had that too. It is reaaally annoying. I find, a good trick with her..use Oranges instead of lucks. Cap out (or get some) resistance, and LET her you. To break the placates, so you can actually fight back.

Another nitpick: mez protection isn't supposed to even suppress - but if you're mezzed the other defensive toggles do. That way you drop below the stacking point where your mez toggle got overwhelmed and start acting again rather than just get chain mezzed to death. You should still have the same level of mez protection, it would just be reduced significantly.

Either way, the stun durations on those grenades is just plain silly.

So, hey. Let me turn this into a question : Is it worthwhile to invest in mez resistance on a tanker? I mean we get 20% easily enough with the 3% resist psi global (forget which set offhand), and there are ways to build up to 50% without making *enormous* sacrifices. But everything has a cost. Worth it or no?

Well, that may depend. Are you spending all your time in iTrials on a set with no Fear or Confuse protection? If so... mayyyybe.

But it's probably more worthwhile focusing on other bonuses that do better at keeping you alive. If you take a look here you'll see that not that many sets lend themselves to a lot of mez protection. At least, not ones you might be worried about grabbing (or can slot more than once). It's probably better to focus on defense to avoid the mez.
