Larian Studios Forums Divinity: Original Sin 2 Divinity - Original Sin 2 - General Status effects and new armor system

Ya thats one of the things I've noticed more as I play. Early in a battle CC is more difficult to pull off. Later in a battle when everyones armor is gone its basically 100% success with CC. Which makes CC spam worse then DOS1 later and for longer battles.
Add to the fact that theirs plenty of abilities with CC.

For example in when leaving fort joy where the paladin is 3 of my guys got bunched up with 3 of theirs. The ground was wet from a combo of Lohses ice spell and fire to melt it. Somebody did some electrical attack causing all 6 guys to be stunned for multiple rounds.

My character was a knight going after 2 archers so they didn't get stunned. But the point is I don't think the new system is perfect.

But rather then somebody resisting the stun at some point they all sat there continuing to be in stun round after round which is bad.

So cool this discussion early on is good since some re balancing needs to be done.

Also i wish for realism shields would block.
