Enchants armor of all elves, so it decreases magic damage they gain.
Researchable at Elven craftsman.
Has 3 tiers.
Each tier decreases magic damage by 20%.
4/6/8 turns to research.

I suggest this upgrade because Fireball damage is worst nightmare for elves.

This upgrade can affect only those creatures, who affected by elven armor upgrades and each tier of this upgrade need both previous tier and same tier of elven armor upgrade.

Wait,doesn't spell resistance work that way?

Nope. it only gives chance not to be affected by enemy's non-damaging spell.
For example slowness/curse/fear/disarmor.
But Magic Missle spell, Firball, Fire breath, thunder Storm will do to them full 10 hp damage.
But when 90% of your army has around 10 hp (10/11/12/14) 2 Fireballs will just kill all.

The low amount of base hitpoints an average elven soldier has makes them extremely vulnerable to every offensive spell ever thought of.
Elves need a defense against offensive spells.
They become more deadly when they are given to fast cavalry units, such as the drake knight and the death knight.

I think we need to implement the damage and resistance types.

There is a topic on that subject.

Could you give a link here to that topic?

I think this is ANSWERED.
