Is 50 MDB better than 100 magic evasion?
Yes
That's debatable.
If you're fighting a NM that needs magic dmg protection, you'll need more elemental resist than any reasonable job/atma combo can provide. Even if you get -100, barspell and carolx2 the results will not be as consistent as a strait up 50 MDB bonus. At the most its situational but its hardly debatable.
Resist is always a roll of the dice.
MDB is always constant.
