Same! Uninstalled today. People say “JUST DODGE ROLL” well that’s hard when they are shooting from 7 grouped up range mobs staggering the shots, and if you do dodge roll , god forbid there are any. Melee monsters nearby that will run up and start stunning you with melee, now you’re stuck! You can’t dodge roll everything, then you end up. On the edge of the map and body blocked. Now you can’t attack or cast spell because stuns! You’re dead. Try harder

Well they're giving bad advice. "Just dodge roll" works in 1v1, you need something else in 1v40. Melee classes have a mass slow skill. All classes can easily reach a wall skill. All classes also have jump skills like Leap Slam or Lightning Warp. It's also easy to get access to an ally, be it minion, companion or totem. The best way to not get stunned is to never get hit - you have the tools, use them.

Seriously, why are you letting ranged mobs hit you when you can put a wall in the way? Or if you insist on getting to melee range, why aren't you running up with Shield Charge so you block their shots?

bro every. thing. stuns.

That means your gear is terrible: you're not investing in Max Life to stop those stuns. Also see above for not getting hit in the first place.


Stun is catching a lot of new players off, it probably warrants a tutorial on how to avoid getting stunlocked.

1880 for SOK at level 66 is way, way too low for a melee build. Assuming your strength actually is 350 (gives 700 life) and taking into account you get 12 max life per level and you start at 28 (total 28 + 65*12 = 808), you invested at most 1880-1508 = 372 life from gear and nodes (even though SOK has access to one of the biggest life nodes in the ascendancy tree).

Stun threshold increases are percentage-based, so they're not going help diddly squat without the max life to back it up if you have no other means of mitigation (evasion/block/other stuff that has already been pointed out). That would be difficult in a *normal* waystone, let alone in a waystone with a double-stun affix.

Stun is fine where it is.

In PoE1 we had Unwavering Stance to mitigate it. Cant evade attacks but cant be stunned. Can block, Can soak the dmg coz we had HP NODES, Can mitigate with armor and phis dmg reduction, Can mitigate with Endurance charges, Can mitigate with Fortify. You could play as a proper Warrior Class !!! Tank hits and hit enemies without being stunned like a little girl.

In PoE2 we have Unwavering Stance. Removes light stun but also removes Dodge Roll skill that the WHOLE GAME IS BUILT AROUND ! Why not the same evade chance ? We have no HP pool to soak the dmg! We have no Fortify! We have no endurance charge phys reduction! Is is an impossibility to play as Proper melee toon.
You cant tank anything. You HAVE TO SOSGE ROLL LIKE A LITTLE GIRL EVEN IF YOU ARE A TITAN!!! Little girly Titan, go on now, use that dodge roll like a good boy!

Also enemies push you around but you cant even push the smallest spider wit ha shield charge... THE MIGHTY TITAN !!!!

There is no fluidity. Combat is JANK in all aspects outside of Boss fights.
Because in a boss fight you have a regulated environment where you don't have 70 things shooting you and chainstunning you.

Tell me you don't play SOK without telling me you don't play SOK^^^

I also have hundreds of stun threshold from my shield and other gear that I wear. And yes, I do already know that stun threshold percentage only affects the base amount you have from hp and stun threshold on equipment. You're going to choke on those words very soon if you haven't already! Mark my words!

You are either lying about your stats, lying about the affixes on the waystone in your previous post, or grossly exaggerating the amount of times you get stunned. These mechanics are not random.

The people telling this guy to get better gear are a hoot. As if you can find upgrades in this game. LOL. You all crack me up.

Vendors haven't given me anything better, and I've barely been given any currency to craft any gear that drops. That includes the gear I've had for so long. Like how is it that I can have half of my gear with only 3-4 mods at level 66? That's just crazy levels of crazy man.

Ah, another player who doesn't look at the vendors. I get where it comes from, you never look at vendors in other ARPGs. Such pre-conceived notions hinder you in PoE 2.
