Had snare resist 8 or 9 times in a row on an even-con Bull Elephant yesterday. Resists in general seem slightly more frequent than classic. A bit surprised to see folks feeling like resists are less on p99.

I think the issue people have with claiming resists are too low here is that they're talking about blue cons (often LOW blue cons) that have been debuffed. If you throw even a mid-level tash or malo on a mob 6-8 levels below you, it will stay rooted forever, it'll almost never resist any magic-based spell, it'll have a long average charm duration, etc. But they just stretch the fact that a low blue mob with -100 magic resist from tash, malo, and -mr gear isn't too hard to charm and is trivial to CC into "MR resist are too low!!!!!" across the board.

An even con without a debuff will resist the shit out of you for sure.


I've gotten most of the way through 35 today now. 550ish spellcasts total now, and resist rate has climbed a little from the 7.3% earlier. It's more like 9% now. So my 1 in 2500 resist streak really is more like a 1 in 2000 I guess. It has happened yet another time today now though :)

There's a first cast bug with pvp on blue or something.

Big stun or cascading darkness will land on high MR first cast. Not sure how to do it. Great for botb.

Dunno how that might impact pve.

My theory is the server is actively trying to kill me. When things go wrong it seems more things are likely to go wrong until the server is successful and I'm DRT.
