Amplify Damage Against Immune Monsters
Amplify Damage lowers physical resistance by 100% at every level. Against a physical immune monster (100% or more) only a fifth of it applies, -20%, so Amplify Damage breaks physical immunity up to 119%. Once a Sunder Charm has broken the immunity, the full -100% applies, where Conviction and Lower Resist stay at a fifth (the game's states.txt marks the curse sunderfull).
