Old Vet Returned - WTF is up with all the spell resists?

[kevoh]

I think you guys got something wrong with spell resists. Honestly...

This is absurd. I just started playing and everything is being resisted. Roots dropping off after 1 tick. Really making for a not so "Classic" experience.

Resist got changed recently. Before they were too low (as in root was godly), now they seem too high.

I played a druid through a good chunk of classic so I did a lot of snaring (running behavior/speed seems markedly reduced here too). Blues are resisting snare far more than they ever did back then. The vast majority I would be able to snare in 2 casts. Here it's taking 3-4 unreasonably often since the change.

ok good i just wanted to make sure i wasnt crazy. the resist level is out of this world though!

Target low dark blues (i.e. close to green) instead of high dark blues and you should be OK. There will be some resists but not a ton.
