Guild Wars 2

In this thread, let’s discuss alternatives for Defiant.
I’m also of the idea that bosses should not be volleyballs so I’ll try to not make that happen.

My current idea is as follows:

- Defiant stacks to 5 max, and loses 1 stack per 5 seconds.
- Every control skill used adds 2 stacks
- Every stack reduces effect of control skills by either 20% range (knockback) or 20% duration (fear, knockdown, stun)
- at 5 stacks, boss is immune to all Control

This design allows for pugs to use control, but also for teams to have skill. At the same time, control does not become a tool to shut down a boss (except for control skills with 10 second duration, do these exist?)
