Looks like stonestance could be causing the NPCs bonus dmg to be added to all attacks instead of just primary hand attacks. This could cause you to get your ass handed to you if you stonestanced against a dual-wielding mob as their off-hand would be getting a damage bonus that it normally wouldn't.
As far as positioning against NTOV and Kael raid mobs. Well, stone stance would be reducing their damage by a huge amount because those mobs are going to be hitting for the high end of their variable damage range frequently against a monk which means the bulk of the mobs damage potential will be reduced by stonestance.
Once again, I'm just interpretting how I believe it's implemented here. This implementation would be based on how Kanras feels stonestance should work. If you feel that stonestance should be reducing total mob damage instead of mob damage before-bonus then you need to find some period specific evidence to prove this.
