Icon8 Help Resists!!!!

I have created a Wizzy and I love the uber dps but the one thing I keep running into are resists. It is incredible a target will resist 5 6 7 spells before one becomes affective. I have adpet III no masters. I was wondering what you guys do to minimize that. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

What Sac said, land the debuff the first thing you do and where possible, using gear with bonus to disruption for non-raid content, most of all solo content, helps as well. For soloing, don't hesitate to land an INT-hex doll early as well.
For raids, give everyone a hell for not debuffing if shit resists much. :D

Problem i've found on some mobs in SOH is ice spears will resist like 5-6 times in a row. If I get that initial resist I just go down the rotation and come back to it, otherwise i'm just sitting there trying to land ice spears and before ya know it the mob is at half HP.

I've noticed the same thing Kamfer.. I thought they were supposed to make debuff spells more effective. It seems like this spell as well as many others are resisting like crazey lately on a lot of orange content. It's becoming pretty annoying.

I'd say Ice spears resisting is the most annoying thing in game for me atm. I mean yea resists here and there are fine but a few times I got like 2 in a row resists and so I was like screw it i'm gonna cast till it lands and several times I could never get it to land even after casting 10 times in a row. None of the other spells inbetween got resisted. I may /bug it next time I get a string of resists.

I even waited a while in hopes that with all the raid debuffs stacking it would have better chance to land. I was sitting at the usual 1235INT, not sure what my disruption is at, have to check that in raid. Think i was at 427 solo last i checked.

Is yours Adpet 3 or M1? Mine is Adept 3 still. I bought the M1 when I was 77 for 15plat but resold for 35plat so I could fully Adept 3 myself. Probably should have kept it since i've not seen it on the broker.

Im having that same issue, but mostly just in SOH. Not only do i get resisted like crazy but it seems my spell dmg is a shit load less then in VP, ToK, or anywere else. Any of you guys experiencing this also?

Only thing I can think is they gave SOH mobs insane resists, or at least cold resists.
