim preferred scale of Cold 2
c) Cold 3

The description for "Cold Resistant" says it reduces cold damage by 100%. Would this also reduce melee and spell fatigue if fighting outside of his preferred temperature scale?

Thanks as usual,
Aikamun

I'm still somewhat new to this game, so please don't take what I say as gospel. As best I understand, the answer to your first question is "b". It would be "c" if you selected the Niflheim variant.

Heat/cold resist means that units on the battlefield ignore the damage/fatigue effects of enemies with auras, and of spells. I do not know if it also applies to "external" forces such as province scales.

I believe fire/cold resistance negates the fatigue penalties for heat and cold respectively, since I noticed that a unit which normally suffered increased fatigue for heat/cold no longer suffered this penalty when wielding a heat/cold resist item.
