Return back poison/disease resistance to both argonians and bosmers

It's obvious that with new racials both argonians and bosmers are far from BiS for anything (argonians look like only 3rd choice for tanks after imperial buffs). Can we have at least our resistances back? If ZOS think that extra 500 stamina/magicka which this races received "in compensation" are enough for all other nerfs applied, no, it is not.

    Actually, I think resistance to both should only be an Argonian thing. Bosmer should have resistance to non-magical disease. And stealth.
    Taking stealth away from the Bosmer is like taking magic away from the Altmer, making Nords allergic to mead, or making Orcs pretty.

    bosmer gets disease, argo gets poison.

    bosmer gets disease, argo gets poison.

    That's insane. It's Argonian who are immune to disease (like Knahaten Flu), not Bosmers.

    I could see both races getting poison and disease resists, but the immunities would be different. So Argo gets disease immunities and bosmer get poison immunities.

    Give them both, both resistances but at a lower values.
    Give only one immunity to each.

    Morrowind and Oblivion, Bosmer and Argonian had the same disease resistance (75), but Argonians were immune to poison (100).
    Giving Argonians resistance to both disease and poison and immunity to the poison effect, and bosmer resistance to disease and immunity to the disease effect is fair and more consistent with lore than the current setup.
    Taking stealth away from the Bosmer is like taking magic away from the Altmer, making Nords allergic to mead, or making Orcs pretty.

    The setup right now is that Argonians get disease resistance and immunity to diseased effect and Bosmer get poison resist and immunity to poisoned effect.

    Before, they both had resistance to both.

    I can see giving Argonians back the poison resistance, as that is entirely lore friendly. I still wish Bosmer would get their stealth back.

    I think its fair that bosmer and argonian only get one resistance type each. I wouldn't mind small buffs for some of the other passives, though.
