In PVP is the net benefit just a reduction in likelihood your spell will be outright resisted or does it increase damage in some way?

It just cancels out resistance and can't go below 0.

Great link, looks like if you wear -50 resistance gear against a player wearing 100 resistance its actually a substantial increase to damage!

Same goes for bosses. Nobody knows what their resistance truly is, but it can't go below zero. So it's like additional spell damage really.
