can we not have perma stuns?

[Machawitz]

i'm so sick of getting killed because one move, often one's that don't even deal damage trap you in place for a hit which traps you in place for another and another and another... even with the temporal mantle, it can't save you, if it even decides to activate at all. and even with maxed out armor, i can still be one shot for no good reason. so if i don't play a perfect game, i just lose because one hit often means death for no good reason. you can't roll out, you're probably stunned and you're going to die. the behemoth is the worst fight i've ever done. a single hit often kills you even if it doesn't chain into the winds or him just rushing you down. i can counter 50 attacks in a row and the single one i don't will be the death of me. that's not balanced or fair.

that's not even counting lunastra's AOE that is a literally a perma stun with a burn with maybe 2 seconds of warning which is never enough to run. if you are too close when it goes off without warning, you are dead, no second chances.

nature can be so unforgiving right?

i take it you died one too many times then wrote this review in a fit of rage.

Monsters should have a diminishing return on stuns , i havent encountered this issue but i can see alot of spamming cc from monster like they know dealing psychological damage > physical damage .

For behemoth, get better gear. Etc, not fresh out of HR 16 gear. Like actually slot health boost 3, and augment your armor into the 450+ def range.

For luna, try the fire mantle. Or farcaster immediately.

The nova is only really a problem with AT Luna. I recommend gearing for wind pressure resist, so you safely spam the superman dive without getting staggered, or simply walk out of the area. You can survive non-AT Luna's nova by spamming astera jerky.

in the wake of her nova, we call it Crispy Bacon.

getting caught by a roared and then wombo comboed is one of the ways many people die. here is a video of a guide on how to roll through roars. takes some practice but being able to do it well will save you a ton of carts.

im spoiled in my friends group one of our group always brings a HH with some form of earplugs on it. xD

If you're getting oneshot by Behemoth, you're not ready for the fight.

Wind Proof 5, Kushala armor bonus, or the HH melody for Luna's nova.

If you're getting stunned all the time, you're getting hit too often and need to work on your defensive game. That, or start slotting in stun res.

If you're getting hit by the roar -> attack combo, try running a maxed out earplugs charm, as the only roars that are capable of comboing directly into an attack are considered small roars and will get cancelled by Earplugs 3. Alternatively, learn to dodge roars, it just takes a lot of practice.

Err.. you can get Lv3 stun resist.

Wind Proof 5

failed to read
he is ranting about behemoth wombo combos
stuff like getting hit by the bodyslam and getting killed through a following attack like a meteor

wind proof 3 is enough for lunas normal wingattacks and windproof5 won't help against the luna nova you need the kushala set bonus or hornbuff for this.

Have you tried dodging

[Macho Chunko]

Seems it's a clear case of needing to get gud.

Stun resistance > Your whining

Getting good > Your Whining

The 'good reason' is because you got hit. Don't get hit.

i can counter 50 attacks in a row and the single one i don't will be the death of me. that's not balanced or fair.

Game is meant to be hard, working as intended. Practice more.

Well said. Honestly, I never understood all those people who expect the end game content to be forgivable in any way. It's the end game content, it's supposed to be hard and unforgiving... Even though a stun mechanic is anything but that. You can literally get rid of it completely by investing in an armor skill. How casual can one person get?
