empowering stun?
 
Well, my fighter is 100% pure meatshield, and as such, my 3 most used skills are taunt, bone slicer, and stun. bone slicer and stun are the two i would use to keep alive (lower mob's DPS so he cant outdamage my pots+stones/the clerics)

bone slicer has a 20second buff effect and 15 second cool time, so thats no big deal. Taunt has a 5 second effect and 20 second cool time.

just wondering if anyone's empowered cool time and buff time on stun, and if so, how much does each point take off/add on the time? I'm trying to figure out if it would be worth the empowerment

you can just "try" it in the empowerment box, see the changes should you apply it, and not hitting complete button so it does not record the changes. I was thinking the same as well about stun.. but i cant see what's ahead, i mean like higher spell that is better to be empowered later on..

..I find that increasing the buff time as in the stun time is somewhat useful when trying to escape. That's just me though..

i do the opposite of escape. i run headfirst into 5 mobs and hope the clerics are paying attention.

i'm not sure whether to use my skill points on stun or wait. i know fighters learn devastation which is stun+aoe but thats not for a while, i'll have built up more skill points by then.

I'm more inclined to reducing the snearing kick cool down time, that way we can hold agro and manage better while tanking multiple monster, or maybe reducing the sp cost for that..

If you want to pump a stun skill i suggest u wait till level 43 to improve Devastate

Devastate
-Aoe stun
-Aoe HIGH DAMAGE
- high mp cost
- same stun time
- Whenever this skill is used, concussive charge will have to RECHARGE TOO.

@ vtoq: don't fighters learn demoralizing shout later? which is basically an AOE taunt. seems like i'd be nerfing my higher level abilities by pumping low level skills

@ rokaraged: i was hoping a more established fighter type like you would reply. that helps to confirm i should just save my skill points for later.
