Why is Snare so effective on all my characters? Including Fear?

I have a Sorc, DK,Temp and Nightblade, and no matter what I seem to get Snared or "Feared" and I can't get out of it. I get completely stuck and then instantly killed. Last night I was on my Yellow sorc and I got feared. They didn't attack me and continued to attack others. I pretty much ran off in the other direction with no control and not being able to snap out of it until the effect was over... My stam on my DK and Temp are pretty high and yet these guys still struggle to get out of any of these effects...Anyone else having any issues, or is there something I'm missing. Thanks! :)

    I find fear exactly the same. As a Sorc I just thought it was my meager stamina but I made sure when I tried it I had resource. Ans all my guildies say the same even Stam builds.

    It feels like the CC is broken, and I've seen quite a few posts saying the same thing. Out of interest are you PC or Xbox?

    It's an annoying over used skill anyway I just hope it is bugged and not intended.

    It could be that the person is using a Ravage Stamina pot, increasing the cost of your stamina 'abilities' by 60%, meaning even though it looks like you have enough to CC break, you actually don't as a magicka user with such a small stamina pool.

    I don't believe fear is bugged as I have no problems breaking out of it on my stamina builds, and magicka builds if I resist the urge to dodge roll everywhere.

    I cant imagine everyone who is a nightblade using the ravage stamina pot, even on my stam nightblade I can't break it, and she is stamina based! I have thought about throwing some of my champion points into a *get out of snare* section.. but I can't really afford to waste them when im only at 332.

    I'm actually on PS4. The laggy side of Cyrodiil normally. :)

    I thought I was the only one with this issue.
    Can't break-out of this snare, even when I've enough Stamina.

    I guess it's bugged, because before I could break-out of it.
