Its not a bug so its not going to get fixed, no one can "fear" creeps, and yes it does work on other things in the ettenmoors, i have used it on, normal mobs, elites, elite masters, even works fine on the tyrants.

ive seen fear on some creeps so wondered what was doing that to them?

I have tried beast mobs but not castle ones. Nice to know i can fear them if we take a place.

My fear spell for beasts dont fear wargs mp's which also is a shame.

I suppose it's a balancing issue. The minstrel fear shout obviously doesn't work as well.
While stuns work fine which is OK as they are short term and a "root" effect, sending the creep off on a merry random chase would be really too much.
Imagine a situation where a group is attacking one of the strongholds. Just one fear could completely ruin the whole assault sending the fleeing player to draw an uncontrollable number of adds. Would ruin just about any chance of a coordinated assault.

Agreed, also for the fear affects to work, the game would actually have to take control of the monster player character for a short time as it makes them run away which is just completely impractical, my solution would simply be, make fear on monster players work like a short stun i.e. they are paralised with fear, or in the case of bards arrow which also does damage and adds 1 to focus, at least let us fire it even if its not going to have the fear affect.
