Default Resist gear = casters useless?

Trying to figure out what class to roll. One one hand, with no resist gear, casters always win, on the other hand with resist gear, casters can't land spells, so... I roll a monk and hope I cruise control into phat loot before the casters find me?

Its a pay off I think. You get owned with no gear at low levels, but casters have a hard time vs you when you do get the gear and resists.

There are only 3 classes that cant cast spells and they have diciplines which are deadly.

Random memory: As an Enchanter on TZ back in the day, I walked around with 255 MR and was invincible...well, until the usual SK's would see me and my day was over. Darkness would rarely fail to stick and that was that. Kunark/Velious timeframe. Of course, I couldn't kill anyone either with 255 MR because I was human and had maybe 120 INT with associated mana pool.

Could wear 255 MR without fear of losing an item.

Sounds broken. Glad I stopped after Kunark. I tried again once PoP was out and laughed at how rediculous PoK and PoT was.

Casters are going to find you and the mages will laugh hysterically at the MR route until you've accomplished all your goals.

Well, that's if I'm playing the monk you speak of anyway.

I remember MR making a huge difference, but not so much CR or FR. It's not like if you have 120 CR you are going to be fully resisting ice comet every hit.
