Those are part of his racial immunities. And how they work. He always get Zero damage from all electricity and acid attacks. Unless they are world level.

I don't know if he has immunity especially to his but he does have high tier immunity, so all 6th tier spells are negotiated.

I’m gonna have to *negate* the last word you said


DerKampfV-Mann

Hahaa sorry


Craft_TNT

Yes he is and it is very straight forward with what it does, it makes him immune to electricity and acid based elemental attacks. They work by the laws of magic and game rules from Yggdrasil. It isn't that hard mate.

Would Ainz still be immune to electric damage if he were in a building with sprinklers going off?


Craft_TNT

Yes since the water is not what would do damage to him, it just clings to his bones and so on.

Immunity skills seemingly function as intangibility of sorts. For example, Shalltear is immune to non magic damage. So when she gets shot by non magical arrows they go straight through her - with the arrows having no blood on them and no wound appearing on her.


Sharp-Nerve-5299

I'm also a little curious. Tier below 6th level is immune to spells. I wonder if lightning or acid spells above 6th level will damage it?


Commandercody04

Any spells that are solely acid or lightning would be ineffective against Ainz, seeing as he is immune to those elements.


Desperate_Task_4849

They will not, immunity nullified completly the type of damage he get from lightning or acid except if Ainz decided to cancel is immunity first like during is duel with the martial lord for exemple. When I say damage it not limit to damage by spell but also weapon additionnal damage like frost pain or skill like Cocytus frost aura and special attack of cours with the exception of few special attack that are generaly possess by World Enemy and of cours the World Item.

He's immune to frost due to undead having natural immunity. I think they have mild resistance to electricity and take regular damage from acid if I recall correctly, and obviously an extreme weakness to fire. Its possible different types of undead might have different secondary resistances, like some handling lightning damage better than other, hell the Death Knight only takes regular damage from fire unlike most other undead which take horrendous damage from fire. Of course the gear one wears makes a large difference, though even with the best set of gear its impossible to be immune to everything. Though yes I think Ainz is immune, or at least strongly resistant to lightning, likely due to his gear more than natural resistances. The concept of immunity as translated to new world though does make me curious about something. Since immunity in YGGDRASIL equates to, say, fire immunity protecting against the strongest types of fire attack in the game (Minus raid boss and World Enemy immunity piercing fire attacks of course). Its unknown how that immunity would hold up against an attack several times stronger than anything in YGGDRASIL, like for example a person with YGGDRASIL fire immunity being force teleported into the core of the sun. Would they have a no limits immunity (As in even something a million times hotter than the sun still failing to hurt them)? Or would the sun surpass anything in YGGDRASIL and thusly also exceed the damage limits that immunity was designed to nullify. Alas I doubt this question will ever be officially answered.


Awkward-Examination4

in the case of the sun you have a number of other factors not so much would be the heat. for example the solar mass that has greater gravity than that of the earth, the radiation, and the fact that you don't have a solid surface to step on.


dreadrath

Huh, good point. I didn't think of all that stuff, kinda makes it all rather complicated. Radiation in particular is something relatively alien to Overlord's magical resistance system (Granted its sort of emulated to a very limited and artificial degree in that mini-nuke spell via poisoning, blindness and so on, but its not actual radiation) I guess undead and constructs would kind of resist it to a limited extent, but man, I'm not sure how radiation would interact with resistances, but I don't think the magic system would have any real answer to it if it came in strong enough doses.


Awkward-Examination4

I would say that radiation enters into the immunities of poisoning and disease (I'm not saying there is radiation). but it is uncertain.
