Default Necro lull -- this can't be classic.

I'm getting somewhere around 35% critical lull resist rate and about 50% general resist rate. Did someone forget to move the decimal place over one digit?

Mob level, MR, your level all matter.

As an enc with 255 MR, I had something like 50 consecutive resists trying to calm a mob yesterday. Sometimes it happens. We need more info to determine if there is a bug.

Blues that are nearly green to me. Their MR cant be good because roots and charms stick exceptionally well.

Still need a lot more data. What’s the sample size?

Yesterday’s run for me was very unusual. Usually I’m able to calm the same mob (literally the SAME mob) within 5-10 attempts. I literally burned 50-60% of my mana bar calming yesterday. Didn’t strike me anything but some bad RNG.

I'm calling bullshit. I've been running with an enchanter of the same level for 15-20 hours with constantly using lulls and not once has there been a crit fail for him. There is something clearly fucked up here.

Enchanters have an extra check on crit fails based on Charisma, so isn’t an apt comparison. And maybe it’s bad RNG. Just because the game is mean doesn’t mean something is fucked up.

It's not classic. Cirit fails should be around 5% and general fails about 15% on lowish blues..

Critical resists on lull scale with charisma - not sure but think this applies to necros as well.

Please provide evidence to support your point that it isn’t classic and then post it in then bug forums. In the meantime, your experience is similar to mine - so filed under “working as intended.”

Where exactly did they get the current resist rates? And what planet did the charisma component of an enchanter spell become a benefit instead of a liability?
