Spells: Resists dont match up to live

[Dequarius]

I think the whole server really would like an explanation as to why the developers think resists should not be as close to classic as possible.

Are you concerned that casters will somehow become underpowered? Even with the classic resist system, a melee was no match for any caster. There is nothing to worry about in regards to that.

Perhaps we could have some kind of demonstration? Null or another developer could play a lvl 50 rogue with the best gear in classic and duel a naked druid?

I don't mean to sound vindictive, but I think a lot of players are frustrated to find their resist gear so ineffective after spending time and effort accumulating it. Quite curious as to reasoning behind making resists this way.
