Should that happen ? Is this working good ?

I was digging some info on this and found that binary resists are supposed to happen. Sadly.
However I don't think this mechanism serves any purpose other than to annoy. Partial resist could be some balancing tool, but binary resists... annoying.

Cba to dig through EJ atm, but no there should not be resists on binary spells such as pestilence.

"For boss fights, this means there was 15-24 resistance added. This extra resistance meant there would be partial resists on non-binary spells from the added resistance. However, this resistance had been shown to not apply to binary spells at all."

Additionally while browsing through raidlogs I've never seen any instances of pestilence resists on any of the ICC bosses there either.

So binary resist was removed in WotLK or it has never been case?

There's a detailed description of the bug here, including a short discussion on it, as well as a method to prove/track it and compare it to retail.

Wait, so that shouldn't happen,right ?

Yes, it's a bug, it shouldn't be happening. Abra's suspicions are correct.
