Tashan's useless; against reds, it gets resisted practically
everytime. I'm on a running streak of 12 in a row of Tashan
resists on reds (and still counting).

Tashan itself is almost always resisted
by yellows and red, hence useless against high-powered
MOBs that large groups will tend to want to go after.
Even if it does work, the amount of resistance lowered
isn't that much (maybe 5%).

Yes, the enchanter can't fight worth a damn, their pet is stupid (which isn't always a bad thing) and has very few hitpoints, and their spells are resisted way too often even with Tashan (heck Tashan itself gets resisted too much).

It had its resist modifier changed in the May 24th 1999 patch. In fact there were several changes made to this spell and you may want to check the spdat.eff off the launch CD to get the full original state of these spells.

* Tashan (the entire Enchanter series) is now quicker to cast, costs less mana, and is harder to save against

It is also stacking w/ malo which i believe it shouldn't.

Correct, there is another bug already for it stacking with Malo line. It shouldn't stack until Dec 1999.
