It does have an impact, but it's nowhere near the same result as training acc or dex, and it's even more difficult to train.

I think the first statement here explains it all. Res seems to have been meant as a counter to both acc and str... but since most people at the high end train their primary weapon stats to 150% or more of their resistance, it doesn't have that much of an effect..

It also explains why people with most of their stats together in the 20's feel it is important and people with 40+ accy/Str don't think it is. when you are have 23 res and are fighting people with 25 accy/str, going to 24 res is huge. when your res is 38 and you are fighting people with 50+accy/str..39 res is a near meaningless increase.
