Those Lucy percentages don't jive with what I saw in classic at all. I remember being aware that memblur could fail, but it succeeded very often (perhaps more often than not).
Same. I remember when sullon came out, crushbone we would CONSTANTLY memblur/nuke mobs and steal exp from groups that were on the mob, with just one blur/nuke. And it would almost always work. The way i thought blurs worked back then, was that they erased a specific amount of hate/"damage count" (because not all hate is damage) for each person... but maybe it was just a flat 80% success rate, i don't know.

When trying to get rid of agro, if one cast didn't do it, then 2 probably was enough, although it seemed to be less reliable as you leveled / as time passed (maybe the mechanics changed somewhere... i remember in my higher levels it wasn't as reliable as low).

Also mez would make them forget you but only like 1/10. (again i remember it blurring more than that in early levels.. maybe due to differences in how charisma was factored in?)
