I can see your arguement, that having 100% status is OP(which it is), considering the 5 new link skills that give 5% status each can easily put, anyone with 100% status. But its a double sided sword like how you now mentioned that bosses now have the ability to completely ignore statuses with certain skills. The only good thing about having 100% status is seduction protection pretty much. Nexon needs to work a new way how status effects it. Because if you could get seduced while having 100% status, actually having a bishop in the party or paladin, would be very nice
The Cleansing pot isn't a buff pot, so you can use it even if you have the maximum number of buff potions allowed, as an alchemist on my Phantom, I was able to use a resistance potion and a critical potion as well as a cleansing pot to dispell Potential Lock whenever I had to.
Status resistance has a lot of uses at Empress, it's just more convenient when you don't get sent out, or trapped in a tornado, or turned into a pig, or turned into a bomb, or stunned, or have your potentials canceled out, it's pretty much the only boss I care about having 100% status resistance at.
Also, it's not really a double edge sword, having 100% status resistance can't hurt you in any way, the fact that bosses ignore it isn't a problem that arises because you have 100% status resistance. Bosses that ignore stauts resistance pretty much levels the playing field for everyone, except people without Hero's Will, which as I pointed out, has an cooldown too long to really be all that useful. It's also annoying as hell since the bosses that ignore your status resistance have some of the worst effects, like Hard Hilla's cage that can't possibly be broken in time, even if you had a full party of six (which would just make things worse in other ways), so it's pretty much an instant KO (except it's not instant, so it eats up precious time), or potential lock. You can get by some of them, like staying dead until Hard Hilla uses the cage again since it has a fairly long cooldown. You can cleansing pot potential lock, and seduce too, of course, but the cooldown on CPB's seduce and also its Potential Lock is a minute, so he can use it 5 or 6 times by the time you can cleansing pot or Hero's Will again. Oh, and those god damned transformations, I'm pretty sure you can't even Hero's Will out of those, or use a cleansing potion.
