do double healer warrior, and it seriously can take 5 purges to remove a single blessing of freedom / protection, even when its the only buff up there. I know pallies have resistance to dispell mechancs, as to other classes, I only have about 2% chance to spell hit, and no spell penetration, should I have more to counteract this, or just eat it?

Ehm, Only ret paladins have a resistance to dispell effects, which is only for seals but does protect the other buffs.

If you try to purge like a priest who has dispel resistance its a pain to purge bof/bop cause their trash buffs will protect it, but if its the only buff on say a shaman then you're really really unlucky.

Most paladins go deep enough into prot to grab 1 or 2 pts into stoicism which im fairly sure gives you 15% and then 30% chance for their spells to resist dispell mechanics.

dispell resists make me sad inside, i remember losing a 3v3 last season only because we couldnt cc the pally due to 3 mass dispell resists
As if that wasnt enough the third one hit me with UA :rolleyes:

If your not exagorating and this is becoming a game breaking matter, then yes, you want to do all you can in orderto minimize the chance paladin spells have to get purged. Otherwise suck it up, from my experience you don't see all that many paladins outside of double healer teams, but thats just me. From here its a personal choice you have to make yourself counting how many palys you fight, how many times it becomes game breaking or wouldve won a match earlier/easier if you had gotten it off the 1st or 2nd time instead of the 2nd, 3rd and so on.

well, I play as enhancement shammy atm. I purge non spot. And I noticed that dispell resistanse is realy high. Sometimes I can not remove a single mark of the wild with 3 purges. Sometimes I can not remove blessing of protection at all. Maybe there could be a bug, similar to poison cleansing resist bug, that existed half a year "unnotised"? dunno.

Does + hit realy help ? i mean when i purge bof or bop the problem isnt realy 'resists' but that my purge failed(says like "your purge on X blessing of freedom failed") or somthing like that

Pretty much any healer except a pally wants to have 3% spellhit and spell pen on cloak. Druids need it for cyclone/roots, priests need it for dispel/mana burn, and shamans need it for purge/shocks. 3% isn't particularly hard to get. If you're using BT gems then your best course of action is a few 10 spellhit gems in your gear, this will take less of a toll on your stats than losing healing enchants on helm/gloves. Spell pen is mainly to negate racials and motw.
