Was just playing around in the Sewers in IC. Seemed every second attack by an NPC was a freeze/stun lock? Listen if you don't want people to play there, just block it. Don't make it so damn irritating and stupid that it makes us want to punch the developers in the face for being so lame.

    If you focus on your targets they will telegraph certain attacks that can stun/CC you, giving you a chance to block that attack and not get the negative effects.

    Wait, every other NPC attack is a stun or a freeze?

    :lol: wait till you see what enemy PLAYERS do...

    Lets not spoil it for the IC PVP new guy.

    it does seem like whether its a melee or spell attack, you will always get the snared affected (white cloudy circle under your feet not to be confused with cc immunity white swirly circle under your feet).

    I noticed this a while back and comment in the same fashion. literally seems like simply being tapped by an IC enemy will reduce your movement speed by 70%

    Have seen it. While the ability to Stun lock other players so you can beat them is great for those who lack the ability to actually use ones fighting abilities provided with each class some of actually long for a PVP game where you are actually rewarded for knowing how to play your chosen class and use the fight/battle skills your character class provides. None of which you can use while frozen or locked out of action while you are beaten to death.
    But if ESO finds the 98 lb. weakling fantasy battle the way to go, they should at least lower the stam cost to break free. Breaking free with no stam left to use an ability is as bad as just staying in the stun lock.

    You made me giggle. I totally agree with you on this. Try sieging a keep and having back to back negates all over the porch by every single mage NPC in the keep. We counted about eight of them in a row, back to back one night in less than 30 seconds.

    I miss the days Negate stunned any player inside of it on top of silencing them....i miss those days...I don't know how many zergs i stopped at the top of Aleswell stairs by dropping one of those Negates....2 guys would push back a whole raid...no one was getting inside that Negate, often bought time for reinforcements to help.

    Today folks just run though it, you wouldn't dare do that in 1.5 or earlier.

    "Here in his shrine, that they have forgotten. Here do we toil, that we might remember. By night we reclaim, what by day was stolen. Far from ourselves, he grows ever near to us. Our eyes once were blinded, now through him do we see. Our hands once were idle, now through them does he speak. And when the world shall listen, and when the world shall see, and when the world remembers, that world will cease to be. - Miraak
