Calling it stun immunity is a lie. It only works when a stun attack comes from the frontal cone. Ogres can still be stunned from the back or the side.

It does not prevent interruption on spell cast. Ogres can still be pushed out of a spell. They can still be stunned out of a spell from the back or the side.

There may be once or twice in the life of your character where it actually makes a difference. Those once or twice moments could be huge, or they could be insignificant.

There are other racials that offer just as much versatility like AC bonus or regen or sneak or hide or faction or even forage for the time where your cleric is out of food but for some reason you have a stack of water pods.

Summary: don't pick a character just for ogre frontal stun immunity.

And bash doesn't always stun, regardless of race. Don't know what the percentages are, but bash has a chance to stun. It also has a chance to interrupt without stunning (though irrelevant for warriors) and a chance to do literally nothing other than the damage it deals. FSI was really powerful before these changes, when bash was just always a stun and had no built-in interrupt besides the stun. Now even non-ogres can take a bash without getting stunned/interrupted, and ogre casters can get interrupted by bash. Just not as often.
