Thanks for the compliment; I don't necessarily think that I'm knowledgeable, I'm just pretty good at "figuring things out".

Anyway, on the Special Ability with SF armor, a lot of it is random chance. A fellow guild member in my guild has the Stun ability (Meditor Montem, S/E, and he has both the regular and plus versions), and sometimes he'll hit 4 or 5 times in a row with Stun, and other times only once. A lot also depends on whether you have the Ring and Amulet set that goes with the armor, as they will "buff" the armor and give it even better chances (I think the R&A set adds another 15% or something if you have both the armor and R&A set fully maxed).

I unfortunately am not very lucky when it comes to armors, and don't spend enough to get the best armors, so I've only got a few lower-level DF's and just now (with the new Heroic Mode) can finally craft my first SF and SF+ (Silvanus Stonemail), so my experience is somewhat lacking when it comes to the Special Ability that comes with the SF armors.

Sorry I couldn't be more help, but I do know that a lot of it is RNG (Random Number Generation), just like most of the chests; sometimes you get really lucky and do great, other times, not so much.
