Getting some questions about GM..... The description indicates that it will only work on mobs up to lvl 100. If this is in fact accurate then what would be the point of using it on any raid boss? The raw spell data on Alla and Lucy shows it is unresistable, which explains the "MOB is struck on the back of the head." message, but do we gain the 26% dmg mod if the mob is over lvl 100? I plan to check my logs tonight for any change in dmg as a result of mark, but thought perhaps someone might have some data to support whether it does indeed affect mobs lvl 100 or higher or not.
This is the information in EQ's spell data. From here it looks like it only works up to lvl 100. Based on the way this is set up (where the dmg is on a separate spell, it looks like it would still work even if the stun doesn't work).

Wow, grats on that dps increase if it makes it in-game. With just 3 rogues in a raid, that's over 30 seconds of that debuff.
As Crystilla's post indicated, the debuff is not level capped, just the stun (which is standard where stuns are concerned), so you can use it on anything.
To be fair, this is very easy for raid mobs to resist...it gets resisted fairly often even on group content in RoF. -_- Having said that, it is indeed a nice ability...when it lands. It needs its resist check boosted some so it's not resisted as much imo, though. As Crystilla and Mykaylla both mentioned...the stun will only work until 100, but the ability will still...if it's not resisted...land on the mob and give them the debuff, you'll just get the "immune to this stun effect" message.
