Bosses are forever binded?

The three classes with skill binds are Demonslayer and Paladins and Luminous: Blinding Darkness and Smite and whatever skill.
So, if there was a party full of DS and Paladins (not sure if lumi can survive), that means they can chain the binding skill on the boss. My question is, is Smite and Blinding Darkness like a stun?
If so, then wouldn't that mean a party full of Pallies and DS can fight Magnus without fearing to die as he is stunned all the time?
That would mean they can technically fight Chaos RA as well as the bosses movements are impaired and will be able to finish it if the whole party has enough damage.
Since after unlimited, the cap will be raised to 50m, so I'm sure the time limit shouldn't be a problem for a party.

Edit: I'm talking about binding. I have no clue what blinding is.

Edit 2: Just found this out
[quote=GoXDS]@SombraManx according to Alliance, Smite bind stacks with DS Bind (as in you can cast one after the other without triggering a Resist, like Crash would)
not sure if the other two can stack[/quote]

Well bind and smite might stack but after those two are used there is still a 20 second cooldown in between the first and the second bind. 60 second total cool down but 20 second duration on each skill.

I just found this quote from one of the threads.

So that should mean the blind is stack-able if you have a party of 3 DS and 3 Pallies. If Magnus resists it, you can magic crash. I'm not sure about luminous bind though.

If I'm not mistaken there should be two or three types of binds. With the right combination you would be able to perm bind but not sure which ones are in the same category

@Loveday Taco?
@ KamikazeDes wait, so if it's like that, what if you chain magic crash along with bind? With buff duration it is possible to extend magic crash ability beyond 22 seconds to about 44 seconds, bind, magic crash cooldown is done along with crash resistant cooldown, crash, bind and repeat?

Damage would be a problem though, if the bosses are buffed up like KMS you may still fail. Time limit as well

I've seen a pally in chaos RA, the bosses continue moving as usual.

There's like a 50 or 70 sec cooldown on Bind status, so that's a no go.
