Eh; thought I'd post my 2 cents in here.. but did SoE stealth buff legshot3?

I was power levelling my buddy today (dueling another guy.. he healed.. he was working up med skill) and use a cripple on him for 1.4k damage (yea in pvp..) incapped him .. he got back up.. he had full action..

Long story short.. using Legshot3 on him. .every hit seemed to stun. I thought it might of been the gun type or something bizzare.. I switched between a dxr6. .elite.. and a lazer .. legshot3 stunned almost every time (same consistancy as wildshot1 anyhow..)

Now for my question.. if legshot3 has stun .. what good does that make the wildshot lines? (omitting wildshot2 which is ae) .. just thought it was odd that..

#1 This didn't make any patch notes that I'm aware of..

#2 that an equal level pool specific ability would have the same effect as an equal tier'd random pool.

Just messed up.. SoE's been pullin alot of stealth changes latley.. and it's been noticeable..

anyone else notice this change?

For me, once i land the stun effect it stays for about 30 seconds or so i think. I dont know the significance of legshot3 landing stun everytime u hit the person because my legshot2 always lands, maybe i'm missing something. Stun simply cuts damage by a certain % and you can notice this on mobs especially, not players as much, but that seems to be the effect.

Its always had a stun effect to my knowledge. Its not everytime but I would say 90% of the time legshot3 does stun.

Yea seems to about 90% of the time stun .. I'd say that's accurate. .I'm just wondering what good/use is wildshot now?

I believe stun also prevents posture changes - at least I always seem to have trouble sitting when I'm stunned.

I find this odd because I had the exact opposite results yesterday against a stormtrooper. My Legshot 2 would stun him but my Legshot 3 would just do damage. Maybe both can stun just L3 has a better chance to do it, and I just had some odd results. I certainly didn't scientifically test it but I swear in that battle only L2 did stun the ST.
