You guys have systematically eviscerated casters patch-after-patch since beta. Stop.
First, there is a reason why casters hit hard and are capable of killing something quickly. In order to nuke something you must (a) have good position (b) not be interrupted and (c) be able to stop your cast and keep kiting if you see anything running toward you. These conditions make putting out damage difficult whereas a melee can simply stick and attack. This is why casters hit harder than tanks.
Now, please stop nerfing casters. Dark Age of Tankalot is a boring variant of the game and it will lead people to quit. Are you not learning lessons from rolling out planned patch after patch where people are sayingstop changing the game so radically? Are you trying to give people a reason to go play wow?
My suggestion is to get rid of the resist debuff change. If you want to strip lifetap casters of their bonus damage and also remove the 2.5% resist chance, that is fine, but please for the love of god do not BOTH lower resist debuff PLUS make insta heal RAs more powerful, effectively making it harder, once again, to run casters. You are making it impossible to play casters.
