Stoutness of Stone

The tooltip of this racial dwarven tactic states that "you recover from stuns and knockdowns 50% quicker" Could anyone confirm that it is working as intended? I seem to recall someone in the forums arguing the uselessness of this tactic on the grounds of its failure to perform correctly in many occasions, although I think he was referring to old Warhammer.
Obviously, the tactic being extremely unreliable would utterly frustrate its purpose, that of a life saver in extremely clutch situations.Levelling a slayer for ST damage and roaming depends a lot on the correct functioning of this tactic, as solo roaming will bring him into daily contact with stealth destro roamers and a slayer with a big dump on offensive stats isn't likely to survive 3 seconds down on the floor with a WE savaging him from behind.

That slayers are better suited for AoE damage inside a group and that slayers aren't supposed to survive a WE unstealthing on them are opinions that I more or less expect to read but won't really pause to consider.

From my own experiences it seems to work, although I am not positive it is working with morale knock downs, or if it even should.

I would recommend it, it is a strong tactic, I often run it on my Rune-priest when roaming. It helps a lot against WE's as you said.
