Stun in Tantel is currently a base protection, and is thus both upped by NS layers and Janta hides.... With the loot you have there a helmet with 75% base will be the outcome, and thus you stand a very good chance of a 90% slice, and thus 90% STUN.
The downside will be energy will be special, and in Tantel it does not get effected by upping base it will be stuck at around 30 to 40% I think, but you will possible 90% to everything else but Light Saber...
I can confirm that I have just checked the Tantel helm in my backpack and it is special to energy, vuln to light saber, base to everything else.

Ya it's only Tantel that has base protection against stunt. Only problem is 1 layer.

Does not matter in this case that it can only take 1 layer in the segment... The values are something like this...
23% base from Tantel alone
34% base from NS layer
18% base from janta
= 75% base...
Make sure you use the best AS on the server, as this baby will rock.

stun is part of the base....
I want to try some 3% and 7% attempt for like a 40+ stun helmet

My own experiment results...
I made a Tantel Helm using an Energy Layer to bump the base up a little...
-4% Base, 7% Energy, 314 Integrity, 14 / 14 / 14 HAM
I maxed the segment on base...
- 9% Base, 12% Energy, 633 Integrity, 21 / 23 / 21 HAM
Then I crafted the helm...maxing base of course...
- 29% Energy, 26% Base (Kinetic, Blast, STUN, Heat, Cold, Acid, Electricity), 13376 Condition, 30 / 33 / 117 HAM
Now...figure in your loot pieces...
...take out the energy layer (-4% Base)
...add in the Legendary NS layer (+34% Base)
...add in the Janta Hide (+18% Base)
26 - 4 + 34 + 18 = 74% (And it can be sliced, too)
...assuming your Tantel ingredients are of similar quality as they are here on Naritus
Now, there's no real way to verify it will work before trying. There may be some built-in cap on stun protection we don't know about, but I would say you have the makings of a fantastic helm (Though the condition will be a bit low). Too bad you're not on Naritus, or I'd do it for you. Go find a good armorsmith and best of luck!!!
...Send me a PM to let me know how it turns out.

34% base effect legendary ns layers.
18% base effect legendary janta hides
Tantel helmet.
This helmet has special protection to stun as I am told.
With these components an AS should be able to reach 60-70% base I would assume. If this were possible could the elusive 90% stun helmet be created with a lucky slice???

This is a very good idea to deal with all the stun damage out there. I would suggest that you hotkey another helmet because the last thing you need is someone switching from their jawa when they realise they are doing no damage to their T21 and blowing your head off.

you can't...the max on stun is i think 45% ...stun is a special protection and has nothing to do with base%
