Mental Defenseses

How do Mental Defenses translate over to resistance?

For example, if a character showcases and says they have mental defenses then obviously that's baseline resistance. But what if a character says they have five layers of mental defenses instead of just one? Is that still baseline resistance?
 
In a way, yes, it's above baseline and layered.

But ofc, would need extra context and what they mean by layers

It's an MTG thing, Planeswalkers are stated to have Mental Defenses on top of their normal Mental Resistances. Then people like Jace are stated to have multiple layers of defenses that characters need to get through to reach his actual mind. And then you have people like Nicol Bolas who even Jace said had no weaknesses in his defense to even try breakthrough.
