Oh, if you're getting resisted, just swap to a different weapon. Or use your subclass.

Elemental damage is higher than usual on average and is easier to swap around, so being able to easily resist it is a balancing mechanic.

(on a less smug note, using an accessory or foot slot to deny 30% of someone's main damage type and forcing them to constantly play around that has been dumb for years and even dumber now that elemental attack is a mechanic. kill it kill it kill it)
