Brine King pantheon just doesn't work

So I'm doing an Essence Drain build. I have over 4k life, 1,2k energy shield, Mind over Matter with nearly 2k mana.

The second I get hit, I get stunned, no matter how much damage the hit deals. If there's a pack nearby, I get stun locked into place until I die. Can't cast shit, no ED or Flame Dash to to get out.

Energy shield is supposed to give a 50% chance to avoid stun? Nope.

Stuns are supposed to be based on damage VS total life? Nope.

Brine King pantheon is supposed to prevent being stunned more than once every two seconds? Fuck no.

Oh, and Temporal Chains aura + Wither totem doesn't slow at all. Not even by a damn percent.

I love thise game, but bullshit like this makes me wanna punch a dev in the teeth.

The way you say that makes me think you think the stuns are based off more than the 4000 life you have. Just because you can survive a hit of much more than 4000 since you also have ES and mana to absorb some of the damage doesn't mean you don't get stunned based on the life portion of that. The Mind over Matter builds I've played have been susceptible to stuns.

The pantheon should keep you from getting stun locked though unless the duration of the stun is longer than the immunity period.

2xShimmeron.... stunning yourself could be the problem.

Hate to have low faith in you, but I suspect that you simply don't realise how short of a time 2 seconds is... note that stuns last .35 second by default, so Brine King only gives you 1.65 seconds of "immunity" to act according to your need. Factor in human reaction time of ~0.2 and you have 1.45 seconds, or less than 1 and a half seconds, in order to actually do things unfettered.

I've always found Brine King to perfectly allow me to escape a dangerous potentially-stunlocking situation with the ~1.5 seconds it gives me. Don't know for sure why our experiences would differ. IF you can capture video evidence of being stunned twice within 2 seconds, maybe you can file a bug report with as much context info as you can for the devs to figure out.

Two problems... one, Damage over Time does not stun. Two, I'm pretty sure you were looking at the wrong character. Original poster mentions Essence Drain build and the dual shimmeron character is pretty clearly a lightning build :P

did you check your latency? maybe it's your connection. Put on a chayula and test it out. If you are still getting "stunned" then it's your connection.
