Considering you start at 25 magic resistance I have stacked 100 pts of resistance onto him... I would call that sub par by a long shot.
Just means the game mechanics are designed more around people have 200+ Resistance.
Like someone mentionbards shouldn't never talk about Sub Par resistance stats
anything short of 250 is low to them hehe.
You don't need to take it personally, because it isn't a personal attack.
Considering that maximum resists are 500, 125 doesn't seem like very much. (Also you have 75mr on fomelo atm, maybe the other 50 is on your shield?) Additionally, before engaging a mob that charms you should probably acquire some resistance buffs of some sort, to compensate for what is missing from your gear. Bards are extremely useful for this because as you noted, they have a MASSIVE +resist song.
A mob that is lower level than you can require some foresight/planning, especially named mobs. This isn't a game where you run into every situation swinging your sword and hoping for the best, even when mobs con light blue instead of dark blue to you. I don't see a problem with a lb to 65 named mob that must be tanked by a knight and range dpsed to death.
