Lightning Affinity
The more Corey observed his body, the more surprised he was that he was able to obtain an affinity.
One of the benefits he expected to obtain after successfully surviving his lightning tribulation was Lightning Resistance, not Lightning Affinity.
His thought process was completely normal because this was what some people obtained after successfully surviving a lightning tribulation.
Lightning Resistance.
Apart from the fact that it was absolutely normal for him to get Lightning Resistance instead of Lightning Affinity, another reason why he was surprised that he obtained Lightning Affinity was because he was a Paragon.
A Paragon with any elemental infinity crystal would naturally attain a higher level of resistance to the element as they climbed the ladder of power.
Paragons were the banes of Mages and beings whose combat power relied on affinities.
