cheap mez protection

How is the protection from powers like health, acrobatics etc? Is it worth having or should I take my chances and get something else?

Erm, tbh, pretty rubbish.

Acrobatics is good for resisting knockback, but that toggle is easily knocked off IMO.

Only just talking bout acrobatics. Ive got it on all my chars and if you use SJ you may as well have it. Protects from 1 non boosted hold, (though not controller crit), and good vs knockdown/knockback.

Think health reduces sleep time rather then resists it. Maybe ppl should use sleep more in pvp but so far ive never once been slept, doubt its down to health though so you may just want to get swift and hurdle.

Hope that helps, and as always could well be wrong .

Edit: Tired atm and only other one I can think of off the top of my head is assault vs placate and confuse is it? I get cunfused easily in game and out and since placate tends to follow AS which toggle drops it probably isnt worth having assault for those protections.

Edit2: Just checked its taunt and placate assault helps protect from. For corrupter vs taunt may be worth getting if it works.

I find the mag 1 hold resist very good , it can resist one hold , most tanks , blasters and defenders , have one hold power , so in those 1 vs 1 fights acrobatics realy shines , even vs trolers its gives me some extra seconds before the trolers hold recharge !

It has no stunt/disorient protection so vs MA , sonics, EM , etc... its useless !

knockback = ~2 free hits without being unable to fight back or run away!

Sleep , is the less usefull of the holds , it last a long time , and healt wont make any difrence, sinse im always hit before sleep runs out !
