Starting this topic, because none dedicated for this matter didn't exist.

Now, theres cleary major problems with stuns and stun resistance. For example Cheap Shot ignores all stun resistance (as we "all" have read about at Rogue Bugs -thread). In addition, there are significant differences with the "true percentages" when comparing talents and passive racial abilities that give the same amout of stun resistance.
For instance, when comparing the priest talent Unbreakable Will to Orc's racial passive ability Hardiness, which both give 15% stun resistance, its obvious that with Unbreakable Will you will have better chances to resist stuns.
This is only my personal observations rather than serious testing, but while playing with my Orc Warlock I hardly resist any stuns while my priest with Unbreakable Will will resists stuns fairly often.
I hardly play Warrior or Feral Druid so I have no clue how their Stun Resistance increasing talets are working and thats why I'd like those expirienced with the previously mentioned classes to share their conciderations on the matter at hand.
I will run some test with my Warlock and Priest assuming I'll find capable rogue for the job, but I think Exsurgo will get there before I do.

I tried playing Orc wrrior for a while, the racial and warrior talents give nice stun resist vs paladins but as for everything else ( including shadowfury / grenades / bash / KS ) etc the resist mechanic does not seem to be presant

All these stun resistance talents need to be heavily tested. To get an accurate picture we need to run at least 150 or so of each type of stun. Doing this as a standard character would take ages, maybe a GM can do this by removing the cd and combo point requirements on various test characters so they can ramp up the stuns very quickly.

Otherwise I just don't see how this can be easily tested.

Not too quickly though, for there will be diminishing returns.

I know I have the patience to run the test, with or without a GM, but I doubt I'll find someone alike. And though in life one has nothing but time, I tend to spent most of it outside of WoW.
