-State defenses are a roll against accuracy to see if a state is applied. Each state skill then has an inherent chance to succeed upon a successful roll. Currently all these defenses stack across professions, but have a 95% cap. In other words, no matter how high your state defenses there is always a 5% chance that a succesful 'state hit' will be applied. When a successful 'state hit' is applied, there is then a percent chance based on the skill for it to work. For example unarmed stun 1 has a 30% chance to apply stun should the special attack pass accuracy checks to hit the target AND pass through the target's state defense modifier checks.
+All players may utilize state defense modifiers, regardless of profession. State defenses are a roll against accuracy to see if a state is applied.

For example unarmed stun 1 has a 30% chance to apply stun should the special attack pass accuracy checks to hit the target AND pass through the target's state defense modifier checks.
 Additionally there are skill modifiers that add a bonus to the attacker's state/effect application modifier to increase the chance of applying that effect.

		+
		+	The defense vs. {state} skill mods are probably percentage based. So a 100% defense vs. stun would be the real limit: you never get stunned. However, it's also possible (but I've never seen it confirmed one way or the other) that different stun or KD attacks have different chances of sticking. You see this already with the potency stat on CM poisons/diseases: higher potency has a better chance of sticking. If that's the case, it might be along the lines of this:
		+
		+	ChanceOfState = ( AttackStatePotency - DefenseVsState ) / 100;<br>
		+	StateRoll = random(0,1);<br>
		+	if [ StateRoll < ChanceOfState ] { ApplyState(); }<br>
