I tried dispelling it, no go. tried every interrupt I had, didn't stop him. at 92 in SS/ST faction gear and jewelry...there was nothing I coudl do to prevent the mediation from completeing..and I certainly couldn't kill him in the like 5-6 seconds you get before he hulks up on you.aslo the groups of protectors...then piling on 4 detrimentals in the first 2 seconds of combat that turn me into a puddle of goo about 2 secounds later isn't that fun either. even with my paladin cure and pots...I can't cure all dots before they paste me. seems like it's a stackable trauma debuff/dot. I coudl see each one popping it one time in the first few seconds but 2 traumas per mob? geeze does it make you squishy.  Yeah, you need to kill them before they complete their meditation. They should give you long enough, and probably should have less HP.Keep in mind you mau need to bring a merc or a second player to do some of the advanced solo stuff.Ive nerfed the protectors pretty hard, should change with next build.Also, the spells the Cenobite casts I have changed, so its a root not a stifle, it is curable. There will not be any curse.
