If you aren't playing paladin, the first quest mission is plain nasty. I decided I was hell-bent on completing it as a bloodmage, and that took a few tries (eventually got a piercing wand so I didn't need to clean up the whole level). The second mission... totally agree, it's very much fishing for the piercing wand. I don't see any other way to beat this level in the current build, 80% resistance is totally unassailable by conventional means. To some extent I'm glad to see a different approach to bosses than just "really really high damage", but resists above 66% are kinda broken.
Agree that something needs to be done about RBS. It's outright horrible currently. Taurog also really needs a physical bypass item. He's a wasted alter on levels that are cluttered with physical resistance.
