His answer about high level mobs is totally unrelated. I can go to the
exact same mobs I used to be able to keep asleep and now they nod and it has
no effect 50% of the time. These are guy that were green to be at 15, much
less now at 21.

Email from the Arch-Mage

Just to see if I could get a repsonse I sent a message to the Arch-Mage of
Norrath. If I had really thought I would get a repsonse I probably would
have given the questions more thought. Below, follows my questions and
repsonses.
1. Is Lullaby bugged or has it had its effectiveness reduced? I cant seem to
keep low, low greens asleep. I get the head nods message and they continue
to attack. From my experience and the posts of other Bards seems like this
song has become almost useless. Is this just something we will have to live
with?
REPSONSE - Nothing has changed - though it does lose some of its
effectiveness against higher level creatures.
******************************************************************
My Comment: I wonder if GZ even read the question? He was not asking about
higher level creatures, but about greens nodding and attacking.
******************************************************************
2. Disenchanting Melody was implemented with the last patch. However, it
removes all buffs (positive and negative) from the top down. This makes this
song very unpopular as it effects the entire group. Was this an intentional
design? If so would it be possible to make it a targeted song so as not to
remove every buff on the whole team to assist one individual?
REPSONSE - This is the design of the song. It is made for when you really
need bad magic stuff removed, and are not really picky about how it goes
away.
******************************************************************
My comment: It is a shame to wait so long for this song to be fixed to have
it be so completely useless. Another song to be moved to the page in my song
book for completely useless songs.
******************************************************************
Well guys there you have it, according to GZ nothing has changed with
Lullaby, (Recon he even has a clue as to how bad this song gets resisted.)
and Disenchanting Melody appears to be just the way they want it. (For the
life of me, I wish I could see why the could not have made this a targeted
song)
Just thought I would share this info with you.
