Sadly the information we are looking for is server sided similarly to the blur % chance. Here is the spdat.

Interesting to note that there was no -10 MR modifier at any point in the classic era as I checked spdat's going back to Kunark release. This spdat image is from 04-04-01.

Will try to gather more info but it's pretty bare.

This is an additional issue, but I'll put it here to consolidate information on this spell.

It always struck me that the mana cost of this spell was pretty insane. 275 mana for a 30 second mez is a LOT.

I went to check sources outside of P99 and several sources agree. The spell has a mana cost of 125. Comments on Alla, unfortunately only go back to 2003 on this spell so aren't helpful though they do show the -10MR. Then I found this:

So I believe the initial cost when Kunark was released was 275, but it was lowered to 125 shortly after release. Unfortunately I'm not able to find an SPDAT parse for that time period to totally confirm this. Can anyone help with this? Either the spell originally had an even higher mana cost and it was reduced TWICE to get to the 2003 level, or it was changed shortly after release.
