Cannot Evade enemy Attacks
Cannot be Stunned [1]

Stand your ground, child, keep your senses. The pain is fleeting, but victory is forever.

Unwavering Stance is a keystone passive skill that grants guaranteed stun avoidance, but prevents the character from evading attacks.

Mechanics

Unwavering Stance sets chance to avoid being stunned to 100% and sets evasion chance to 0%, which means enemies will always hit regardless of their accuracy rating or chance to hit.

Unwavering Stance does not modify evasion rating. This is significant mainly because of the Iron Reflexes keystone, which converts evasion rating to armour. It is therefore possible to utilize the effects of both keystones simultaneously. (Ghost Dance is also technically not affected.)

Location

Unwavering Stance is located on the bottom left side of the tree, on the intersection between the Marauder, Duelist, and Scion paths.
