Stoneskin not working against X4's

[Cozumel]

Went and did the Labs last night with a 22-24 person guild raid last night, here's my observations:/Begin Rant1) With 23 (or less people) we got XP off normal mobs, and AXP+XP off named.2) With 24 people, we got NO XP for normal, and NO AXP for named mobs. (SOE Really cheezies me off on this one!)/End Rant, Begin Real problem:but what was worse:3) Putting up StoneSkin (And I was watching to make sure it was still active), I was still struck by AE's from the mobs, and StoneSkin would still be sitting there ticking away as if its waiting for something to happen.  Often the hits would be in the 2-5k range, one was 7.5k and one of them flat-out 1-shotted me with it up.  Stoneskin NEVER ONCE absorbed any hits in the labs.<div></div>

What was the level of the mob? Also what grade was your stone deaf? If the mob is of higher level than that of which your stone deaf will absorb, then I'd imagine it wouldnt work.../shrug I havent reached endgame quite yet so dunno how far the ad3 wil go(though ppl tell me it still works fine against lvl 70s).
