Need Nerf on DK Petrify/Fossilize/Shattering Rocks (PC or any) N/A or any region

Hello and good day.

So, here it is. If it hasn't been said already allow me to then to say The skill petrify and it's morphs need to be Nerfed. Where as once your get encased and break free, you should gain an immunity to it's affects for at least 5 seconds. Because, and I'll tell you why. If you haven't heard by now, this seems to be a common one button favorite for DK's and they love to spam it. A player should not be hit by it, breaks free and immediately gets encased again, ,,,, wash rinse repeat over and over.

So again, need the nerf on this particular skill so once players break free, they cannot be encased or immobilized again for at least a minimum or 5 seconds to give them a fair chance.

Thanks.

    Its an undodgeable cc.

    If other cc's can be, then it should be too.

    Finally the first one that said it.

    WOW.

    Thank you, yup it is UNDODGEABLE. And DK's spam it on you over and over. Wasting all your stam just bursting out of it. Can't dodge roll thru it or out of it, can't dodge roll out of it when the affect is over because you immediately get hit again. And it's UN-blockable.

    I mean I have a tank too, use it well, also an off tank, both DK's. Even I think the skill is skill-less and ridiculous. This is only one of countless things wrong with this game. But I'm going to focus here.

    You can remove the root part.

    ...But only if you make it an AoE hard CC with up to 2 targets, add a 53% snare and Minor maim for 4 seconds.

    Nope. Please see nb before requesting any nerfs to the most nerfed classes (dk, templar) in ESO history. I have usually tried to be civil before but, leave dks alone. After 3 years we are finally making progress. #nodknerfs

    cc is broken at the mo and going after dk when it is the most nerfed class is unfair

    It has been nerfed before. The range was decreased to 8 meters from 16 meters. This is probably the only dk skill that still works. They nerfed the dk so much that I'm changing to another class. Because of the huge amount of nerfs Dragonknights are broken now I mean guys like you broke them by crying so much. Have no doubt it will not get nerfed and you will have to watch all Dragonknights spam fossilize in your face for eternity because no other dk skill works for them to consider not using fossilize.

    Lol!!! I love fossilize, and I hate getting it used on me. At least when you’re rooted you can still make attacks and heal and shield. So chill out

    Yo, OP. Can you clear up your comments please, because it is coming off messily.

    " Where as once your get encased and break free, you should gain an immunity to it's affects for at least 5 seconds. Because, and I'll tell you why. If you haven't heard by now, this seems to be a common one button favorite for DK's and they love to spam it. A player should not be hit by it, breaks free and immediately gets encased again"

    Are you complaining about fossilize is general, or the fact that the CC immunity isn't applied. Because it is not possible to spam it and stun repetitively... usually. There are occasions where CC immunity doesn't apply, this can happen with the DKs whip or leap, double CCing. This should be fixed

    However, if you are on about the fossilize root, that is just a property of the skill. Then, the burden of counterplay is on you. Roll, prebuff with FM, shuffle (with unchained passive) mist, whatever.
    There is a specific combo which is good for immobilization, talons, lash, fossilize lash. This root>CC>roots you. And is working as intended since launch (well, at launch you could infinite root anyway)

    Remember though, DK is the control class (though others like NB and couple of patches ago sorc compared) as such it should have the stronger CCs. However, there are plenty of hard counters to roots, so with one FM, you can waste the root of both talons and foss. As it is melee, you can outrange, LOS (i.e. around a tree, or behind the DK) quite easily.
    DK is slow, melee, has only med strength dots, and no execute. So DK finishing people is largely based around running them out of stamina.

    Just a note copypasta'd from the other thread.
    Nerfs are fine, if they come with subsequent buffs and rebalances. They are needed to stop power creep, and balance broken additions, etc.

    I'd be fine losing the (admittedly occasionally cheesy, though also often useless) root on petrify for automatic offbalance so I can actually *** land my now dodgable, now costing, now shorter ranged easily preventable lash without having to spend 4-6k mag on a setup that can be stopped with a single button in 3 separate instances.
    Then stamDK can also use it for truth and exploiter procs.

    Its true though. They lock you down, whip whip whip and you break free and roll only to get it applied to you immediately and they do it over and over. It's cancer. Some classes don't run immovable pots we need other pots on our Q button, we should have snare immunity for at least a small window of time as if you've "learned" from it. Like "Aha you're not catching me with that same thing twice."

    Well start using immovable then.

    I am getting so tired of calling for nerfs. You PvP players don't like it, get the heck out. You are ruining the game for the PvE players.
    I have a Bosmer, three cats, 2 Imps, an orc, a very short high elf and my favorite vamp. I own just about every pet and mount in the game. I can officially say "I'm in deep!"
