Uhm, will this stun just about anything or? =P

brappy 2004-11-11 14:30

15% chance ?

zyx22 2005-03-01 01:28

Yes.

Stehn 2005-04-23 18:38

good for pvp only as it does not work on dynas or any other bosses/pande mobs

Shaldori 2005-05-22 11:25

Is there any difference at all between this and the lower stuns except 1 % higher stun chanse?

scotdoc 2005-05-24 16:45

shades have like one interesting nano, an this is it..

madmurphy 2005-06-28 19:32

Don't use this line. It uses 2 skills you won't use for anything else, and shades have huge IP problems. Shade isn't a nano profession, learn to live with that or don't play shade.

Roadrunner 2005-07-02 17:59

...and shades have huge IP problems <- bullshit? yes... on TL5 + you don't know where you could spend your IP's and the proc line is one of the nicest lines ever... i don't wanna miss it, like every shade does...

Deesnuts 2005-07-06 02:15

Well said Roadrunner

madmurphy 2005-07-20 21:11

I guess my shade isn't high level enough to have very much IP. If it's true that IP isn't always a problem, I take my last comment back.

seejin 2005-08-25 05:22

190+ You make more Ip then you spend its sick.... t4 you cap at 125 and t5 at like 165 then breed cap soon after, then 190+ you title cap insanly fast and get stuck with even more IP untill 205 when you can spend 25 points per skill past the 200 mark.

Denkan 2005-09-23 12:45

you can spend 25 points on for exampel piercing @ lvl 201 its chill...its just dont show visualy

Demonatrix 2005-12-20 05:06

IMO, if you don't want IP troubles at low levels, stick to PM/SI nanoskills only 'til you get 100+ and get more IP for procs. I used brawling weapons so it helped a LOT w/ the dark blue skill, it was only temporary for dmg while leveling and conserving IP, I reset brawl later when I started using my 160 Nippy ;D

Mosene 2006-01-17 05:24

I one won't use proc's .. they are good but not for my vision of the shade .. mine is a pvp/pvm so i won't use proc's cuz proc's don't afect the bosses .. and in pvp it sucks.

malewerecat 2006-01-22 10:19

how the hell do shades find the nano skills for this?

Keepee 2006-01-26 00:09

haha good question :P maby roll a nanomage shade? xD (or not)

Freyda 2006-02-05 00:05

I am told not to bother investing in proc's till at least 160+ earliest by then you can put IPs into the skills for proc's personally I just stick with the stun proc it does land maybe not often but it does (stuns dont work on bosses or even some aliens sadly) at 190+ is when you should use nano init debuff proc's yes those do stack with UBT hehe

My main is a 211 adv, the only way to beat a good doctor (or someone with MR) in PvP is to stun them and kill them before it wears off.

Undeniable 2006-06-12 04:09

I have an op shade an @ 170 I have all my nano skills maxed an all attack skills + breed capped on all but agi. Ip is not a problem at all :) An nano skills are light blue an I have no problem self casting the procs up to lvl 155cap

Satanous 2006-07-11 06:27

I have no ip trouble at all on my shade it actually is nice at 160 when it comes to having spare ip.

liljen 2006-08-28 20:16

Have a 219 shade, and still could have more IP - wont ever be able to cast the 220 stun (or anything above lvl 211 I think) without feeling really gimp.. Wonder what u sacrifice to be able to use nanos...

Manicmouse 2006-10-21 01:57

At 150 my shade is using ql185 rapiers and is using the Quintessence of Paralyzation proc nano. Throughout TL4 I used the proc line, it's totally sick. Don't wait until TL6, spend on it when capped in TL4. IP isn't really a problem then.

Muzzz 2006-11-30 12:30

Blech... compared to the first stun proc, it's 5% extra chance and 1 sec extra stun time for ~1500 extra BioMet and T&S. Blech...

pwner 2007-01-25 23:01

220 shade here,and i cant cast that unless i use Low nano unit,CM,full Arith and pensive that add +80 Nanoskills...

Yakobo66 2007-03-09 17:04

5% rox :)

Shadowstrik3 2007-09-09 18:55

Sorry to bum all you people out that actually think this is a good nano, but there is just no point in putting in the effort to try to use this nano. The difference in stun time and % is just too little from the next one down and the reqs too high to make this nano worth anything. My shade atm is 159 but my last shade that I deleted over a year ago was lvl 216 and used Quintessence of Petrification and to be completely honest I saw little difference between that one and the first stun proc.

buttmuffin 2007-10-25 08:42

some is better than none

Dilomax 2007-12-28 18:44

why did someone max out all nano skills when shade doesnt touch mm once??

kaliiber 2008-01-26 07:25

Got Quintessence of Incapacitation(first 10% 3sec stun) @ lvl 74 and will use it probably very long and wont bother with better ones.

Vgman 2008-04-29 07:38

Its time to remind those noobs why they hated fighting ucklesh in totw ^^
