Hallo guys,

I have googled on 2 MMO glossary pages, but did not find it. I see it is pretty much used abbreviation here.

So what is the meaning of the "CC", abbreviation? When talking about skills and dps

    Crowd Control. Anything that stuns, roots, slows, (mezes, silences...) is a CC.
    This one has an eloquent and well thought out response to tha... Ooh sweetroll!

    CC means "crowd control",in ESO there are 2 types of CC one is soft CC which doesn't deny you to cast abilities while you're rooted ex.talons,encase,etc.
    The 2nd one is hard CC that force you to break free to be able to use any ability again ex.fear,defensive rune,destructive clench,etc.

    No, you can also CC someone from a distance (cripple).

    Also if I googled (cc what does it mean) it, you first get some stuff about emails what Cc stands for. But then you get:
    cc

    stands for Crowd Control. used in MMOs when you stop mobs from attacking you. A type of ability, or character role meaning when attacking a group at least one mob is unable to attack

    zulah will CC when we hit groups of mobs

    Usually it's CQB (Close Quarters Combat), or CQ for short.

    To further expand upon this, soft CC's do not proc CC immunity. Hard CC's proc CC immunity (when it is working, which sadly it often is not).
