First off, if this is the wrong section, I apologize, but general discussion looks like the right place for most threads to me.
I've been farming Lunaris temple, and the most annoying of issues has cropped up.
Kole has been stunning my CI character.
There's one problem with this:
I'm at a loss, and I'm not sure if there's some mechanic I'm missing, but it's very frustrating to get stunned by a boss that can kill me in two hits when an item I have says I'm immune to being stunned.
At first I reckoned it may have something to do with blocking attacks, but then I saw this line on the wiki ("If you cannot be stunned, the block animation will never play." link) but I'm not 100% sure if it's right, and it's also happening with me taking damage.
Can anyone shed some light on why Kole seems to be stunning me even though I'm immune to stuns? Is there some mechanic I'm missing?

You're immune to all stuns EXCEPT the stun dished out by kole's/ brutus'/ carnage's "GET OVER HERE" chain pull attack. It's really weird how it works.
My theory is that stun always lands to prevent massive desyncing.
Skip Kole. Seriously. I know it looks like a cool and worthy fight, but it isn't. He drops same shit what every blue pack in Lunaris 3 (same monster lvl), just more magics.

I guess that explains it. I should just skip Kole, then.
If so, you might be seeing the block mechanic, which is essentially the same effect as a stun.
It wont play the animation on a stun if you are immune.
I don't think the special attacks should stun if you are immune, it should be a bug.
Just enfeeble Kole and if you are a melee blind him and he should be cake since they nerfed his damage. Also make sure you have a maxed fire resist as his attack is basically an infernal blow.
I've got an issue with Kole too, that bastard, last time he was over at my place he ate all the peanuts in the bowl on the table and didn't even tell anyone that it needed to be refilled. Needless to say, went to watch a movie this evening and there was no peanuts in the bowl. I was very upset with him and proceeded to Heavy Strike him into oblivion.
Every time Kole has visited my place, my toilet drain was blocked, and my dog became pregnant.
Dear Maligaro,
I left my head in San Francisco, I lost my legs in Peru
My liver and kidney are on holiday in Sydney
And I am sending my Heart to you
--- Love, Malachai

He does pure physical. No elemental damage at all unless you're dealing with a map version with mods. He is surrounded by corpse exploding minions in Lunaris LvL 2 and his massive HP can make for a nasty surprise when you kill him.
