Regarding:
Fear doesn't always work: We've seen two cases so far where ranged units have attacked units higher level than they are. In both cases there were no equal or lower level units for the feared unit to attack. Slinger shot a dragon and orc catapults shot a soothsayer, both when feared.

Fear generally works, but I just encounter a situation where it did not work, so it is not fixed in Patch 4. A Slinger was able to attack my Emerald Green Dragon. Not sure if it was because it used an Attack Rune, because it used its talent Hail of Stones, because it was under the influence of Freeze, or something else.

It happened again, a Slinger attacked my Emerald Green Dragon while Feared. This time the Slinger used a Luck Rune and its Hail of Stones talent. The Slinger had no extra effects affecting it. It got a new turn that round but did not use that because of Fear. Maybe Fear does not prevent units from using their talents?
