Her signature power - soul storm - ignores mez protection it seems. I suspect its working as intended.. 
Thankfully it has longish recharge.
Using def buffs so it will miss is an option.

She does hold you but she doesnt have to defeat you.

Poor old granite for a change aye, but when it comes to kiting recluse and scirroco its granite ftw! unless other tanks are end buffed.

I think the magnitude of soul storm is about 19 i'm not sure where i get my information from, the american forums maybe but yeah i tested for that with my empath jaqi and the stonetank called filfth (who when i asked him to kite mako it was done instantly the jammy bugger!)

Yeah, the recharge is definitely not longish...
Not that it matters, but Im thinking 60 
Just seen a stonetanker with rooted on get end drained by lord recluse i'm sure at one point stonetankers resists were better than that on test but i could be wrong.

Some information maybe already old news to some but not to others and if i help just one person with this then i am happy.
The AVs of RV I've done them all now live, i did them all on test too with small teams and big teams being sole tank etc and tried out different things even being suicidal to get to know them well, even on my own night after night in the early hours.I have done too many tests on test server with these AVs to think i know all there attacks, damage types of attacks etc, how to increase survivability with low debuffage available.
People might wonder what i was doing in the pillboxes taunting. Well those shields of the pillbox whilst the turrets exist offer +defence and with an empath keeping me perma forted i will get hit once in a blue moon by any AV.
YES that soulstorm can miss!
So in small teams with one tanker its truly a great place to be!
I kept taunting like a tauntbot to try and steal aggro my way and did quite abit but with other tankers its not easy to keep which is why when i get my respec i will 6 slot my taunt despite retiring.
Tanking upclose with the AVs does require a certain amount of debuffage in order for those around the tanker to survive the aoes and pbaoes and if people are in front of the AV's then the cones too. i dont like to play assuming that amount of debuffage is there but if its there its great to go melee.
In that +defence pillbox with enough defence and defence buffs to stack you have a high chance of survivability. To be able to kite from it and have attention only your way all the time would be perfect but unless you can out taunt and out taunt stack another tanker it isnt easy all the time to keep other people from being attacked.
Ghost widows soul storm drops any tanker but with enough defence it can miss, i just saw the build up to it and clicked unstoppable and she didnt kill me, i was too hard! and unstoppable cant be detoggled muahahaha. When it came to the crash i had adrenalin boost given to me just as the unstoppable buff was flashing and crashed lovely to resume tanking still being +def through fort and that shield. You could literally keep ghost widow for great lengths of time to the point of boredom like that once you have found the groove.
I have done too many tests on test server with these AVs to know all there attacks, damage types of attacks etc, how to increase survivability with low debuffage available.
Its not the only way and empaths arent the only great types of defenders around. Whilst on test i had almost one of each type of defender with me at different times (all except a trick archer) and they are all great. I still think teams with a storm defender dont need a tank.
My first time in the zone today i left in a mood because my method wasnt being truly put to the test i wasnt perma forted, and with 2 AV's on me, once the fort ran out i faceplanted just like that and soon after most everyone else who was fighting the 3rd AV got wiped because of it. The 2 AV's came round and got jiggy with it on them. Yes in that pillbox i was actually doing something.
So 2 points here really:
Additional defence can be gained from that pillbox shield should you need it.
Getting up in a lvl 54 AVs face as a tanker surrounded by the rest of team can lead to a team wipe should there be lack of debuffage. I believe all attacks have an increased range due to their level or something.
Word of warning at range scirroco and lord recluse could use a -end attack it helps to have an end buffer should it hit. If your a stonetanker dont worry.
Icetanks and Invulns are great versus ghost widow they have a good head start. hibernate and Unstoppable well timed are good. Her terrorise can stop you taunting so i had to ask much to my empaths friends amazement for clearmind. (I tried clearmind with my empath on test and soul storm still happened).
I cant say much about firetanks i havent seen one for long in test or the zone live yet.
Defense is scaleable if ya try and give yaself 90% defence then your survivability has increased a hell of alot should there be not enough debuffage.
I have done too many tests on test server with these AVs to know all there attacks, damage types of attacks etc, how to increase survivability with low debuffage available.
I got my badges from the zone so after stupid amounts of hours of total play i can retire shannon now once and for all ("finally") and get on with my other tankers who have to deal with the same bleep all over again.
