wow, that's pretty low :) lemme tell u one thing tho, the other members of
the party, at higher lvls, WILL be able to tell if ur spells r resisted or
not. why? because without our big dmg spells, the fights usually last much
longer. and also, many fights hinge on EVERYBODY doing their job. when i'm
in a group, everybody is counting on me to take the mob from 1/4 health to
no health. plain and simple, its my job to finish him. they dont even
expect me to start casting until the mob is at least half dead, although
they r starting to get greedy with my stun spell :) if somebody doesnt do
their part, it could result in multiple deaths. the best thing for u to do
is to let the party know that the mobs they r pulling r out of ur casting
range, and that they need to pull lower lvl mobs if possible. u can also try
different variations of spells (fire, ice, magic) just in case the mob has a
particularly high resist to any one of the types. it has worked on
occassion for me to switch between flame shock, force shock, and frost
shock.

also, i dont know what lvl u r, but i damn sure dont have room in my VERY
LIMITED 8 spell slots to put a lvl 1 dd spell :)
