Fuck yeah, it's one of the most annoying things EVAR. Having something that's almost gray slow me down, or the since Mirkwood occasionally getting it from mobs in front of me? No more!

Hounding Fear.

This has been the subject of many threads, complaints, frustrations, and arguments. We've responded in the past to some of these threads trying to explain things a bit (feel free to hunt them down if you wish). We also made a significant adjustment to Hounding Fear with Moria: reducing the chance of it landing on you when fighting mobs lower level than you. Currently, you actually have a 0% chance of getting hit by Hounding Fear when being attacked by mobs that are gray to you.

The reason we're responding to this (newest) thread is because the game has changed a bit: Skirmishes, specifically soldiers. We want soldiers to be able to protect players the best they can, and we also want players to be able to protect their soldiers the best they can. Hounding Fear hampers that a bit. If you're able to heal your soldier and trying to run over to him but get slowed by Hounding Fear, you might not get in range in time to save him. Therefore...

The effect "Hounding Fear" is being removed from Skirmishes AND from Landscape.
