The game has a Balance stat to manage stagger effect. It's max value is on the level up screen, next to other stats affected by Agility. It's current value isn't displayed anywhere in the UI but it's regenerated over time and drained whenever a character gets hit. When it reaches zero the stagger effect is applied but balance is not reset which may result in a stun lock. Vanilla "Ignore Pain" skill is said to reduce the chance of stun lock but it doesn't have any effect. This mod makes your character ignore (by default) 15% of all staggers per level of the skill. At level five it means that even when your balance is drained only one in four hits would result in stagger. This means that e.g. a squad of five (and above) archers would still reliably stagger you with its salvo, but against fast-hitting enemies, you can act almost freely or at least run away from them.
