Cold resist is underrated. Half the druid nukes are cold, shaman nukes are cold, the best pre-Kunark wizard nuke is cold, and the best wizard draught is cold. I'd stack cold resist over fire pre-Kunark where it's really only lava bolt and one half of the druid nuke combo that's fire. Regarding that, I'd rather fully resist Ice to avoid the -50FR debuff that'll make Starfire land hard. Both nukes are otherwise identical. Conflagration does 400 damage in PvP if it lands fully, so if a wizard has to use that spell due to my stacking cold resist, I'm happy with that. Cold resist is easier to stack than fire, too.
