Je centralise un peu toutes les sources à ce propos exposées sur ce topic et sur celui-ci, merci à Lazmat.

FONCTIONNEMENT BUG / QU'ON RETROUVE SUR LE SERVEUR :
Le fouet mental présente des résistances partielles (autant celui des prêtres que celui des mobs tel que C'thun).

COMMENT CA DEVRAIT FONCTIONNER :
Le fouet mental ne devrait pas présenter de résistances partielles (pour les prêtres et les mobs comme C'thun).

SOURCE MONTRANT QUE CELA DEVRAIT FONCTIONNER AINSI (vidéo, patchnote, etc...) :
- wowwiki C'thun : Mind flay is a binary spell, that is, it can be resisted completely (anti-Shadow buffs help), but its damage can't be reduced

- elitistjerks : Certain spells are considered "binary" and cannot be partially resisted under any circumstance. These spells are usually tied closely to an essential debuff. Most spells are not binary, Frostbolt and Mind Flay being the notable exceptions. Binary spells are also exempt from the innate magic resist counted for targets of higher level than the caster.

- joystick : A binary spell... Does damage and also has some sort of secondary effect. This includes spells such as the Warlock's Drain Life (which returns health to the Warlock), the Priest's Mind Flay (which slows the target), and the Mage's Frost Bolt (which slows the target). Because they have secondary effects, these spells will always hit either for full damage or for no damage -- since there's no good way to determine whether the secondary effect would be applied on partial resists, so Blizzard simply decided to make binary spells hit for all or nothing.

COMMENTAIRES :

D'autres sources certainement moins fiables :
- wowwiki archive sorts binaires : [..] Like pre-2.1 Mind Flay and Vampiric Embrace were binary and never received partial resists on ticks. After 2.1 they started to receive partial resists on ticks and caused Shadow Priests whining in all forums.[..]

- wowwiki sorts canalisés : Resists: Due to most channeled spells being binary effects (with the exception of Arcane Missiles), such spells can only hit or miss; partial resists are not possible. This and the fact that those spells are cast instantly means that a resist will only cost the time of the Universal Cooldown instead of the whole channeling time. Therefore, especially long time channels are only minorly affected by resists.

- wowwiki sorts binaires : Binary spells are spells which can only have full effect (hit) or no effect (resist); partial resists are not possible. Normally, damage spells are only binary if they have an additional non-damage effect. Some examples are Death Coil and Mind Flay. Frostbolt is no longer a Binary Spell. [..] For binary spells, both spell penetration and spell hit rating can be used to overcome resistances.

C'est une bonne nouvelle ça :) .

Death coil(warlock) à rajouter dans le report.

Toujours d'actualité, testé et reproduit à 100% sur MindFlay avec un personnage doté de résistance ombre élevé (>120).

Erreur : Le contenu de ce bloc n'est pas disponible pour les joueurs (ce sont généralement des précisions ne concernant que les administrateurs du serveur)

Toujours d'actualité. Le fouet mental subit des résistances partielles à chaque tic.



Il s'agit d'un test sur Pyron (élémentaire) devant BRD. Même constat sur les draconiens à UBRS - le pire étant Drakkisath et ses adds.
