Just out of curiousity does this not seem like an unusually short stun time for a 41 point hit? I know it was just a wrist shot but no messaging about it breaking the stun through some sort of manuever and was able to mind jolt me within 3 seconds. Par for the course for these critters?

You nock a fiery orange faewood arrow fletched with plain white feathers in your long bow.
You are no longer hidden.
You fire a fiery orange arrow at a festering taint!
AS: +455 vs DS: +298 with AvD: +30 + d100 roll: +19 = +206
... and hit for 41 points of damage!
Shot pierces a wrist!
The festering taint is stunned!
The arrow sticks in a festering taint's left hand!
Roundtime: 4 sec.

R>hide
...wait 1 seconds.
R>hide
A festering taint points a putrid hand at you!
CS: +379 - TD: +302 + CvA: -9 + d100: +74 == +142
Warding failed!
You feel a numbing jolt reverberate through your skull! You are stunned.

I think that's just a 1 round stun, could be wrong though as it's been a while.

Stuns have nothing to do with total damage, raw damage, or crit damage. Stuns are defined independently for each crit rank and body part location. My guess is a one round stun.

Hands have some of the weakest stuns, never count on them. You, on the other hand, (no pun intended, yuk yuk) were stunned for 42 seconds.

Thats why you should be shooting arrows from the shadows. ;)

No matter what I can't get my TD high enough to ward(that TD is with101,107,401,406,414). I finally unstunned just in time for the curse it cast on me to make me drop my bow and then take a shot from a gremlock to finish me off. Did I mention I hate OTF?
Guess I can't bitch too much I have had it so easy from level 1-80.
