The entire resist system on p99 is wrong and easymode compared to Classic Everquest

All non-damage spells are supposed to resist 3% of the time at minimum, except Tash, and it's 11% of the time at minimum if you're not 11 levels higher than the target. This also applies to tick saves (although I slightly misspoke earlier, as it's a 50% chance for Charm to check for the tick save, although it's 6% minimum chance of resist for Charm tick saves, so still the same 3% minimum for the best case scenario).

Best case scenario with Charm is going to be that it breaks every 2.2 minutes on average and then 6% of the time on every charm break you will get a resist on either your stun or mez. Then on top of that, root will not be a guaranteed hold on the target you're trying to kill and most worthwhile targets will be resisting your spells at an 11% minimum rate, and if they summon you might be interrupted on even trying to cast your stun/mez, since channeling should fail more often.
I'm confused. Is there a thread where the staff has said they think the evidence in that post is definitive and they are making changes?

Because the link you provided just appears to be you making the same argument you are here, without any staff feedback. Unless I missed a post by Nilbog or something in that thread, which I admittedly did not flip through closely.
