The OP in that post has lots of misinformation or misunderstood game mechanics.

>>>Kelin's Lucid Lullaby, I recently tested this song out vs. a level one human warrior. My Bard was level 37 at the time, using the Lute of the Gypsy Princess and I have charisma of 141. Every round I got the 'so and so head nods' message and every nearly every round the test subject was able to attack me (about 1 in 10 rounds he would not).
As was stated, this mez lasts 1 tick, if you do not chain cast (not let it tick, but RECAST), you will not remez in time. This is because you can chain cast every 3 sec due to the 3sec cast, but the song will only pulse on the server tick, every 6 sec, the same as the tick for the mez wearing off. This is working as intended.

4 targets
You'll notice in the EQDiva website link I provided, the official description also states 4 targets. However, reading the comments reveals that the 4-target limit did not actually exist.

The fact that this song is resisted very easily doesn't really help this situation.
If he is trying to mez dark blue mobs without someone malo/tashing each one, of course he is going to get a lot of resists. In the case of KC, you had multiple 55+ (probably all four are 60) bards mezzing mobs that were low dark blue at the most, green at the least. And there were 4 of them, of course they are going to be able to lock down the mobs better.
