halflings, though used most ofr thieves, also didn’t get any votes yet.....let’s turf halflings and make them all gnomes!

For comparisons sake, the resistance list I had from 2003 (pre aristo skills that changed everything), was quite similar.

Elf
Pure Magic, Psychic, Sonic Vibration, Exhaustion, Fire, Cold, Disease, Poison, Electricity, Asphyxiation, Physical, Acid, Dessication, and Death Magic

Half-Elf
Psychic, Pure Magic, Sonic Vibration, Fire, Cold, Disease, Poison, Electricity, Physical, Acid, Asphyxiation, Dessication, Exhaustion, and Death Magic

Gnome
Cold, Poison, Pure Magic, Death Magic, Asphyxiation, Sonic Vibration, Fire, Disease, Electricity, Psychic, Dessication, Physical, Acid, and Exhaustion

Halfling
Exhaustion, Disease, Poison, Pure Magic, Acid, Asphyxiation, Fire, Cold, Electricity, Psychic, Death Magic, Sonic Vibration, Physical, and Dessication

Human
Fire, Cold, Disease, Poison, Electricity, Psychic, Pure Magic, Physical, Acid, Death Magic, Asphyxiation, Dessication, Sonic Vibration, and Exhaustion

Half-Ogre
Exhaustion, Disease, Physical, Acid, Asphyxiation, Dessication, Fire, Cold, Poison, Electricity, Pure Magic, Psychic, Death Magic, and Sonic Vibration

Dwarf
Poison, Pure Magic, Physical, Asphyxiation, Exhaustion, Fire, Cold, Disease, Electricity, Psychic, Acid, Death Magic, Dessication, and Sonic Vibration

Half-Orc
Cold, Asphyxiation, Poison, Physical, Acid, Dessication, Exhaustion, Fire, Disease, Electricity, Psychic, Death Magic, Pure Magic, and Sonic Vibration

I’m seeing physical a bit higher on the list on the page back, but I don’t know if that’s due to a change to physical resistance across certain races, class buffs, or aristo abilities. Where there any announced resistance changes since then? Elf for example appears the exact same.
