Stunned when bash misses...
 

I'm consistently getting stunned by mobs when their bash misses. Is this classic/velious or a bug?

An example would be something like this:

A skeleton tries to bash you but misses
A skeleton hits you 17 points of damage

That's not from my combat log before some nit-picker complains. Just an example of what happens to me often. One round of a hit+bash. The bash misses but I still get stunned. This happens A LOT. Often enough I'm here posting about it on the forums.

Classic or bug that I should be reporting?

NPCs have a chance on each hit *from behind* to make a stunning blow. It's a recent classic change.

However I *think* they are also getting a chance to get a stunning blow on a miss. I haven't got proof though, I only thought I saw it once or twice. Could use more investigation.

I didn't know about the stuns from behind. I'm always getting stunned like crazy while running. I've always chalked it up to being bashed though. I never checked the combat log for that.

I'm still confident I've been getting stunned from the front though as well though. I don't have proof or anything. But I've found myself wishing I was an ogre for frontal stun immunity a bunch of times... then I notice the bash missed but I was still stunned and being very confused+annoyed.

Just being hit from the front can stun you as well. Unless you're an ogre.

Are they stunning you or just interrupting your spells? Because those are different things.

if its hitting from the back, its accurate, theres a chance of stun called Stunning Blow patched in the last patch. Noticeable alot more when you have a train/swarm behind you.

Also wondered if it was a bug, but devs confirmed classic.
