I needed a quest piece from Sol A today. I didn't buff my resists as I didn't think I would need to. I did not run into any trouble, but I was surprised by how easy it was for a green to nuke me. I'm level 50 and an 'inferno goblin wizard' which Alla's lists as level 26-27 was able to nuke me like:

'You feel your skin freeze over. You have taken 127 points of damage.'
'You are engulfed by lightning. You have taken 120 points of damage.'
'You feel your skin freeze over. You have taken 96 points of damage.'
'You are engulfed by lightning. You have taken 34 points of damage.'

Those are the only four spells he cast on me during the fight. I don't know for sure what spells he was casting, but if it was a player he would have Force Shock (179 max) and Frost Shock (187 max) at level 27. So I would guess I had 4 partial resists. Certainly I had not even one outright resist from a mob 23 levels lower than me. I know this is only one fight, so hardly overwhelming evidence. I would be glad to test more, if the GMs have a desire for that sort of thing.
