Fix this broken stun system
-
Currently a stun removes all defences, this has lead to a player having no chance to fight back. THIS IS NOT FUN . I know people who have quit pvp altogether over this system, Pvp should not be about who can stun first, there is no skill in that. This would also go part way to fixing the bh system were a bh can just run up and stun you and kill you within 3s. My suggestion is changing the stun so it dos not remove defence but instead does not allows to use skills for the duration maybe 3s ,like the mob in axkva min that puts your skills on cooldown.

The only problem with your stun change is, stun is the only thing that works in a chance at hitting damage on a big defense builds. I have to land a pistol whip to even get a chance at putting on some chunk damage to a build that is usually "untouchable". Without a stun, my Last Ditch may miss or only hit for 1k damage. I'd be open to an alternative or compromise.

Can you not see that this stun wars is actively hurting pvp. Most of the eu players I know don't want to pvp because the stun. I agree it feels great being the one to kill those harder to kill players really easily, but I've seen a rank 6 jedi which takes months to get, get killed in 3 seconds by a pistol whip. Why should a bh that just specked into a stun be able to do this! That's not right. Generally if a person is really tanky they would not be able to kill you and vice vera (that's if you have a balanced build). This should be a partial a game of skill and your build, my suggestion would still allow for you to be able to kill just you have to time it at the right time (when they are low hp), not being able to do any skills for 3-5 seconds is still huge in a fight. Please upvote if you agree with anything I said.

We've made large amounts of QoL around stuns, dizzy , roots and snares. We had a whole update dedicated to this. Some builds are counters to other builds. Not every build will be a 1:1 balanced fair fight in any MMO ever. Speaking of MMOs, you may want to avoid WoW Arena. We by far have a much better CC system in terms of being locked down and not able to do things.
Just remember its always rock, paper, scissors.

We had a situation developing a few months ago where people were chaining multiple stuns together to really shut down any chance of reaction, which was pretty frustrating. We've added a recourse to Pistol Whip, Kick, and Flashbang so that can't be done anymore. While Pistol Whip and Kick do prevent most passive defenses, you can still get reactive heals. I've also got in the habit of keeping my health full, and rotating certain defensive maneuvers pro-actively to prevent dying to stun, but its definitely pretty lethal.
For me, one frustrating thing about stuns is that you sometimes have a hard time realizing your stunned (at least with Pistol Whip and Kick) as there isn't an obvious indication other than me smashing my buttons harder and harder with no avail :LOL:. If those two had the same effect as Flash Bang where it put your toolbar buttons on timer for the duration instead of just being unresponsive, at least we would be aware right away!
