I had a heavy fire mage and a tank that I spent allot of time building a resist set up so my mage could heal him with a fireball while damaging baddies. I was absolutely happy and was working on a poison and ice set to do the same. Then they broke my f'ing entire game and hours of work with one patch that I cannot avoid or reverse.

It was no secret that resistances could be raised to 100 and change from damage reduction to healing when interacting with an element. I think you're patting yourself on the back a little too hard with this idea that you broke the mold and developed a "strategy" here. Because another perspective is that you simply took advantage of a questionable mechanic - you and everyone and their brother, apparently. The world needs lemmings too, I guess. rolleyes
