Default Resist issue since patch thread

Figured since people have only been posting issues about specific spells or spell types so far, we might as well make a thread to list any "odd" things that seem to be happening with resists since the patch.

That is a thread from server chat where, among other things, a 60 ranger comments about green-con mobs nuking him even worse than they have before and a 30 necro gets a LIFETAP resisted by a level 8 mob. Definitely seems like something goofy is happening! Although, when I first saw a word breathed about a root change, I hopped on Tecmos in HS east and tashed a level 51 mob and fettered it... and fetter lasted the entire 3-minute duration for 2 roots in a row so I figured there must not have been a significant change (prior to the patch a tashed level 51 would basically NEVER break a root from a level 60 PC except from direct spell damage).

The 20th lifetap was a resist.

I had PE break 5 times, though I'm pretty sure none of them were "random" breaks but rather were all because of a DD spell landing. 5 PE breaks out of 20 lifetap casts seems appropriate if ANY direct damage is supposed to give an equal chance to break, but seems very high if the amount of damage being done is supposed to factor into the root break chance at all. I know it was only 20 casts, but like the level 30 necro said in the other thread, lifetap should literally never resist except on deep red cons.

29 casts, 4 resists, 1 instant break, and the one time I cast a root without another one right after it, right there at the end, that root wore off early too. I didn't tash, and previous to the patch a level 50 WOULD resist some non-mez MR spells (or break root early without damage) without tash, so I'm not sure if I can make any statement based on this small sample.

All I gathered from this was that you LOVE to spam. "You haven't recovered yet..." X 100.

But really resists as far as mobs casting on you go, for green mobs, has been off for quite some time. Level 60s should basically be immune to level 1-35ish mobs casts. Level 35-45ish mobs should be pretty hit or miss and always partials when they hit. All of that is purely based off level differential, resists are sort of irrelevant at that point in time.

I had a root break 5-10s in on Peg Leg (level 15) yesterday. It was after I melee'd (no nuke)... So maybe it got messed up and counted a melee as a nuke and broke cause of that. Or maybe it's breaking early on mobs that shouldn't have a chance in hell at breaking early. Id need to test more.

I do love to spam casting keys. Leftover from WoW raiding days I'm afraid. I even tried to stop being a spaz for the root spam and I still got those messages several times, lol [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

I do remember getting nuked a lot by green mobs back in 2000.

Also, root spells were breaking early a majority of the time, even on greens. A lot of people just kept using root instead of the higher versions because it would only last a few ticks anyway.

I haven't tested on mobs past level 35, but I am now getting snare and dot resists on mobs level 35 and below. It seems like it's not super often (maybe 1 in 20-30 casts), but prior to the patch, I never ever got resists on mobs that were blue or green.

Not sure mobs 25 or more levels below should be able to resist my songs?

Classic EQ used to have a resist floor, which was a minimum resist % chance, regardless of level difference. So level 1 mobs could resist Ice comet.

This was removed later on but during Luclin in mid 2002.

I haven't noticed any abnormalities on spells that I cast being resisted. Mobs vs me however, have always been able to land easily. Greens land nukes for full quite often. No idea if this is classic.

Are you sure that iron guardian isn't supposed to be resisting that much? Like how city guards are extra resistant. He is a guard pretty much.

Root has been broken on this server for a very long time. It was way too good. Those early breaks are far closer to classic than it was before the patch.
