Just finished a raid in Pofire, killed Druav, Babnoxious and Pyronis resists on cold was terribly high.

Out of 14 casts of Winter's Frost I got 9 straight resists and 5 partials all but 2 under the 1k mark and I have Fury of Eci as a focus effect. Mobs were debuffed too, I had heard a change of resists due to the GoD release but this seems like a harash level of resistance.

However MR based spells landed as they did before, using Karana's Rage on a raid though for dps seems a little crazy. Note it was only on the boss mobs, resists on regular mobs seemed normal.

Anyone else have this problem?

Oh and limited debuff slots on mobs too, dots were removing debuffs first of all thought someone was annuling the mobs.

Well now I am really confused :(

We killed birds too tho, they popped whilst we were buffing. Will have to see what happens next time we are there.

are you debuffing with E'ci's first?

I noticed cold resists were insane in fire tonight. Blazzax is near immune. Landing E'ci's is nigh impossible, even with malos on. Arch Mage was too, I critted for 400... and then landed a nuke for 700... got resisted.... gave up on nuking and just went to DOT's.
Was too busy curing during spider to nuke.

Pretty random it seems. I had nights where eci/WF get chain resisted. Other times I land all my nukes and get summoned. :p

If you are having trouble sticking Eci then shout at your bards. Once they fire up their debuff it lands much more easily... and once on, your cold nuking problems should (excepting a bad run of random rolls) go away in Fire.

On 3 raids recently I've gotten a message that Eci won't hold on your target. Any idea what is causing this conflict?

I had guessed it was a bard song, but if you're saying we should be able to land Eci anyway, that seems to not be it.

I've gotten the won;t hold message for e'cis when I solo'd mobs. I normally kill my DC'd spider before i leave the zone so no funky aggro makes it go after people who kited through wher ei was killing. Every time for the last month or so, e'ci won't hold.

Never bothered with nuke's in POFIRE, Eci's would NEVER land for me, and when i did nuke it was Very partial, Low hits or total Resist, Decided to Just stack a massive ammount of dots each fight (VoT, SD, WD etc), Pretty sufficiant DPS.

been collecting saps and had very little resist problems in the first and second fields where i solo, nor on raids therein, either. by resist problems i mean no more than usual, which is to say mayhaps one in 3 e'ci and one in 20 blasts.

/cackles!

Seems it was a fluke night for us, have raid a few times since in PoFire and resists are back to normal.

That one night though was absolutely horrid.
