Default Full Fears with 255 MR

Been meaning to make a post on this for a while. Because its nothing new ...

Since the resist change it seems like I get feared (full duration) with 255 MR. This is not random, it happens ALOT. It almost seems like you guys lowered max MR that can be attained, but didnt change the resist check on fear itself. Would appreciate any info, thanks in advance for your time

A number of the Dragon Fears have a -150 component so you are basically saving vs 105 when buffed with max MR.

Fear log with 255 MR- never once have i been feared for the full duration, most of the time if i keep my MR maxed and it's not getting dispelled and fear hits it will last roughly 3-20 secs. Anything lower then 255 MR and your looking at close to a full duration fear. Working as intended~

Would also say it works like intended.

Back in Velius, when killing eg Sland, most of the raid incl. clerics got feared at least once during a fight. Only the tanks were able to stick on him when using fearless

I watched a video of Rising Ascension doing Zlandicar. It seems to be classic; they actually pointed a camera at the screen!

Based on this I would say the full resist rate we have here (about 50%) is pretty classic. About half of them go flying every time those green skulls come out.

What is not classic here is the duration. The cameraman is feared all four times, but two of the fears last 2s or so, and the longest is like 8-10s for an average of 5s. They are spending the vast majority of their time under the dragon. Here its easy to be feared for 20s (I had 245 MR vs Klandicar):

[Fri Mar 27 19:25:13 2015] You lose control of yourself!
[Fri Mar 27 19:25:15 2015] You are no longer afraid. (2s)
[Fri Mar 27 19:46:31 2015] You lose control of yourself!
[Fri Mar 27 19:46:49 2015] You are no longer afraid. (18s)
[Fri Mar 27 19:48:20 2015] You lose control of yourself!
[Fri Mar 27 19:48:40 2015] You are no longer afraid. (20s)
[Fri Mar 27 19:49:32 2015] You lose control of yourself!
[Fri Mar 27 19:49:52 2015] You are no longer afraid. (20s)

So basically I'm wondering whether the fear duration is appropriately checked for MR. It seems like higher MR means you not only resist more but the duration of fear when it lands is lower.

They also seem to be nearly immune to his MR ae (the disease AE hits them every time).
