    This would make the Q7 set almost useless in a boss fight. After getting stunned, bosses are immune to stun for a considerable amount of time. I have a relatively weak lvl 55 toon and still only stun a PW boss 2 to 3 times. Also, if you are in a group, only one person would be able to use the q7 effect so a group of q7 users who had been playing together for awhile would be affected much more. In order to make this nerf possible, the time bosses are immune to stuns would have to be significantly reduced.

    That's good actually because it would finally encourage people to build various setups and not going for q7 only.

    Please think of set bonuses of other sets too. Some of them cannot be used in a boss fight at all, like those that get triggered after killing x monsters in x seconds...


    Another option is to trigger the set buff with a hit, not a stun, but there would have to be a cooldown for the buff. The way it is now is just ...crazy.

    It seems to me that the main issue is that everyone is running around with dragan and q7. Nerfing either of these sets would probably help with this issue, but it would infringe on "player power fantasy" which is the main reason I play. Sure, I don't want to be so over powered that inf 3 is too easy, but I play on Painful and Excruciating, so that will probably never happen. I don't think we should give the devs an excuse when we ask for multiple balanced sets. They should take the time to buff the existing ones and make more powerful diverse sets. Why not make more sets that do elemental damage??

    I completely agree that the sets based on killing mobs are practically useless. I really wish they would give a massive buff to the balor/corruption set as I think the armor is effing cool on the DK.
