Having played main vs numerous alts repeatedly in ToV - the difference between having and not having resists is pretty damn huge. Having those resists baked into actual high quality gear and not having to swap in relative scrub tier resist gear quite possibly is one of the biggest differences between the high end raid geared vs the rest of folks struggling to get there.
Especially when you’re doing a raid with less than 4 full groups that most people are gonna bring 50-80 people to drop. I’m in <Gravity> … we get the job done without zergs. Having or not having a certain level of resists can absolutely make or break a raid when you don’t have (or need) an extra 20-40 bodies to throw at a target.
From a HP pool standpoint … you gotta remember that velious was first beaten on this server in Kunark gear.
25hp is nothing. If you ONLY buffed out to 4k … that’s 0.6% more or less hp. If you buff out to 6k, 25hp is like 0.4% more. In a vacuum that is less than the tiniest squeaker of a fart in a hurricane.
