Unwavering Stance , hefty unit, stun threshold sucks

playing melee mace build attacks are slow -
enemies could easily interrupt your attacks with stuns
got hefty unit providing 3 stun threshold per strength With strength stacking
had well over +1200 stun threshold + max res & armor damage reduction
think this would be enough
still getting stun often and interrupting attacks - feels bad
Got Unwavering stance to double my stun threshold & removes dodge roll
Finally have enough stun threshold rarely getting stunned that feels good
New Problem - no dodge roll
easily surrounded, when surrounded cant escape can only trade blows with monsters
cant avoid some attacks because its design around using dodge roll
some of those attacks do massive damage - just have to yolo it
even with move speed boots still feels bad cant avoid some attacks
slows & freezes are brutal and cant avoid some of them
some my attacks have huge wind up times cant cancel the attack now without dodge roll, your committed once you start the skill - cause many deaths

Possible solution
unwavering stance gives stun threshold additional features like-
stun threshold providing the ability to push mobs out of the way
at high levels stun threshold allowing you push though packs of mobs
Stun threshold providing threshold for slows & immobilizers
Stun threshold providing some kind defense layer for increase survival -
Reduce damage by % on none stunning hits
or gain stun threshold as armor against all damage on none stunning hits

Conclusion -
I do like this different way of playing. I don't want to see dodge roll added to unwavering stance. I just want other ways to deal with these problems. Also adding other ways to take advantage of stun threshold stacking. Otherwise its lot investment just to be stun resistance.

side note-
Seeing how much stun threshold is require to be effective. I think high amounts of stun threshold on gear with passives is worthless. I think having it on gear alone should be noticeable difference.
