Chaos Inoculation, and freeze charm isnt working

Chaos Inoculation doesnt stop Abyss Chaos? i instant died with chaos inoculation when i faced an abyss boss which is weird cause when i look up what kind of damage abyss monsters do mainly and it said "Chaos" also the abyss rare monster also instant froze me with max cold resis and a freeze charm. minions can stun you constantly with no cool down anymore theres moments where a cant move because my characters flinching constantly from the instant stun resets(i have three pieces of gear with stun resis). You guys need to quickly fix the op mobs and disadvantages for players cause atm energy shield, ailment resis, stun resis one most of our gear which goes against the new strategy of having players use more diverse gear mods.

we need you guys to hurry and fix these so the game season doesnt die out quickly

No, bosses do not do only chaos damage. There are some enemy skills that are partially chaos converted and some attacks/debuffs that only do chaos damage, but you can't be immune to bosses just by allocating CI. I have no idea what enemy you were looking up, but all 4 of the Abyss bosses definitely have non-chaos damage.

If enemies are bypassing your ES, you need to re-check your tree and gear to make sure you don't have ES bypass. Seen that bug reported a lot of times and it's not a bug if the player is using 2 things with anti-synergy (bypass + CI).

If you run a map with increased freeze buildup and low ailment threshold (IE: no threshold based off ES), then you are very susceptible to freeze as CI as by default, it is only based on your pre-CI life and any sources of flat, which both are probably very low. Thus you run increased stun/ailment threshold (flat or based on ES) with a large ES pool to allow you to take more damage before being stunned/inflicted with ailments.

And considering you're getting both stunned and frozen, it's a pretty safe guess you have little to none allocated. 3 pieces of gear rolled up to say combined 750, plus the 1k base life, that's only 1750 default threshold or however the math works. So your anti-freeze/stun charms are probably constantly off cooldown when you take any damage from a map with damage mods.
