It is very possible to immobilize, stun, knockdown, and fear your stomper while in the downed state. This can give you enough time to force your enemy into downed state and then res yourself with your pet or to give time for your party members to help.
• While stomping Engineers and Warriors, you can hide behind your pet so it can bodyblock their downed skill #2.
