Truth be told, Wizard Slayers get jacked, especially when it comes to Magic Resistance. Sum total of what you can get:
A certain sword (10%)
A certain shield (5)
A type of armor, usable only in the Chapter 5 areas (5%)
A certain suit of armor, first available in Chapter 6 (20%)

And that, my friend, is IT. 35%, plus your piddling 1% per level. The only ways a Wizard Slayer can get remotely decent MR is by either
1) Having ToB and Dualing to Thief
2) Installing Oversight, which does many things, including boosting a Wizard Slayer's MR to 4% per level
3) Installing Tactics and winning a very difficult fight, in exchange for a Cloak that Wizard Slayers might not even be able to wear.
