The core issue with crowd control right now is not simply volume—it’s the lack of meaningful diminishing returns across different categories of disruption. While primary CC types technically DR within their own schools, the game is saturated with stuns, stops, knockbacks, micro-CC, and pseudo-silences that do not meaningfully overlap on DR.
As a result, players can be controlled repeatedly through layered effects that bypass traditional DR systems. Even if major stuns are diminished correctly, they can be followed by incapacitates, micro-stops, displacements, and additional short-duration effects that effectively extend control chains without penalty.
In the current meta—where healer throughput is high and burst is lower—this creates a situation where near-continuous disruption becomes the real win condition. The problem is not any single ability; it is the systemic lack of DR interaction between overlapping control tools.
