Ranger: Twin Takedown with different weapons

[Dr_stalker]

Twin Takedown says "Make two Strikes against your hunted prey, one with each of the required weapons. If both hit the same hunted prey, combine their damage for the purpose of its resistances and weaknesses. Apply your multiple attack penalty to each Strike normally."
How resistances and weaknesses will apply to combined damage for two different weapons with different types of damage? For example, if one of them is a subject of resistances\weaknesses, and another isn't?

[shroudb]

you'd do both types of damage simultaneously.

so, if you attack with a slashing and with a piercing weapon, it would be 1 attack with both slashing and piercing traits.

against a monster that has EITHER slashing or piercing vulnerability 5, as an example, you'd do +5 damage.

against a monster that has slashing resistance and piercing vulnerability you'd do +5-5= +0 damage

and etc

effectively, you switch from doing 8 piercing +8 slashing damage to 16 slashing+piercing damage.

since it's one damage total, you'd only apply the respective resistances/vulnerabilities once.

And if the monster has slashing resistance 5 and piercing resistance 10, you only apply the highest resistance. Sadly, the same ist true for weakness.

You sure about that? I read that resistance to different damage types does stack.

p.453

"If you have more than one type of resistance that
would apply to the same instance of damage, use only the
highest applicable resistance value"

what "stacks" is if you have 2+ instances of damage in your 1 attack.

as an example you attack with a flaming longsword vs a target that has slashing and fire resistances.

then slashing damage will be reduced by the slashing resistance and fire damage by the fire resistance.
