Ah thanks for that info, I did create a gnome to see the initial value he got for his resist but didn't even try to play to see how it increased; I was considering using an editor to bump his VIT to 100 to see but you jumped in before I had time.

That's a big pity, it means that I fail to see ANY use for a gnome as without a decent special skill they're badly crippled for most other classes due to their crappy SPD. It's all well and good the manual saying they make good Alchy's but if they're so slow that they can't get their spell off till the end of the round, by which time they could well have been nailed by a nasty area effect like insanity, their spell power is pretty moot.
