Spells: Post Resist Specifics Here!

[twolo]

Ok just died.
Me-35
Ghosts-35

I tested lower level spells and they are the same.
Clinging Darkness Lvl 4 spell-50% Resists
Spook the Dead Lvl 12 spell-50% Resists this spell was even worst as it only lasted for like 5 seconds and was the reason I died.
Vamp curse-still good.

[Glorindale]

How are mob resists? high
What level were the mobs? 22-26
What level were you? 28
What spell did you cast? Entrall, Root, Whirl till you hurl

Started using Tashani before casting Whirl and that helped.

Resists are erratic, cannot land root.

guard fredrick in North Karana, he's blue to me.

I am a 31 wizard

I'm casting Bonds of force (AE Snare lvl 29) and Inferno shock (also lvl 29) and Enstill (lvl 20)


Enstill almost never works, less than half the time.
Nuke usually works, but can get resisted thee or four times in a row.
AE Snare lands pretty well.
Real problem is the nuke being interrupted, it seems to happen about a third of the time i try to cast.
I have been chased out of the zone a number of times by this blue NPC because i cannot land root, even for a few seconds.

How are mob resists? Seemed high.
What level were the mobs? 30-31? (NK Guards on bridge to sk)
What level were you? 30
What spell did you cast? Dooming darkness for start ended up feigning 2x before landing the snare then proceeded to Vampiric Curse resist 3x got it off.

I've noticed the same thing with Paw Ent gnolls - they are DB having trouble with Dooming Darkness landing sometimes on them. I've failed twice in a row before, just doesn't seem normal. It's the same Vampiric Curse - "Uthgaard" did acknowledge this



"I missed vampiric curse with making the rest of the lifetaps only resist outside of the level limit, that one's an easy fix."

just putting it down again [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Here a screenshot of what I typically run into this hasn't been uncommon

Guard Weslyn Dark Blue

31 necromancer

Dooming darkness x 4 resist

I would've cast fear more but was oom. I also understand you(Uthgaard) have an idea of what the underlying problem is, I'm just posting more info [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Looking great so far, thanks for keeping it polite and on topic.

It looks like the majority of the issues are with mid to low level spells on mid level npcs, I'm not seeing as many reports higher than that, as the resist adjustments on spells decline with higher level spells.

I realize these arent often used in xp groups or while soloing, but how do resists seem once resist debuffs have been applied? Are they making an significant impact?

How are resists above 40, and at the raid level?

[Zeelot]

The only issue I've had so far raiding is getting a Harm Touch resist on a dark blue Cleric of Innoruuk. Standard Harm touch was indeed resistable, but generally only with higher level mobs with high MR.

How were the resists? BAD
What level were the mobs? 35
What level were you? 35
What spell did you cast?
Dooming Darkness- ~60% resists.
Venom of the Snake- 100% resists.
Panic Undead- ~50% resists.
Vampiric Curse- No resists.
Hungry Earth- ~50% resists.

This was only after 3 ghosts kills. The fourth one almost killed me because I couldn't stick anything on her. I know poison spells are highly resisted but I did not try Scent of Shadow to see if it would affect it. However I grouped with an enchanter yesterday and he was using Tashan and I did not notice a difference in lowered resists. A 39 Mage took over after me and he reported no unusual resists rates with his lvl 1 nuke. Maybe I will use some lower level spells to see if they have issues.

Same as the previous poster --

Paineel Ghosts

Resists? On average 1-2 per mob between dooming darkness and panic undead
What level were the mobs? 35
What level were you? 38
What spells were you using?

Panic the Dead -- I only logged the very end of my play session, but me (a level 38 necro) on level 35 mobs without any special magic resistsnace:

Panic the Dead was resisted 6 times out of 11 casts (55% resist rate)
Dooming Darkness was resisted 3 times out of 9 casts (33% resist rate)
Spirit Tap was not resisted at all out of 15 casts

^these were on mobs 3 levels below me with fairly unremarkable MR before the patch (I could stick spells on them at a higher rate than this when they were even/yellow cons). It's crazy -- I have to feign 1-2 times/fight versus DB mobs 3 levels below me at the moment.

Let me know if I can provide any more info, devs. Thank you for your hard work!

Feerrott spectres:

How are mob resists? Feels like at least 50%.
What level were the mobs? 34-37
What level were you? 38
What spell did you cast? Instill, Tagar's Insects Scourge, Envenomed Breath, all get resisted a ton of times. To the point that sometimes it takes me a full mana bar to kill one dark blue mob, and it's often even a close call when root gets resisted 4 times in a row (not uncommon)
