It's a mix of both, but even with 274 MR at level 65 they were landing most or partials on me.
If you have to fight thee melee style find a new material source. Only way to avoid the lifetap is to root/snare and nuke

Buffing resists never helped me any. Levels helped with partial resists.

I'm pretty sure their lifetaps are a proc, not a spell. Slowing them sure helps! I turgur all greater shadows (lesser have so few hp slowing them is not necessary)Shaman d'Oggok et de l'Académie - Karana

Total resistance
I've found one way to totally resist them, but it requires an enchanter. The berserker strength spell has a 300 point damage absorbtion shield. Since a blow that is absorbed by a damage absorbtion shield is considered to not be a hit, the shadows never proc. As a chanter I keep my ranger friend under Berserker Strength all the time. If it wears off I cast AE stun, then reapply. The only time he gets LT'd is between when the previous one wears off and I cast stun. To eliminate that I've even chain casted the DA, but that causes a lot of downtime.

When I know I am going to go farm shadows for a while, i go get (in addition to my usual c3) Guard of Druzzil. In my MR gear i have around 220-230mr and I resist the lifetaps partially at least 50% of the time and completely resist them around 20% of the time.
