Fear vs. frightened? are they the same?

[joonkimdmd]

I was fight a dragon and he made all my characters 'frightened'.
Is that the same as 'fear'?
I have some skills that says saving throws against fear or immune to fear (paladin)...etc.
If my characeters are already frightened, is it too late to put immunity or saving throw buffs on them?
What are the ways to either prevent or cure frightened? My characters just run around for 3 min and die.

Will be interested by answer without looking online ah.

Paladins get mercies for their lay on hand, one level removes fear and the second removes frightened. Then again, good luck running after your frightened character to lay hands on him when fighting a dragon ah.

i found the best counter to the frightened aura was my pally's greater courage aura seemed about the only thing that worked

Remove Fear description says +4 saving throw against fear but it doesn't completely remove Fear. What does +4 saving throw really do against feared characters? Do they roll a dice + 4 modifier and have to beat DC of fear each turn in order to remove fear?

Yeah, it worked. I wish the range was much bigger though. If my team wasn't very close to pally, they would still get feared :(

I swear with aura of greater courage I'll still get feared e,e

At some point the DC required are in the 40+ and you have like 20 on your save. Prepare to see running away characters and if you have Aivu, enemies. (Enemies who will run like rabbit and your PC will agro every mob on the map following them. /truestory)

That is gotta be a bug or maybe your team was not in aura range.

Remove Fear should suppress Frightened.

Remove Fear doesn't seem to suppress Cowering, but I suspect that's because it's not technically a "Fear effect" even though it says "cowering in fear". This is probably another issue entirely, though.

My biggest question is why does frighted last for 3 minutes? That is crazy long.... i just sit and watch my dudes run around while the mob chases them down and kills them.

I think remove fear is superior to pally’s aura. I will keep both of them though since it can be situational. Remove fear doesn’t remove fear but suppressed the fear effect as if there is no fear. But the ruration is longer than fear so they might as well just remove fear.

Fright or fear and it is basically game over. There is no way you can survive for three min. Either prevent it with aura or remove fear with remove fear. I can’t think of any other way.
