Hee hee. I hope that's all it is, but I am not too hopeful as he didn't
seem surprised that he saw it vs the level one snake. He only seemed
surprised and upset that we didn't see it too. I was getting almost exactly
20% secondary resists before the patch that put in the message, will have to
see if I get nearly 50% now as well. For me it was 5% R, 20% r, pre-message
path, will let you know what it is now.

No, I think GZ just screwed up the level dependency formula
for this second save. It works correctly with Pixie Strike -
the "your target resists your attempt to mesmerize it" message
only starts to become common against L35+ mobs. He may have
tried to copy it over for Lullaby, tweak it for Lullaby being
a lower level song, and screwed up there resulting in L1 mobs
resisting as if they were L40+.

I'll try it on some high level mobs (assuming I survive :).
