Getting feared only 1 out of 5 times by dragon roar seems way off with only 150 MR (150 MR is really not all that much, keep in mind). Maybe that's just me. Why do you assume this is unintended?

Any update on the fix Uthgaard? Playing my druid solo is almost impossible =/. Hope things are going well!

i don't know my exact MR for the fight. 2nd attempt at draco i had 220ish MR with bard song and got feared 3 times still. I don't have data beyond anecdotal on how things were exactly in classic, but they are suddenly incredibly hard to resist where before you didn't need a bard + best in slot resist gear to have a shot at resisting.

It seems to me like dragon roar was too trivial before. With both Bard songs, GRM (and maybe MR pots) with alright resist gear, naggy's dragon roar used to succeed maybe 10% of the time. Even with the best possible resists, I don't think a raid encounter should be landing spells so rarely. If the devs want to look into it I guess they can, but I see no reason why it should be changed unless there's pretty good evidence that high MR was that effective against dragons in classic.
