Our swarm line has been lowered 100 points along with WoN.

Hopefully this will bring them back in line to what they used to be.

Sounds like step in right direction. But they seem to be bringing most DoT's down by the same -100 resist, from a base of 0. Including at least necro/cleric dots from the few I scanned. I'm not sure, but I think the lure style spells are closer to -300 atm (I'll check and edit if way off). If they wanna put WD and our other near lure DoTs back to similar resist level, they probably gotta put them around -200 or -250. /shrug

Lets see what -100 does first.

I sure have noticed a difference. First day after patch I had back to back fights with two reisists on WD.

I think as part of the "balancing" to allow dots to stack was to make Winged Death line just as resistable as any other magic dot. Notice that all magic based dots are being lowered to the same amount of negative 100, when WD used to be clearly less resisted than other magic ones. Seems like whenever druids are "upgraded" its only a half-**** type of upgrade. Yes, everyone can stack WD on the raid, but dont be suprised to get at least 1-2 resists per uber mob when there used to be none.

They rewamped the whole ressist system last patch, that includes changing all the spell info, so probably just a glitch on the near unressistable spells, if you take a close look all the necro spells with low ressists are getting that -100 thing also, so i doubt the "nerf" was intended.

Swarm line, as much as we like it to be, isnt the only line of dots thats near unressistable, splurt, and all of the boil blood(?) line share share the same attribute as winged death - they almost never get ressisted.
