I think it would be a neat spell if a Mage could stun when he blinks away… obviously this wouldn’t be a fair spell, I just think it would be cool.

I haven’t played my mage in a very long time, but I vaguely remember one of the talents adding a chance to stun to fireball or pyroblast.
They used to have deep freeze I think? It was an on demand ~4 second stun as a talent.
You’re thinking of Impact, which originally had a chance to proc on any fire spell (fun with fire AoEs), but may have been restricted to fire blast at some point before getting pruned.
I miss it. That silly RNG stun saved my rear in PvP on multiple occasions.
No, I am thinking that when I use the blink spell to get away, it would stun anyone within a certain radius, kind of like a warriors charge.
Yes. That sounds familar. Thank you.
A ranged stun? I mean I feel like it would be interesting to see but holy crap would I be even more annoyed fighting against them in PVP if that was the case. Rooted, slowed, stunned, silenced, rooted etc etc
Yes it would be cool. It would also be cool for warriors to have a permanent whirlwind build like the D3 Barb. I think paladins should have permanent wings of light. DKs should auto rez a minion every 2 minutes. Hunters should be able to tame any beast in game. Rogues should be able to sneak random objects into other people’s bags. Warlocks should get their meta back. Demon hunters should have wings out permanently. Monks, hmm, we’ll get back to that. And gnomes should have a /stew emote where they jump into a giant pot of water cooking over a camp fire.

Could be fun but I think it would be even more fun if instead, it was a new ability that swapped positions with the target (like swapblaster) and stunned the target for 2s. Put it on a bit of a higher cooldown to avoid overuse (45s - 1m).
Would love using this on those pesky demon hunter flag carriers after they burn their cooldowns to dash across the field!
EDIT: This would also be really cool if you had another mage buddy or two and you all coordinated to break up those obnoxious healer packs in BGs. Nothing worse than a disc priest, mistweaver, and druid all circle-healing each other making them all nigh unkillable.

One that did a slow as you blinked, to help you get away, might be more fair…and thus more likely to be implemented.
I miss having a stun )=
