Good ones do.

Bad ones don't.


Death occurs when life hits zero, not mana.

Now you've switched your argument to how much you're willing to spend on a char... This char is bad because i wasn't willing to spend 10k on it?

The majority of Jspers dont have massive amounts of fg to spend on excelent rares to make up for missing resists.

The fact that 5% of damage taken goes to your life means that resists aren't worth the fg if you have to choose between that and mana based on a buget.

Mana is a shield that can be penetrated if brought down to zero, not a life bar. You would have to be stupid to neglect resistances because you have a mana shield; that's like a max block caster ignoring DR.

So... when mana hits zero, what then? You die? Whereas if you had resists you would be able to take several hits and run off to regen mana several times, increasing your survivability greatly.

1. It's not like a max block caster ignoring DR because ES sorcs rely on mana far more than a vita caster, with max block, relies on DR. You can get by on a max block caster without DR, the same way an es sorc with a limited budget can get by without resists.

2. You didn't even address the point I made in that quote at all.
