An Experiment for the Devs

I'd like for you guys to try this little exercise. Try being restrained so that you can't move anything at all. Then let people throw paper at you. Out of 100 or so, count the number that you're able to actually dodge.

I hypothesize that you'll successfully dodge right around 0 percent.

So why the **** can the AI dodge so often when they're stunned and completely unable to move?

    And "soon" could mean August, given other things that were going to get fixed "soon".

    You can also call a stunned person to assist, negating the assist. That's another fix on the list.
    Stun seems to be having an identity crisis.

    They also confirmed to fix that issue, soon.

    You didn't specify whether the paper was a crumpled sheet, made into a plane, etc... I'm pretty sure they could successfully "dodge" a thrown, unfolded sheet. :p

    Or be restrained so that you can't move anything at all. Then have a bunch of pantless men stand in a circle around you...bet you can start dodging now.

    Wait until stunned characters can't Dodge and watch the stun team meta ensue. I bet you'll be complaining then too.

    Yeah, "it's another fix on the list" meant it was on the Devs list of already known.

    Maybe Daka, Dooku, Luke, RG, and Phasma. Seems too slow.

    If we are going with the paper ball being thrown at a tied up person... can you still miss? A lot of people suck at aiming and so throwing could still result in a miss (not necessarily a dodge :) )
