To the above enchanter, do you know how good mana sieve / theft of thought are? Do you think its more mana efficient to drain a healers mana through that method or by trying to win the nuke/heal war?

ToT is amazing, but in group v group pvp I feel I should try to provide some CC. I am not really complaining about the current system, if mez/root landed easily then I agree it would make casters too powerful, but the fact is that they do not land easily at all. In fact it is so hard to land that Nirgon thinks I am an awful chanter for bothering to cast mez instead of just mana draining folks.

My point is just that it is already very hard to land mr based spells we do not need greater resists. I also am against a magic number that makes you immune. Resists do not work like this in PvE, you can have best in slot magic resist gear for every slot and there is still a small chance that a dragon will fear you. There should always be a positive gain to increasing your resists in my opinion. I accept that there should be diminishing marginal returns on this, but it should never be zero. Perhaps asymptotically approaching zero, but never actually be zero.
