Having soloed 33 to almost 38 so far as a necro the rundown is like this. Maybe 1 resist per mob, snare/Fear/DoT equally. Then one out of 10-12 mobs, doesn't matter if it is a succulent or cocatrice, or tiger or rhino, about 1 out of 10-12 mobs will resist everything. I will literally burn an entire bar of mana trying to fear or snare or land a dot, and just simply cannot. I have counted upwards of 13 resists in a row, frequently these mobs are in the average or 7-10 resists depending on what I try to cast on them. BTW I am only reffering to blue con mobs.

The pseudo-random number generator here on p99 is very "special". Streaks of silliness, both good and bad, happen with amazing frequency. This helps tradeskillers, if you're ready for it can get string of skill-ups with successes at expensive low odds combines. It totally sucks trying to solo a class like Warrior, the fight you win with that lucky streak of crips is worth only a tiny fraction of the XP you lose on the fight where you stop hitting the mob when it's at 40% and you go from 90% to dead with nothing but red for melee spam. Likewise, given the low chance of a fizzle on any given cast, the frequency with which you get 2, 3, or even more consecutive fizzles is absurd.
As for resists, overall it seems v similar to what I remember of live. Vs. high blues it's risky to rely on root, vs. even/yellow the risk becomes severe. If you must rely on root, either restrict yourself to low blues or bring an enchanter buddy to tash the mobs.
