Just tested this and maybe I missed a post about it but now basi will proc tempest defense. That is really the most important stun in the game imo, and now it finally is treated as a regular stun.

This is huge imo if there was ever a trait I would go deep for it was this I am probably going to run this now.

A single trait should not counter an elite skill

A bug that needs to be fixed IMHO

Actually, it’s a GM trait, and also it was patched to be included like this in the notes. How it worked previously was a bug, now it’s as intended.

Elite skills aren’t godmode utilities, they can be stopped if you use the right counter. Necro you can steal their stability on lich form, plague form and cc em, guardians you can cc them so they can’t use their tomes, mind you there are a few elites you can’t counter, but they are short and mostly work as a clutch without a HUGE difference in changing a fight. The above examples are only a few I can think of off the top of my head.

Using active counters to argue for our passive counter isn’t going to fly here

A single GM AIR TRAIT that is not on cooldown SHOULD counter a stun.

it just doesn’t counter a stun but I’ve observed bad warriors wasting thier stability on it. it’s a pretty underrated trait.

Says you but I disagree since I don’t want a repeat of the Ele meta

Ele was great but I feel we’ll get an influx of fotm players after this…

It’s intended, and it’s in the changelog:

Search for Tempest Defense.

I think that’s it for the thread right?

Since you don’t get it, I’ll put it bluntly – When Ele damage goes back to Beta, you have my permission to complain about OP… maybe.
