@Srksii Considering people used speed hacks back in Season 0, it wouldn't surprise me if there's anti stun cheats, and there most likely are.

That Horizon wasn't suppose to be able to move like that for sure.

    Maybe I'm not seeing the clip right because the camera pans right after she takes the grenade, but that looks normal to me.  They removed the immediate stun from the arc stars like, two seasons ago?  The stun doesn't take effect until the grenade explodes.

    IIRC the slow from Caustic gas is a bit unreliable, like so much else in the game.

      @Srksii 

      Just like @pandareno1999 said; I am fairly sure that you arent being slowed (at least not more than a normal bullet hit) when you get stuck by an Arcstar; the slow effect comes at the exposition.

      And regarding the Caustic gas; It seems to me that the most pronounces slow effect for the enemy happened the first tick when they enter the gas, probably mainly because you lose all your current momentum. But when you are in the gas, I dont  think the slow effect is so strong that its impossible to "strafe and jump around like crazy". Its not like an arcstar slow and honestly, it would just be stupid if it was. When the blurred vision effect still was a thing, it pretty much was a guaranteed loss to fight a Caustic in the gas. Now its at least possible, even if you are in a huge disadvantage.

      Another thought:  It seems a bit unclear to me, after all of the various changes Caustic has had, exactly which effects the gas is currently supposed to have.  I'm not at all certain that there is supposed to be a slowing effect any longer.  A quick google search hints at not.

      @pandareno1999 Oh right... they did remove the impact arc star stun. I never really payed much attention when sticking people with one.
