Subject: Lullaby vs Pixie (was Charm)


Just wondering why you wouldn't use Lullaby over Pixie in this situation
(assuming you aren't trying to interrupt any casters). I'm not high enough
level to sing Pixie yet so can't speak from experience. It just seems that
it would be harder and more time consuming to target the three mobs in
combat versus singing the Lullaby and not worrying about targetting. Do
mobs have a higher resist rate versus Lullaby than Pixie? If so thats an
obvious reason to use Pixie. I assume the duration of the two are close to
the same. Please provide clarification for us junior bards:-)
