it’s always going to suck when you get stunlocked

I’m okay with CC being strong but strunbreakers should be more balanced across classes, and quite some utilities should be additional stunbreakers for everyone to open up more build options.

For example, Basilisk Venom is an über stun on 40 seconds cooldown. Most stunbreakers have way longer cooldown than that – elementalists’ for example. On the other hand, Mesmers are able to slot 3 ~30 seconds stunbreakers and be viable (blink, mirror images, decoy). Engineers for example are also really lacking when it comes to stunbreakers, they usually only have the elixir on a 60 seconds cooldown or elixir gun toolbelt on a ~40 second cooldown.

Add 1 second of stability to all stunbreakers that don’t give stability or invuln. Make it so you can’t chain CC on someone that’s already CC’d, like GW1.

Problem solved.

Noooooooo, you beat me to it, but I was going to agree with the OP. Consume conditions still too stronk!

I’ve played a few games and much of the time, I’m spamming Consume Conditions only to see the cooldown timer reset due to…. more Crowd Control.

… Clever Cloggs.
