Isn't it fair that magic gets disrupted a lot since most people have 20-40% resistances?

and what stat penetrates it? and are there any bypass resist abilities?

You already had more success on dot based classes like shaman by not using the dots and just sticking to Brain busta + Bunch of waagh.

Well, then i dont ever want to get anything done to me by any mdps ever since i can run 105% armor on my IB, i guess that is also "fair".

And i am not talking about taking 0 damage, i am talking about being immune to all of their skills and them having 0 effect, thats what happens when you get disrupted.

And weapon skill makes you ignore armor but no amount of it will you make ignore all armor and no amount of int will make 25% of your spells get disrupted against a basic target that spent rr on deft defender or simply has an IB/BG in their group, nevermind healers which are just immune to magic.

Thats avoidance not resist. Flanking is the counter to melee avoidance. Stat counters ranged avoidance because its not feasible to flank in the same way.

I assume you're talking about weapon skill but I haven't seen anyone actively stack that stat except few SHs. Sure, it's there and most people have it at around 350ish but despite its existence I still would prefer magical damage over physical on a rdps.

There is the choice to though. You'll still get over 20% penetration which would bring many none tank not stacking armour down to resist levels anyway. Resists get a cap instead of a penetration stat. I imagine Mythics original thinking was maybe magic was meant to kill tanks.

At times live was very rock, paper, scissors with tank>mdps>rdps>tank

WS is very easy to stack for classes like SW and Slayer as well because of the +main stat, +WS, -toughness tactics.
