Reading the patch notes and anything involving elemental resistance is either being changed such Fire Ward Potions and the like among other things.

I wager for the silver circlets and things like that, they're either just gonna remove the elemental resistance, so the only difference is appearance although I do wonder what that means for things like Boarkskin Wristband of Flames or whatever. It's a level 46 or so piece using a lower level piece as a base, so I wager they're gonna ditch all of them sans one and make it into a piesteskin wristband or something?
