Discriptor (right mouse button) says 29sec
Enemy feels 45sec
Charbuild (just for convenience) says 29sec.

I have duskwood flute vs a leve l50 target.
Anyway discriptor doesnt fit timer.

target is affected for 58 seconds

give me a sec, I'll find you an explanation why.

58 seconds with a level 50 instrument.

Q: What affects the duration of Minstrel mez effects?

...

The duration of the Minstrel single-target flute mesmerize spell is affected by all 5 of the above variables, plus:

The level of the flute you are using will confer a rather substantial bonus to your mez-duration. For example, the level 42 Minstrel single-target mez song (Commanding Cadence) has an in-game delve duration of 29 seconds. Using a level 50 instrument, however, most Minstrels experience a 58-second duration (under optimal conditions).

Instrument level plays a great role with all minstrel songs. If the instrument is below character level all songs will have shorter duration (if you use a blue con instrument for instance, you will not be able to twist songs successfully because the first song will end before you manage to play it again. In case of the flute mez, (delve) duration of the mez is doubled at level 50 while using level 50 or higher flute.

Thus, your target had 22-23% body resist to have experienced a duration of 45 seconds.

Logic fails...

Thanks for the info.
