MR 19 means that you'll fail somewhere in the neighbourhood of 1-5% of the time.
That's the theory. It assumes a minimum-level caster, base dominion, etc. Practice is somewhat different. My experience is that any one (or even two) things with 19 MR facing a squad of 5 or more Atlantis or Pythium astral mages will fall to soul slay, and probably sooner in the battle rather than later (and will probably be paralyzed to boot).
Yep - especially considering that most people who are trying to do enslaves or soul slays, etc, probably have equipped their mages with items such as Rune Smasher that give a bonus to penetrating MR.
