Currently I have a gnome/thid pale master at level 60. 10wiz / 1pal 49pm.
Would taking the rest of my classes in wiz help my dc out? It currently is
49 for fod 48 for CoD 51 for Wail 58 for Weird
I have LSF Necromancy, LSF Illusion and LSF Spell Pen and I am not having much luck with the character. It has been 3 years since I played him and I am failing DC checks and SR all the time in areas like desert and dustbone.

Levels beyond 40 are automatically taken in whatever your Control Class is, you can't "pick or choose" a different one on level up. Control class is whatever class you have the most levels in at level 40 or 1st class selected if it's a tie.

Int should be at least 64 (+27) (17/base+5/subby +20/level +10/feats +12/gear) Pm grants +3 DC necro/illy with Pm45 LSF gives +8
Cod: 10/base +27/int +3/pm +6/spell_level 8/Spell_Focus = 54
Options: +1 DC - intelligence Artifact +3 DC - temporary CL form energy drain +1 // Gear +14 +2 // Wizard Spell spec could grant Necro DC
Looking at your numbers I'd say you missed Greater Intelligence Feat (should have all 9/10 of them).

To re-iterate what KE said, you are long past the point of still retaining the freedom to "choose" which class to take a level in when you level up. At level 60 you now have 20 paragon levels left. These levels will help your DC--by giving +2 Int over those 20 levels as well as the option for PSF feats for another +2 DC. Your SP won't be improving any more (excepting some sort of gear you don't have yet) than it is now, because paragon levels don't improve CLs. However as a level 60 PM-CC mage it seems odd to me for you to report having trouble with SR in desert. Even DB. I guess Deso did a good breakdown of the spell DC but yeah again for a level 60 Thid PM those numbers seem a bit low.

Yes I am missing int gear. I took a break in 2009 and came back last week to a naked account.

Well now you can even get not only +14 but +16 attribute gear! Yep, that probably clears up that mystery then--add +6 DC from +12 Int gear and those numbers start looking a lot better
