In laggy conditions convergence will sometimes stun you and apply all the damage before it even starts to drag you to the center.
And there's nothing you can do about it - your character becomes completely catatonic for 1-2 seconds and other enemies can hit you during this period.
So yeah, it is broken and powerful and from what I can tell ball-groups benefit more from it than solo players because they can steamroll everybody more effectively now than they ever could before.

Developer Comment:
This set was designed with one goal in mind – kill large groups. Pesky zerg sitting on your keep or resource flag? Send them to the void by pairing this set with some hard CC and immobilizes.

Sometimes it does well when defending but players are catching on.
I've shelved Dark Convergence. Hrothgar still good for Chaosball tanks.
The Secret is to run this "Zerg Busting Set" as part of a Zerg also using this set, that way all the ground is LAVA because.... ZOS Logic
^This. The problem is not when one player uses it, the problem is when a zerg/ballgroup has multiple players using it because there's nowhere to roll out to. So instead of being zerg-busting, this has just become another tool for zergs and ballgroups. What a surprise.
Its basically killing Cyro right now - at least in GH, maybe not so much the lower populated camps. But when you have faction stacking with 50% of the player population wearing DC, there is literally no where to stand that is in range to attack or fire a siege weap. Forget dodge rolling, u just dodge roll into another one. Also blocking works but to an extant. If you were only blocking 1 DC, it be ok, but so many are wearing it that many times its multiple stacked DCs along with all of the other AE damage being spammed on you while you stand there trying to move or block.
Its amazing how little insight went into this set especially with feedback in PTS that all this would happen..
