Has Break Free become incredibly clunky & unresponsive for anyone else?

Since the update I've found that Break Free has become super inconsistent and unresponsive. I've checked it out a few ways and I'm consistently getting stun locked when I have full stamina.

✭Yes. It's very common to get perma stunned in PvP and you just have to stand there and let the enemy kill you as that's the only way to break the stun.7 -

✭Y’all were able to reliably use it before this patch? I’m shocked.Edited by dcrush on November 28, 2025 12:00AM6 -

I was just running a normal dungeon! That's what's been getting me
The game just won't respond2 -

Never get involved in a land war in Asia - it's one of the classic blunders!1 -
Alphawolf01A✭✭✭✭✭I've noticed that npcs seem to be using crowd control moves a lot more frequently too. There is just a constant stream of "knockdown, incapacitate, interrupt, slow" repeated over and over. I've had instances of trash mobs chaining a string of heavy attacks, one after the other, or knock back/knock downs that weren't telegraphed. Coupled with block randomly not responding/working. Makes for some tedious fight that shouldn't be.2

✭CC break has been unreliable for like a year or two at this point no matter where you are in the game. It either requires multiple presses to break free, or it doesn't provide CC immunity and you get CC'd by something else within the supposed 6 second window of being immune.5 -

Omg yes im not the only one who's noticed. Lightening stuns, poison arrows shot in my ass stopping me cold despite wearing slippery almost constantly. Its like it doesn'teven work anymore. And I can swear the cooldown isnt working right either. Ive been stunned by some little *** in a delve multiple times when I ought to still have snare immunity.
Cc has always been as janky as anything else, but its way worse lately.

mdjessup4906✭✭✭✭✭I really hope adding more cc to npcs isnt their way of making overland more "difficult" because all it is is annoying. Cc belongs in pvp and no where else, especially on overland mobs.4
