Since barbs are not -resisting- magic, they are absorbing it, shouldn't there be a cap on how much they absorb? If they absorb more mana worth of spells than their hp pool in the span of a certain duration (2 ticks?) they should explode, damaging everyone around them.



But no, really, there should be some potential downside to being completely immune to magic. Maybe a fatigue-esque affect?

Some potential downside like not having any buffs at all and being unable to be healed via any caster, so his healing (via herbs) can be removed by bashing him?

Whoever the barb is hitting has no buffs either.

There's already plenty of downsides to being totally resistant to magic.

Not in PvP.

With AoN, there's no reason to NOT be an MR barb in terms of PvP.

In a group fight, you're correct.

Not even. It's not like Zonin has made the world catch on fire yet with his elite skills.
