initially i beleive bind worked similar to the mobs variant but it was obviously taken advantage of so it was changed to what it is now, same for stuff like enfeeb resistance building not being around until later on for the same reason.

Mob gets to cheat because it doesnt have potentially up to 18 or more players worth of actions it can do at any given time. That said i did hope that they would go look back and bind/break and apply the veil formula to it where you could hit the mob x times before it broke based on users skill and maybe potency

Not questioning the need for resistance building from a balance point of view, just saying the mitigation is not ideal, breaks immersion, and makes the experience frustrating.

I am all in favor of a system where you can't stun lock mobs while fighting them, but I want it to be symmetrical between Players and Enemies.

Hell, it could be as simple as: if an enfeeble gets resisted, some damage is taken instead. Have that scale well and you can reach a state where players have to consider that during the second half of the fight they might not be enfeebled as much but they'll be taking extra dmg, presenting healers and tanks some interesting decisions.

Is there a way to keep lockstyle despite weapon type changing? Currently idling in a club but if switch to a staff it breaks it.

Dressup addon in Windower, but in the base game there is absolutely no way to do this, no.

Thank you. That's what I needed!
