Can someone explain how to read the new style of resistance values?

Example: Cold resistance 2/-

TIA

i think it works this way:

the first number shows you how much damage of a type you can resist (here -2 if the damage is cold based). the second number shows what magical enhancement a weapon (of the enemy) must have to bypass your resistance (here none (can't bypass your resistance))

Hey, I was interested in how this exactly works, too.

So are 2p of (cold) damage substracted from EVERY (cold) damage you would take, or just one time in every round??

I think the damage is absorbed from every attack.

Dave has the right of it. Any time you would recieve cold damage 2 will be subtracted off the top.
