‘’Immune to Crowd Control. Crowd Control skills remove stacks of Defiant’’
I know it doesnt say it does, Nor is it mentioned on the ’’Unshakable’’ Buff that pairs with it, (But during Bounty Hunts esecially) Once [Defiant] Stacks the target seems to become incredibly tough and attack damage seems as though it drops to below 10…

Ive tested this with 15 people and with 30+ people so i’ve tried at both ends of the event scalling, Even though its easier with 15 people due to event scalling, But the same effect tends to happen.

Ive also read the easiest way to combat Defiant is to remain out of range so you are not counted on the buffs, Is there any truth to this? If so what is the range… is it a distance or are you counted once you make a hit on the target?

Defiant does not effect damage or anything. It only stops you from using CC skills until the defiant stacks are removed. I think the bounty you are talking about is Half-baked. His got a bug with his shield where you can’t remove it and you do very little damage. To beat this boss you need to keep the group small maybe 5-10 people. 10+ makes it difficult as his health scales with the group and makes it near impossible.
