Hmm, I'm not sure that I like your fixes for this problem. (And yes, you can add me to the growing list of people who have been one shotted by a mage, although my pyroblast was a far more moderate 4500...nerf perception. :P )

Would the diminishing returns on +damage and +crit be wedded with a similar diminishing returns on +healing? If not, I can envisage a purepwnage situation where I can't out damage your renew. :shuriken:

Solution two wouldn't really solve the problem, it would just extend the argument. Again, the healing classes would benefit far more from this than anyone else, unless healing was similarly nerfed. As is stands now, my damage is insufficiant to beat a paladin and I rely on crits to defeat holy/disc priests.

The first solution seems the best. However, given the way resistances work, it would hurt the caster classes far more than the melee classes. Fire mages are already hurt by the amount of fire resistances available in MC, and if FR was mage more redily available that situation would be exacerbated.

Any across-the-board increase to resistances would need, in my opinion, to be accompanied by a rethinking of the way resistances work. If Blizzard could rework the somewhat all-or-nothing nature of resistances - perhaps placing them in-line with smother scaling of armor - then I could see a broad increase in resistances working.

While I agree that the scaling of offence and defense needs to be addressed, some care is required.
