In my last 3 rvr fights, i've been resisted 50%-80% of my spells. Half or more is super not ok. And before someone says something about armor resists, they do NOT, or at least should not, affect resists. They affect damage. I see it in pve too. If it's not blue con to me, I can't land more than 50% of my spells. I don't remember live being like this EVER. So wtf? Is this server including the +resist stuff in the calculation for flat resist? Did you put the numbers in wrong for resists? What? I've played 3 different caster classes on this server already, and they ALL have that problem. I'm just lost as to how that could happen on every caster i've played, and many others i've talked to in-game about it.

As in, if i'm spec 50 in a skill, it doesn't help at all. Or is it by spell? Say I have a 45 spell, i need mof 2 to take the spell itself to 50?

That are the current settings. If its bugged this way then tell us.

Atm i lvl Body Cabby Lv 30 now. While lvling at Giants in Brae with lv 28 very often u have nearly 2-3 resists on 5 casts while using the lv 28 Lifedrain on orange Mobs. With lv 27 i lvled in DF using the lv 23 Lifedrain because u got Lifedrain at 23 and 28, the resist was much higher often an orange con mob resist 4-5 spells in a row. But really frustrating is resist rate of pet spells in Pve my Ruby Pet resist like hell. My personal record is 9! resists on orange Mob. I died because the mob resists 4 spells so he get with 80 percent te me, resisted QC and my Pet lands 2 casts while he defeated me in Melee. Perhaps it was only bad resist?!

In the end ive used up all little things i had up my sleeves and killed it, after something like 25 casts, most of them beeing CCs. No pet no adds, just plain 1vs1. Something like that happens very rare, but it does still happen. I enounter such mobs(usually with 6 to 10 resists) each 1-2 hours of soloxp on yellow/orange mobs. Live with it, or xp in groups. Untill some gm proves the resistsformula beeing wrong, admins wont change anything.

This is true, I remember bombing off low-health mobs was a very viable solution on live, here it's too tricky and mana consuming to keep doing.

And on purp mobs u can have up to 100% resist. its not rare that i nuke 50% mana or more on purp mob to get some spells on him . LG Jack Gekillte Greys von heute, sind die Greykiller von Morgen.

Hum? Dont understand your posting. MoF does help to increase the lvl of a spell below 50. With my lvl49 root i had 4 resist in one fight vs skald.
