X% increased Stun and Block Recovery

Whenever a player or monster takes damage from a hit, there is a chance they will be stunned. A stun interrupts whatever that creature was doing while a brief animation is played. Neither damage over time nor reflect can cause stun.

Blocking is a layer of defense that will entirely prevent damage from an enemy hit unless modified by some outside effect like Glancing Blows. The chance to block is a random roll made per attack/cast. Block is capped by default at 75%. Characters do not have any base block.

Blocking a hit prevents all damage and harmful on hit effects such as status ailments. The attack must be a hit in order to be blocked, therefore block does not work against damage over time.

Reflects X Physical Damage to Melee Attackers

Damage reflection is a game mechanic that makes an attacker (e.g. character, monster, trap, etc.) hit himself. Usually it appears as a modifier that causes a damage dealt to a target to also be taken by an attacker; but this mechanic is also being used in other places.

Regenerate 2% of Life per second for each different Ailment affecting you

An ailment is a detrimental effect associated with one or more damage types. Ailments are similar to debuffs, but they are not synonymous. The most notable difference is that ailments are typically inflicted by hits made up of their associated damage types, whereas debuffs are applied by skill effects.

Ignite, chill, freeze, shock, scorch, brittle, and sap are referred to as elemental ailments because they are associated with elemental damage types. Bleeding and poison are non-elemental ailments.

Damaging ailments are those that inflict damage over time. They include bleeding, poison, and ignite. Non-damaging ailments include chill, freeze, shock, scorch, brittle, and sap.
