A lithe black-armored patrolman lowers his shoulder and charges at you! (Off:2350 vs Def:1261)

A lithe black-armored patrolman knocks you flat!
Roundtime: 15 seconds.

I assume this is the same rt for the mercenary ability? Any chance this rt can be looked into for balance? It's considerably longer than any other type of knockdown that I know of including critter knockdowns, hamstring and shield bash...

I don't know for sure, but I thought it was random in a set range.

Maybe it was coincidence but they knocked me down for 15 seconds twice in a row. Might be but... just checking.

It should have some variance to it. It also now stuns instead of inflicting roundtime (doesn't stack with roundtime).

Has this been looked at in the past hour or so? In the arena this evening, I was getting successful charges off which resulted in stuns which lasted less than half of the RT I got as the charger. I noticed it was "double stunning" things, so I don't know if this might have messed things up. I understand balance, but this has stricken it a bit useless in its current form.

Upon testing, it seems STUN does nothing to deter standing or even fleeing rooms. Looks like my charges are inflicting about a 9-10 second "stun" but the target is still able to stand and move while under the "stunned" status.

Stunning should be fixed now.
