Nihilist has its niche purpose of negating other niche items that otherwise completely nullify a damage type that some character entirely rely on for the majority of their DPS.

Circle ring only half counts since any Ice reliant character is probably a Verglas and will Winter's Bite that absorb off.

Ignoring all resists would be nuts, maybe less so if it only bypassed item resists, but only a handful of races get fire resist to begin with (Hyattr to the highest degree (up to 50-60% due to scaling racials) , Mechanations and Phenex with a static 15%, and that's it.) Just Youkai install traits, LB skills, and the appropriately attuned Enchant Shield grant fire resist from skills.

Most times when people resist fire it's from items, so letting Nihilist ignore all of those would make it WAY more potent than it presently is. As it stands it's already an almost required item for fire mages due to bypassing one of the hardest counters in the game to their existence. Not to mention that anyone can carry around a pocket Red Letter to swap on to doom fire mages without a Nihilist.

And then you get to every *other* resist in the game being nullified, too. Some resists don't even exist on anything but items (Looking at you, Lightning), so I can't see this being balanced very easily. Maybe if it just reduced resists on the user and enemies by a certain number, or something like that, instead of total negation (and it can't drop below 0 because duh, though then you get into the issue of it possibly nullifying weaknesses...).
