Honestly since Ancients aren't armored anymore I don't much fear them now. A lvl28 (so formerly ~60) Ancient nearly dies from one charged attack to the face with a potato'd Dread (note: I don't have the best mods so someone with more foma's and more nightmare mods could easily kill them in one shot). Unsure about new lvl50 ones, but I'd imagine 2-4 hits should do it.

Regarding your original question - it could be that stagger is now linked to proc chance. I -think- I've seen Dread stagger them once or twice, but not all the time like before. It's late and my memory's fuzzy so take what I say with a grain of salt and test it out for yourselves.
