Dragoon Szorn (lesser faydark) too magic resistant?

Please see thread here:

Talk of many level 45 to 50 people soloing with no mention of high magic resist problems (they are landing roots and snares without issue).

I went to fight him last night as a 56 necromancer had despite casting 5+ roots not a single spell was able to land on him.

Will attempt some more, but can his MR setting be looked at?

Edit: Darkness line and fear seems to stick ok, maybe root is just having a resist streak for me (good ol RNG)

53 shaman tried yesterday, too.
At least 12 resists in a row of Enstill. Had to zone.

Tested more for the last 2 hours, have the following data:

Out of 34 Invoke Fears (neg 20 MR check) cast on him, 12 of them (35%) were fully resisted.

Out of 61 Dooming Darkness cast on him, 38 (62%) were fully resisted.

Out of 16 Splurts (neg 100 MR check), 1 (6%) of them were fully resisted.

This seems a little high for a level 56 necromancer casting on a level 45 mob.

Going to check on the faction gains now - the allakhazam thread mentions he is supposed to give a +100 faction hit on kill (to TheDead and Queen in Neriak), but the p99 wiki mentions a +10 bonus (although wiki has been off before).

Just tested the faction, nowhere near +100 a kill (but who knows, the alla poster could have been completely off).
