What exactly does stun do..?

[Ripperzipper]

While playing as my berserker I have noticed that even when I manage to successfully stun any enemy whether a normal or boss, it just keeps smacking me in the face... so I gotta ask, how does stun work in this game?

-reduces movement speed 50%
-reduces attack power (ie damage dealt) by 70%
-sets some talents on cooldown

So although the boss can keep smacking you, he does less damage. If you want to avoid being hit altogether then step back, let him move, and then get a free hit against him since he moves so slowly.

Code: Select all

	long_desc = function(self, eff) return ("The target is stunned, reducing damage by 70%%, healing received by 50%%, putting random talents on cooldown and reducing movement speed by 50%%. While stunned talents do not cooldown."):format() end,

Maybe that line of text should be added to all stunning talents, or at least to the common rogue and zerker ones.
