The ice resist has gotten out of hand. The other day I saw someone with 92% resist to storm and fire, and also someone with 103% fire resist (yes I said 103%). The resists are just too high and is causing way too many problems pvp wise.

Wait 103?! :-o, wouldn't that mean they would take no damage to fire then!?
Pack converts, stack up on piercing moves, plus if they have that high resist to those schools that must mean they can't heal very well, they're pip chance must be down the drain and their damage boost is also bad.

Actually, I've seen this person and their other stats are not too bad. It's their pet that's giving this person some of the extra resistance, plus they're just using the Avalon crafted gear. Just think about how another school's damage boost would be against this person (as low as -103%)!
Personally, I believe something needs to be done about this. There have been many topics over at Wizard101 Central about ice being overpowered, and most of the community agrees.

yep and some other schools can do this to the only one that can use this style outside boss and mob fights are death ( curse damage doesnt effect them from there own attacks) fire ( immolating destruction)
also for those wondering if you were to take damage and ya have 100% or more resist to that damage then it says ___ immune

Ok. let's not start on Ice. No, I don't have Ice but did have one leveled to 34 and deleted it. Ice is one of the hardest to train.
If you really look very hard, you will find that other schools can also do this depending on their gear.
It is really getting very disheartening to see posts like this. Your wizard is what YOU make it.
"It is really getting very disheartening to see posts like this. Your wizard is what YOU make it."
Very true!
There is something to be said about all schools. Advantages and disadvantages. Each school can get/craft gear that will be the best for what THEY want for their wizard.
My second wizard is Ice. She's at level 71 right now. At the moment, her resistance across the board is at 20%. That's because I decided I would rather have better damage boost, power pip chance, health, healing, and accuracy.
Any school around this level who wants high resistance, is going to have to give up a lot to get it.
My Ice:
Health: 4766 Damage: 49 Resistance: 20% (across the board) Critical: 116 Critical Block: 83 (across the board) Power Pip: 104% Healing In: 44% Accuracy: 80 (base) + 18% boost
Now, my Ice hasn't gotten to Avalon yet (just started Zafaria), but my Balance has finished Avalon and I kept gear that were drops for all my wizards for when they reached the appropriate levels. The Ice gear might LOOK good, but it doesn't provide the necessary statistics that I want to keep.
Yeah, I could have massive high resistance, BUT, I'm not willing to give up my other statistics to achieve it. I need my current statistics to get me through the game with as little fuss as possible.
Besides, "resistance is futile" ....... :) (pun intended)
Well Ice can get 80+ to schools now and 5k+ health, but that doesn't mean that it's overpowered. Did you know Storm can now spam WildBolt and heal themselves and take all your blades away? Did you know Balance can take your pips away? Did you know Death can use Efreet without the pips for a -90 on you? All schools have powerful spells, and Ice just has the gear.
being ice myself, i have to agree that resistance it getting a little out of hand. personally, i resist 41% to all schools, and love it. thes problem is if an ice wizard carries large resistance gear for one or two schools, then the rest of their stats suffered badly to get it. P.S. i think the record is 74% resist to all schools
