if you were 60s with 255+ resist back then it was easier to resists aoes.
They made the 2002/09/04 patch in that effect, they removed the level part of the equation and replaced it with a minus 150 resist adjust on some of the aoes.
With the 255 resist cap, you had something like ~215 resists after the 6 level difference between you and the dragon in Veeshan's peak. This translates to around 365 resists right now with the current system.
So currently, the dragon aoes are hitting more often than not. Changing This would make it much easier for our current overgeared characters to resists the aoes.
If you want more info on this, look up the resist change patch.
