From Ester's Post in the Bug Forum
==================================
Hello all,
Abashi already preped you for this, but here is the 'official' results. Please know that not only have we done our own testing, but we have talked to GZ and the programmer in charge of such things.
Lullabye is working as we intended. The song was not meant to work well on mobs over level 30. The upgrade is the Pixie strike, and then again Twilight. However, even the upgrages were never meant to be as effective as the Enchanter's spells.
I am sorry this was not found out earlier. I will continue to look into any other songs that may be bugged.
If you have comments on the design of these or other songs please feel free to take them to General Discussion.

That pretty much says it all, 40%ish resists on any mob 1-30 is as intended.
