most elemental is only scary because of convction/lr, in which case you stack. whisps are the only thing that's scary otherwise, in which case points into holy resist lightining skill.
what's most scary though are might/amped/fanat packs though. 50 dr really is necessary imo for the most survivable hc char
defense is under rated. not getting hit = ehp
20 pts into resist lightning = 10% max lightning resist
19 pts into holy shield = minor dex savings & +285% enhanced defense
lets say base def is
150 st
1300 enigma
350 coa
100 tgod
50 uppd hotspor
70 trangs

rougly 2k defense base... so +285% = 5700 more defense.
If you have 10k defense under the old setup and 15.7k defense with this new setup
oblivion knights will have 5.5k to 6k attack rating
10k defense = 6,000/(6,000+10,000) = 37.5% chance to be hit (before level difference calculation.)
15.7k defense = 6,000/(6,000+15,700) = 27.6% chance to be hit
It seems like 10% but it isn't, you're actually 36% more likely to be hit with max lightning resist instead of max holy shield (37.5/27.6).
