Why is stunning less effective on counter characters.

Why does my Palpatine never stun characters like Fives, Dooku, or Kanan? It's annoying when Dooku just takes slight damage, and stuns my Palpatine afterwards. Is this a feature, bug, or just bad luck.

    Potency is the key, a lot of potency.

    My R2 is at 99% potency, he hardly ever misses a stun.

    Because you only pay attention to characters not being stunned when they counter you right back...

    i had my r2 in a resistance squad meaning about 150% potency for me and he still wouldn't stun 30% of the time. so you must be lucky

    I run him in Resistance squad also, so with their bonus he is about 149-150% potency, more reliable stuns than Finn for sure.

    Try using Dengar for Tenacity down, CUP for stun, and JKG to keep them ability blocked. Use Chewie to take any hits if they happen to not get stunned.

    JK. Don't do this. It is funny though.

    Should I also use Talia for health?

    Dooku and Fives are higher tenacity, but also EP only has a 70% chance to stun anyway. So even with high potency, you only have a 0.7*0.85 = 0.595 chance to stun.

    That makes sense, the tenacity. Thanks!
