With dodging while stunned (finally) no longer a thing, I foresee a lot more stunning characters in PvP. This makes me happy for several reasons. People are going to start loading their squads with Da...

A meta shift won't really happen solely because stunned toons can no longer dodge. The initial stun still needs to land. So evasion is still a reliable way to ignore stun. Also, Rex removes and prevents stuns. Rex is a super solid toon used at top levels.

However, modding may play a role in a meta shift. Not sure how it will work out, but a change in arena comes from mods, not stunned toons failing to dodge.

Not solely, but it will have an impact. I can see a lot of the stHan's being switched out for Daka.

I guess I lied. After taking a closer look, there are still a few Daka's running in our top 10, unless they were just switched out today?

They have always been there on our shard.

And I guess really don't see an impact from it. Daka still needs to land the stun. Evasion is still a solid defensive tactic. St Han is probably a better option than daka. Team wide TM is hard to ignore. St Han is only really bad vs b2. But so are most all taunting tanks.

Though, you can see our shard doesn't use much dodge because it's not as good (or bad) as it seems. There are currently only 4 in our top 25 because Rex and phasma simply out preform evasion leaders overall.
