this is so sad. a sizeable portion of the community might quit the game over this. anyone who hates being stunned continually by estoc spam and katana running attack (and rats and dogs in PvE). at least tell us what these “situations” are From, because you’re losing fan base over this.

I hear a lot of “git gud” about this, which is stupid.
