From that forum wrote: From another point of view, this is how it will affect mezz duration - based on a group with a 35 Enh Cleric using the lvl 33 16% body resist buff:

(Based on the Albion 44 Mind AoE Mezz, 1m 12s duration, as the Mid and Hib mezzes are of shorter duration)

Base case:
With capped resist and no AoM you have 42% resistance
A 72s mezz is reduced to 41.8s duration
This is further reduced to 16.7s with Det 4

Currently:
With capped resist and AoM 2 you have 48% resistance
A 72s mezz is reduced to 37.4s duration
This is further reduced to 15.0s with Det 4

Patch 1.64 Resist Changes:
With capped resist and AoM 2 you have 45.5% resistance
A 72s mezz is reduced to 39.2s duration
This is further reduced to 15.7s with Det 4

So, after patch 1.64, you'll be mezzed for 2.6 seconds longer without AoM 2 than with it - or 1.0 seconds less if you have Det 4. Not really much of a return for 4 realm spec points.

In addition to:
1. Reduce CC duration
2. Reduce magic damage
