Dragon Disciple resistance stacking

[X2Brute]

the main bulk of the dragon disciple dedication is resistance to your energy type, but half the access options also give resist. does that make it mostly worthless for spellscale kobolds, and higher lvl barbarians? or do they stack somehow

My understanding is only the higher resistance counts, but its complex.

There is no requirement for you to take the same resistance type for every case. That only applies to draconic sorcerers.
So a kobold with fire resistance from their ancestry, could get cold resistance from draconic barbarian, and electrical resistance from the dragon disciple.

I've begun treating DD as an option made for non-sorcerers and barbarians. Pretty sure I'll treat it like a common archetype.

I was mostly just wanting a way to give my kobold dragon wings :/

My current character concept is an aasimar kobold, and I'm picking up the aasimar wings. Since his forebear was a angelic silver dragon, his wings look like dragon wings.
