Originally opened as https://github.com/ccshiro/cc-buglist/issues/1599

I was doing the Noggenfogger Quest today, thought I'd just mindblast some guys in tanaris but no deal. Couldn't believe my eyes when i only hit for 300-500. Checked Combat log, seems mobs 25 lvls below mine can resist 80% of my spell.

low level resist

Sorry the combatlog is german, couldn't figure out how to make the entire game english. Shouldn't be too hard to interpret though. Resisting my spell didn't happen only 1 out of 2 times, but most of the time. I got pretty lucky to at least hit SW:D fully.

low level resist 2

Shouldn't make a difference one way or the other, but just to show the shitty pre70 blues weren't responsible. Interestingly enough, while it does happen to SW:P and VT as well (to much lesser effect), Mind Flay does not seem to suffer from the issue:

low level resist 3

low level resist 4

edit: This seems to be an issue with those specific mobs, as I could hit and damage other mobs in Tanaris normally.

^ That would make it practically immune at its respective level range no ?

Against a level 70 caster the spells are by average reduced by 20.57% (see http://wowwiki.wikia.com/wiki/Formulas:Magical_resistance?oldid=1561356)

Which leads to the mob having a big 25% resist chance, a little 50% resist chance and a very small 75% resist chance to partially resist a nonbinary spell.

Since Binary spells cannot be partially resisted, you won't see it happen on the Mindflay damage. Instead Mindflay has a higher chance to be completly resisted.

If these were like that, I would make a guess that the same type of mobs in Wailing Caverns are the same. At least I've seen that on other servers.
