Vampires have several significant exceptions to their healing penalty, including a racial. All the races that would benefit from this item would also be able to PR high potion, whereas there are builds while don't utilize elemental attack, or don't use it to a significant degree. But the downside's also to prevent synergy with builds that greatly benefit from the other status inflict stat, Faith. Without it, one could only start to drift into the range where status resist does anything, which makes the 'hefty boon' less significant than it seems. Against most focused status inflict builds, you need about 100 resist before it begins to do anything.
But Dev seems to like another idea for the item, so there's not a lot of reason to argue about it here. I believe I'll post another thread about it later.
