If thats the case, maybe they should nerf druids at the lower levels so you
won't notice a change when you get higher :) Yeah thats what they should
do! Let me ask you this...are the Fire Giant's green or blue to you? Or
even white? If they are white and above they are going to get resisted. I
group with druids now and they get resisted 100% of the time against reds,
80% against yellow and 60% against whites.
