Resist isn't the only purpose of a shield - blocking keeps you alive much longer than a high AC ever will because a number of 1.10 enemies ignore your AC (but not your block%). And the defense-ignoring enemies are often the ones with the highest damage per hit in the general area.

Hence the primary reason I really don't care for melee builds that forsake shields these days.
