Warrior Challenge (Aug 2014): Dreadhorn

Let's take a look on Navrey, a keyless peerless with 160 barding difficulty:
Normal:

Discorded:
View attachment 42407

She lost a flat 14% in each resist (each resist had 14 points subtracted from it), and her skills, sans poisoning were reduced by 14% (initial skill was multiplied by 0.86).
But she doesn't display the "shrugged off" message. So, for peerless bosses like Dreadhorn, Mel, Chief Paroxysmus, etc, a flat reduction of 7% in each resist and a loss of 7% on each skill (initial skill gets multiplied by 0.93) would be pretty acceptable.
So the discorded Dreadhorn would look like this:
Resists 39/54/56/63/67
Skills: 120.9/83.7/102.3/120 (posioning isn't affected by disco)/102.3/102.3/102.3

Much less than what Navrey suffered, but still worth the trouble of discording him.
As it is now, Dread, Mel, Chief Paroxysmus and so on are suffering a 1% flat reduction in resists and the initial skill is being reduced by 1% (skill multiplied by 0.99). Not a very return for your investment in bardic skills.
Thanks for the report. Will investigate further with the rest of the team to see whether this is working as intended or if any change should be made. Thanks again!
