    So maxed out, the mastery just reduces enemy ability accuracy by 30% when they are stunned. So is this worth getting?

    I was meant to say rank 1. I don’t feel it needs any more than 1 point.

    Yes, but you should know when to stun the enemy so that they dont activate their ability , such as , stun Magik right before she reaches SP1 etc

    Depends who you use too. If you're running a 6 star JF then I'm sure it's awesome. I like to chain stun with Thor and Hulk, so this lowers alot of ability procs for them while the other mastery slows down power generation.

    I wouldn't get it just to use for parry stuns though, but others do.

    would it be worth it if I maxed out petrify then? so the enemy does not get as much power.

    If you're stunlocking people then I'd definitely get Petrify.

    i already unlocked petrify but am not sure whether to max it out or not. I am not stun locking them (dont have many stun champs) but I do parry very often. I also maxed out stupefy to get the most out of stuns so I think petrify works well with it. Is petrify still worth maxing out for me?

    I wouldn't since you aren't really hitting them while they are stunned too much. You can still control ability triggers with just pacify.

    so I should unlock and max pacify right?
    and just to clarify, pacify does it reduce mordo's astral evade chance right?

    Agree with @KhanMedina about at least getting 1/3 Petrify mostly just for PI, but the benefit of more isn't really there like pacify because the stun time is so short compared to regen times. With good timing 3/3 Pacify can be quite powerful, esp if you also have Assassin.

    You can't reduce Mordo's astral evade chance. Either you turn it off or you don't. Pacify won't have any effect on that. It could stop him from getting power gain though if he's stunned when the timer goes off.

    It's a good mastery, give you more of a chance that agent venom won't tenacity your parry. It's up to you how much percentage chance you're willing to risk.

    @TheHoodedDormammu assassin is great, I'm trying to get there myself, it's gonna take at least 2k units though. Despair alone is 1100 units wrothWorth of cores

    It's also a very good option against Magik. If you push her over a bar of power while she's stunned then she's less likely to proc limbo
