Can't interrupt some enemies from finishing me when downed

[KolderThanYou.9018]

"Hammer Toss" doesn't work against them despite the fact they have no Aegis or Stability. Does anyone else experience this occasionally?

Hammer toss counts as a projectile so if they have any projectile reflects or denial then it would count to stopping you hitting them

[idolin.2831]

There are many more ways to prevent Hammer Toss:

 

- Invulnerability (Mist Form/Elixir S/Distortion/...)

- Aegis/Stability (as you mentioned).

- Blind (they blind you right before Hammer Toss, so it will be a miss).

- Projectile denial/reflect (Magnetic Aura, Swirling Winds - Ele's Air Focus 4, etc.)

- Mirage Cloak.

[Hitman.5829]

Some professions have straits that deny CCs, for example:

* For ranger the knockdown is transfer to the pet if it is traited.

* The thief gets teleported to another location if CC is applied

 

For a detailed information [visit the wiki page for stun breaks](https://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Stun_break) and scroll down to the section **Traits that break stun.**

Ranger is still interrupted before stun is transferred. (Nobody takes this trait.)

> * The thief gets teleported to another location if CC is applied

Yeah, back in 2015. Welcome to 2018 where it does not shadowstep. The Thief is still interrupted by the stun before it is auto broken. (Nobody takes this trait.)

 

Warrior is the *only* profession that actually has a crutch passive *denial* of a stun in Last Stand. Stun is not applied, Warrior is not interrupted.

[KolderThanYou.9018]

It must be traits because I'm watching their buff/debuffs bar and there is nothing that would stop my CC from applying. Thanks for the input, didn't even think of something so trivial.

Also, if someone is in the way--

 

If its a ranger and he stands right behind his pet while stomping.

I've done this many times to any class that can interrupt the stomp.
