Stun

“	Unable to move, block, attack, or use skills.	”
	—In-game tip

Stun is a Negative Status in Arknights.

Effect

A Stunned unit is indicated by a "dizzy" effect above them, with Operators and certain enemies (notably Mephisto and W) having a special animation used when they are Stunned. In this state, the unit is disabled where they cannot attack, move, use skills, and block enemies, the latter of which can be dangerous if the Stunned friendly unit is a frontline Operator as this will allow enemies to move past them! Stunned friendly units may still be retreated, however.

• U-Official's Short-Circuiting Genius talent Stuns all units, friendly and enemy, within her range for 5–7.5 seconds after a short delay from when she is deployed.

Trivia

• There are actually two flags in the game for the Stun status effect. The one in use in majority is the traditional "STUNNED" flag. There exists, however, an unused "STUNNED_NO_AMPLIFY_DAMAGE" flag which has the effect of traditional stun but does not apply the aforementioned damage amplifications in the Interactions section.
• Unlike any other sources, Sarkaz Caster (Leader)'s leash ability also inflicts Stun, albeit lacking the "dizzy" effect on the target.
