here soem contribution info:

definate facts:

1. Bash could Stun
2. Stun duration was GREATER than 0
3. Casting mob COULD recover and complete casting while Stuned

Educated guess:

I would say that a chance to Stun a fleeing mob from behind was MUCH greater than a chance to stun the same mob in a face to face fight.
I would say that chance to stun face to face was about 15% (on roughly equal level targets), while chance to Stun same mob who is Fleeing and from behind was 75%+

Stun definitely had a duration > 0. Again It is possible that duration of stun on a fleeing mob was greater, and was as long as maybe up to 1.0 sec.
I can't really ay if face to face stun duration was shorter - its usually hard to tell mid battle.

Stun most definitely was interrupting casting, but some times a caster mob could recover from it.

On a subject of 55+ mobs - would be nice to have a custom rule to control (or turn it off/on) after which level mobs can't be stunned

While I agree with the first two, I'd like like to see evidence of the third. I definitely think it's possible, but don't know for sure.

I have to say this is kind of what I was thinking, but I haven't been able to find anything definitive, just a few comments along these lines.

I've not heard of duration being affected, just chance.

I would definitely like to find some parse or something with this. It makes sense that it could happen, but I'd be hesitant to put this in without proof.
