I have to say, Shock Squall is underachieving at best. While the stun effect does last longer than most forms of stun at earlier levels (Head Butt, Stun, etc) it is still about the same duration of Chaotic Strike, same time to get it ready, and not really that great compared to the other stun moves coming in this update (Thunderbolt and Sudden Lunge from BLU). Unless the duration is improved, I don't see this BP being used at all, even for solo situations (Shock Spikes are still the best for stunning because it procs a lot more often).

Soothing Ruby can't really be tested because of the limited number of effects that can be erased depending on the magic skill. And the test server has the ability set anyway.

In all seriousness, Shock Squall needs to be more powerful in order to justify it being considered at all. Neither nerfing Sudden Lunge nor making the duration determined by skill level will make this worthwhile if the duration is less than 15 seconds on average.
