Just adding my own experiences from live. I had a Tranquil staff on live, on povar, during Kunark.
The stun was definatally random up to 12 second duration. I vividly recall fighting mobs in my low 50's in Dreadlands and as soon as the staff would proc I would run behind it, and at times I would get reprocs and never get hit, with the mobs back facing me for an entire fight at times. Although a full stun locked fight was rare, lvling an iksar monk in the 50's solo, I killed tonnage. So I had a good amount of them.
I was able to kill for hours on end with no breaks because of the little damage I was taking ( due to the stuns) + mend ( I did not at the time own a fungi tunic)
From what ive read here, and the people I have spoken to on p99, It doesnt seem to working as it did on live during Kunark. However i do not own one to speak for.
Although No log will show this, the best way to see how long the stuns are lasting is to move away from the mob as soon as it procs. Do this enough and you will get a good idea of how long it is lasting. The logs of the mobs hitting you are not really that accurate because mobs have a weapon delay, just like us =) So what you are seeing as a 2-3 second stun, might be an insta stun ( spell breaking stun ) + weapon dly. Obviously, this cannot realistically be used as proof, it will give you an idea of how much you should complain!
I realize nothing I said here can be used as proof as to how it worked on live, but I saw the thread, have history with said item, and I dont own one on P99. I have no vested interest in it working properly, other than I want this server to be classic like most others.
Happy adventuring !
Oh, and just a note about not wasting time on a super rare item like this. Items like this at times, is what drives people to play! .01 % might own this, but the other 99.9% badly want one. If its broke, there is no dream. Dreams keep people motivated. Lets get it working properly.
