It's questionable if I'd survive long enough against blue mobs
to do an extensive test. The short test I did in Mistmoore
against a mix of "high" green and low blue mobs had a
secondary resist rate of 53%. My cleric friend healed me 4 or
5 times I think. If I find myself in more of these
train-stopping situations with my group willing to derail it,
I will certainly turn on my logfile. You folks can do the
same too. All I did was use the Unix grep -c command to count
how many times "nods" appeared (N+r), how many times
"mesmerize" appeared (r), and how many times "Lucid" appeared
(R).

I plan to send the results as soon as I run some more tests on
a different mob (probably L1 snakes or rats in Freeport) to
pre-emtively disprove the excuse that Butcherblock snakes are
special.
