did anyone ever figure out what this "Fear Fruit" reward item does? http://everquest.allakhazam.com/db/item.html?item=106181
Was hoping it would sub for a crimson potion, but that only works it your regen is less than the dot from fear fruit, eh?
500 point self dot for a base of 1 minute (extendable), good to use during the beguiler phase in Tower of Rot; also turns your screen purple.
Seriously that's what it does? I agree.. invaluable. I had no idea it could be used to break mez. It's always just had a spot in one of my bags, but, to date, I have yet to use it other than the first time I clicked it. Then I forgot about it.
It will break mez as long as you don't have any HP Regen buffs on. To check whether you need to click off a regen, while the Fear Fruit effect is running, open your inventory and check the Secondary Stats tab, on the left side all the way at the bottom is your In Combat Regen. If this number is positive and green, the DoT will not wake you, if it is red and negative then you are good to go. I have needed to use the Fear Fruit constantly in this expansion because there are so, so many enchanter mobs. They mez the first person who performs a hostile action to enter their hatelist, so if you have a puller then he's the one who usually has to deal with it. But sometimes a roamer or respawn catches you and as a tank you snap it up quick only to find yourself mezzed, so you need to learn the names of the enchanter type mobs to respond quickly.
