Indonesian translation:buff stun
Explanation:
I usually leave it as it is and only exchange the structure into Indonesian. My reason is that most gamers in Indonesian know what buff and stun means. Forcing to translate it into fully Indonesian will only make them confused. But it depends on the platform. If the game is a PC game. You should leave it as it is. But if it is mobile game. You may translate it, since mobile phone users is vary from users with low level of education to users with high level of education.

stun (pelumpuhan sesaat/sementara) dan buff (peningkatan kekuatan)


Explanation:
Berdasarkan rujukan di bawah ini, maka dapat disimpulkan bahwa:

stun = tindakan yg menyebabkan lawan/musuh lumpuh sementara (dalam waktu yg tidak begitu lama)

buff = peningkatan kekuatan suatu unsur game

Karena tidak ada padanan langsung dan ringkas dari kedua istilah tsb, saya mengusulkan tetap memakai istilah aslinya dg penambahan definisi di dalam kurung.

References:
In video games, when the makers increase the power of something, it is sometimes referred to as a buff. If they decrease the power of something, it is called a nerf or a de-buff. This also applies to player abilities to temporarily increase or decrease their power.

“Stun” will briefly incapacitate the target.
