Just my two cents in this matter, also prefacing it with the statement that I'm a new player and therefore my insight might not be that great.
In terms to Stun Chains, I do agree that they can become very oppressive, especially when chained into the right combinations that can more or less lead to a person being stunned for half the battle and losing 75% of their health. I think the easiest remedy to this without potentially stymieing the combos that most people have is the addition of a Stun Immunity Window or a period of time where stuns last shorter if chained into one another.
If this happens, though, I'd also suggest that to be applied to certain things such as Slows and self-DR buffs.
The latter often leads to a case where a person can ignore everything you do for a prolonged duration of time, possibly even enough that they can chain all of their skills before they run out of DR buffed period. This makes it so that people who can chain their DR boons can effectively focus on the offensive entirely, reducing their opponent's potential of punishing their mistakes due to their, well, excessive tankiness.
In my own opinion, Basics feel like they shouldn't give an upwards of 50% DR during the period that they're active especially due to their duration.
