rusty vs WF

[Zigana]

Can someone explain to me what exactly the situation is when encountering a rust monster with a WF? I don't play WF so I'm unsure of what happens exactly. I was told it's a saving throw vs stun. If so, what's the save, fort? And is it a one time shot, or do you get repeated chances to save every few seconds? Is there any way to prevent this short of high saves/running away? Any special items that make you immune or feats/enhancements, etc? I've got a challenge ticking away in my brain that I would like to throw out, but need clarification on this topic first, thanks

every time they hit you, you have to make a fort save or be stunned, no chance for recovery but to wait out the duration of stun

if you prevent all the damage theres no need to make a save either. A mix of DR and resist acid can save you the headache. Up until the vale my WF feared no rusty, I always enjoyed doing fisticuffs solo on the von rusty emperor, but the new rusties (Rainbow in the Dark) hit just a lil too hard to prevent most of it, and the save looks to be a bit higher as well.

Not enough to be truely dangerous, but noticably annoying. I've still been able to solo the rusty instance on my barbarian; altho they did break half my ****.
