    Welcome to spamable immobilizes.

    Magica DK's and Sorc's haven them their class skill lines at a relatively low cost stamina builds have them at a very low cost in the bow skill line with bombard.

    Snares, roots, and immobilizes are insanely overpowered with very few counters and a few counters they do have come with escalating costs.

    It's dumb, add to that immobilize followed by a hard cc effect is extremely difficult to break out of ex cripple into fear and the PVP portion of this quickly degenerates into a mess, of well just un-fun.

    Your going to see this a lot in the future I hope you develop a love of it.

    Immobilises are soft CC and aren't affected by CC immunity.

    I agree, roots/immobilizations need to be looked it, it should be possible to root someone 24/7 like that.

    As Dk's we can't run and we can't hide. We have very little defense (especially now thanks to scales bug on console). We have no viable shields and no healing. Any healing we do do is based on damage. So if you get away and we can't damage you we can't heal. So if we can't run you can't either. Dk's excel at control and it's just about the only thing we excel at. Suck it up butter cup. Nothing has changed from the last patch or the one before that as far as talons and other roots are concerned.

    ok calm it, don't get all defensive. simply think that being able to keep a enemy pinned an entire fight is a tab BS is all

    And sorcerers able to cast endless supply of damage shields becoming better tanks than tanks isn't or night blades able to restart the battle with cloak isn't ? Or Meteor being unrefelctable because ZOS said it wasn't on par with the other ultimates either though it was one of the most used and powerful ultimates in the game already isn't ? what about the damn magicka META ? Is that fair is that not BS as you are putting it ?

    So dragon knights got a small buff isn't mean their broken. I am sorry if you think dragon knights sound defensive but they finally got a small buff be though only to magicka type builds they still got buffed and the magicka ones are probably gonna try to keep it.

    if you don't have room for an ability that hard counters roots, snares, seige, and dots then you probably shouldn't complain about any of those things. purge is a very valuable skill, try putting it on your overload bar as a sorc

    Immobalizes should have their own cc cap. So say you use a hard cc, then a soft cc, then the enemy shouldnt be effected by either for at least 10 seconds.

    Magicka Build = Efficient Purge
    Stamina Build = Shuffle

    Problem solved. Make use of these skills!

    Just FYI, as a sorc you have even better immobilize spam than the DK. Restraining prison roots for longer, covers larger area, and applies a snare after the root expires.

    It was probably more frustrating for the 2 spam CC'ing you and couldn't kill you due to spam shielding..just saying.
