Bindings and resists are terms often found in role-playing games and similar interactive entertainment. Bindings typically refer to negative status effects that prevent a character from moving or taking certain actions. Common examples include paralysis, stun, or root effects, which can leave a player or NPC vulnerable. These effects are often imposed by enemies or environmental hazards.

Resists, on the other hand, are defensive properties that reduce the chance of being affected by negative status effects or mitigate their severity. Characters can have innate resists or acquire them through gear, spells, or skills. For instance, a character might have a high resistance to fire, making them less susceptible to burning damage or a fire-based stun. Similarly, resists can apply to magical or physical afflictions. The interplay between bindings and resists is a core mechanic in many games, requiring players to manage both offensive capabilities to apply debilitating effects and defensive strategies to avoid them. Understanding and strategically utilizing these mechanics is crucial for success in combat and progression through game challenges.
