[ORE] Re: (ORE) Question on Immunity

Immunity does, indeed, give 'full' protection against whatever it is
that you are immune to, whether it is a Non-Physical Attack Quality or
an enviromental condition. It doesn't have a Defends Quality, and as
such it cannot provide Gobble dice or armor. It doesn't protect at all
against an attack pool that doesn't have non-physical.
Yes, it's powerful, but remember that it only protects against a
single effect. Compare Light Armor: 2Hd is enough to reduce an attack
that does only Shock damage to a single point, regardless if the
attack does 2 or 20 points.

Invulnerability is a different beast; it basically combines Light and
Heavy Armor and a broad scope Immunity to hazardous enviroments.
