i think this has to happen at some point,it doesn't seem logical that you can change from run to guard whilst you are stunned.
for instance when a spider puts you in that cocoon you can just guard to negate alot of damage.

that's not my point, in pvp situations it would be useful as well to have people actually having to put guard up right before the stun hits rather then just having your char get stunned and then put guard up, would need a bit more skill to do so.
am i really the only one who is bothered by this?

I agree with you.

Being able to switch to defensive while stunned sounds like a bug.

I see it as more of a natural reflex to protect yourself

If you can switch your whole body stance then there's no reason why you can't just attack as well.

If you can't do something as simple as flinging your arm around making a defensive stance shouldn't be possible either.

Hrm interesting a skill that lets you go into defensive mode AND attack back.

I'm taking this to the 33

But honestly you should post this in the bug forums instead of Ideas.

the web is not a "stun" it is more of a "root", when actually stunned as via stomp, leap at, bullrun etc you will take full damage whether in guard or not.

I agree, animals are way too easy, most attacks should break your guard!! (bear's stomp,beaver's dance,deer's charge,hidebehinds cripple,nightgaunt's taunt,..)
