    on mobs that are subject to Stun you can turn a 6 second stun into a 12 second stun, but only every 3 minutes; which is really every other dungeon trash mob group fight. [/SIZE]
    Thanks for the Holmgang tip. I am going to use this further in 2 ways:

    1. When i side step an aoe, i will use Holmgang as a 6 second stun and possibly using brutal swing after. Sidestepping and this can give you a real breather and help with hate mgt of healer.

    2. Sneak up on mobs that i pull and use Holmgang from behind and stun. When a pack of 3 to 4 arr attacking, nullifying the first mob for upto 12s seems good.

    The above will only work if your recommendation works. Will try tomorrow, but optimistic about this helping avoid dmg for periods of time.

    .

    yea the holmgang is key in some good fights

    take the WAnderer's Palace. Boss one and Boss two are 100% resistant to Stun; but not Holmgang

    Boss one always toward the last 35%ish of Life does 2 or 3 aoe directed at party. This is bad for party...but good for you since you have at least 8-12 sec right there where you're not being hit. However you can holmgang for either your or the party benefit.

    Options 1
    Save your own Ass the trouble: after the Mob does the two aoe toward party reposition self outside his direct sight and lock him for 6 sec-- that's a total of 14-18 sec no HITS.

    Options 2
    Be the Hero: Lock him in place either before he starts his two WS cycles or inbetween them. He'll actually still attempt them even though you lock him in place...I don't remember if they are on target though??? Someone check and post a reply
