Given that soft CC effects like chill and cripple will be allowed to trigger their respective traits against defiant bosses, despite it not actually effecting the boss, will we similarly be able to “Interrupt” enemies by using hard crowd control effects on defiant bosses during their attack animations in order to trigger our traits that apply on interrupts, even if the defiance bar prevents it from actually stunning them?

This is a great question, and hoping we can get an answer!

We’ve got a lot of interrupt traits that are very powerful. Triggering them on every interrupt opportunity might be overpowered (would that be 3x interrupts on our dazing shatter?)… but it would be underpowered/disappointing to have 0 effect outside of a hit to the defiance bar.
