right now on every server, holy resistance is not a separate entity, but shared with the other 5 elements on the character sheet. (reason why there are so many bugs with holy spells and such)
with the bugged prismcharm as a great test(or any item/enchant with +all resist). use it to gain up to 150 resist all, have a pally use hammer of wrath, consecrate, or any holy damage ability and it gets almost fully resisted on damage for both binary and non-binary spells. this means that All resistance affixes are including holy resistance(some believe holy resist is linked to fire resist here). holy resistance should not be included in the all resistance affix or part of the character sheet of the 5 elements. this should also be the same for all NPC's and bosses as there are no mobs that should resist holy(because it is not part of the resistance sheet).
this is a mangos zero issue and would require a complete overhaul on it.
TLDR, don't expect pallys to get fixed anytime soon.
also waiting on the item from bug trio to test as well considering it is 100 all resistance. (maybe ISVV team can delve into this and confirm that holy resist is part of the all resist function)
I updated the findings to the bug report as well. https://report.nostalrius.org/plugins/tracker/?aid=2871
thanks for posting this both here and on the bug tracker but I don't think that item is bugged - it turns out that certain special items like this do in fact provide holy resistance but are rare and situational at best - for example:
Thick Obsidian Breastplate
Binds when equipped
Chest Plate
814 Armor
+38 Strength
+16 Stamina
Durability 165 / 165
Requires Level 60
Equip: When struck by a non-periodic damage spell you have a 30% chance of getting a 6 sec spell shield that absorbs 300 to 501 of that school of damage.

Provides the following buff:
Holy Resistance
Instant
Absorbs 300 to 501 holy damage. Lasts 6 sec.

And if you look at the item you mentioned, there is a post that states it also provides holy resistance:
Prismcharm
Binds when picked up
Trinket
Use: Increases all resistances by 20 for 30 sec. (cooldown 30 min)

yes, this does effect holy resistance.

That being said, no NPCs should have any +Holy Resistance values assigned to them period and the fact that I have found countless NPCs (both trash and bosses) across the full spectrum of available content means that the bug is quite wide ranging.
TLDR +Holy Resistance needs to be removed from the NPC database post haste please!
