Idea:

Create a Resist Magic action, analogous to Defend or Dodge. It has the benefit of forcing wizards to roll 4/DX in some circumstances, along with other benefits like providing a free Disbelieve against any Illusion that inflicts damage on the resisting figure (if it succeeds no damage is taken) and taking a die off any saving roll against magic. (Like Disbelieve, it is actually a spell so simple that anyone can cast it, though in many cultures it is believed to be something else.)

The Resist Magic talent provides the same benefits as the Resist Magic action, and mostly stacks with it.
