in all honesty, devs here dont care as much about making things classic, unless that makes things harder

Wrong

They've fixed tons of stuff before that made the game easier.

It actually is mezzed; not stunned. Including the raid bosses. Its just that the mez is so momentary (mostly because the raid is beating the mob) that it often only used to proc as a stun. Technically "stuns" are a different animal than "mezzes" when it comes to spell effects even though you can use a mez to functionally stun a mob. If you could time everyone turning off auto-attack on the proc then it would actually mez any mob in the game lvl 55 or under.

The effect "Befuddlement", even in modern EQ, is still a unique item proc that was meant to be part of the bard bag of tricks. I don't think there is any other item with the same effect. I would also read between the lines as to why there was never an upgrade for this item put into the game. Nonetheless, it most certainly existed in classic---and, imo, is the most "bard" item in the game after the epic.

Using it on raids, is always kinda dopey because when it procs it also memblurs (in classic eq this was the only way a bard could memblur a mob). Which pretty much means that it will pong off the tank into the dps or healers.

So basically warrior would have to mallet again, which would be pretty inefficient.

yes...but losing position on some velious mobs or pinging it off for a couple rounds of damage on non-defensive tanks is all it takes to wipe a raid.

mostly, if you equip this on a raid encounter without permission you're mostly just asking to get yelled at by your raid leader. which, depending on who you are, is great bard fun.
