First order of business is resistance additions to the Ubersreik Five:

The Ubersreik 5 (Markus Kruber, Bardin Goreksson, Victor Saltzpyre, and Sienna Fuegonasus) should have the following:

Resistance to Poison, Matter Manipulation, and limited Resistances to Aethyr Manipulation (Dhar; Can traverse the Chaos Wastes with little difficulty, where Aethyr flows wildly and induces Corruption, Mutation, Madness, and Soul Manipulation)

Justification for Poison resistance is the Ubersreik V's uncanny ability to survive Warpstone gas and various other Warpstone related poisoning. Warpstone normally is incredibly toxic, and can melt the lungs of normal people. This gas in particular can kill Skaven, who have an innate resistance to it, so the Ubersreik V's ability to shrug it off should be added as a resistance.

[1]



Justification for Matter Manipulation and Dhar resistance, is that in the most recent content of Vermintide 2, the Ubersreik V traverse deep into the Chaos Wastes to search for the Citadel of Eternity. The Chaos Wastes are a plane where Aethyr flows freely, and is deeply corrupted by Chaos, passively breaking mortals who dare traverse it. As seen through the clips, the Chaos Wastes break down reality and form strange amalgamations of the physical world.

Proof for resistance to Mutation, Corruption, and Dhar

Proof for resistance to Madness (Type 2, possibly Type 3), Mind Manipulation, Transmutation

Second, ability additions for Nagash's Incarnate of Shysh key:

Nagash has Immortality Negation (Type 5 and 8) and Regeneration Negation (Mid-Godly) through his absorption of Valaya and Usurian, bypassing their immortalities and regeneration. This is in his second key but should be put on his third key due to these feats being done when he became an Incarnate, alongside the addition of Immortality Negation (Type 9) through absorbing Valaya's transcendental self.

Summary

Ubersreik V gets these added resistances: Resistance to Poison, Matter Manipulation, and limited Resistances to Aethyr Manipulation (Dhar; Can traverse the Chaos Wastes with little difficulty, where Aethyr flows wildly and induces Corruption, Mutation, Madness, and Soul Manipulation)

Nagash's Immortality Negation and Regeneration Negation get moved to his third key (Incarnate of Shysh) alongside the addition of negation of Type 9 Immortality
