Subject: Re: Looks like Lullaby is broken


Tested it against a L4 snake. 154 charisma, lute equipped.

415 pulses of the song
10 ( 2.4%) outright resists
193 (46.5%) secondary resists
212 (51.1%) successful nods

GZ said at the level difference between a L35 bard and L1 mob,
the rate of the secondary resists should be 25%, modified by
charisma. Maybe they got the sign on the charisma modifier
wrong, and instead of secondary resists being 25%-20%=5%,
they're getting 25%+20% = 45%?

I also verified what Kitasi claimed. Lullaby does NOT work
like Pixie Strike, where a secondary resist on an already
nodded mob will keep it slept. Both an outright resist or a
secondary resist results in the mob waking up and attacking
you.
