[TWW] Please remove the "15% Damage Reduction when affected by Crowd Control" gem

I would also like to know the thought process and justification for putting a gem like this in the game. Holding back my initial urge to be rude, but on what planet is someone currently playing the game and deciding that arena needs to be even more damp?

You can’t be earnestly claiming to not notice the complaints on this forum about dying in cc

The people at 1400 aren’t good, but they’re numerous and some of them are loud

Not currently playing, but can monk still die in a stun vs dps who didn’t even pop cds?

TWW isnt going to be damp unless some talents get some hefty pvp reductions. Engulf can easily hit someone for almost 2000% spell power instantly with 2 charges. Not even counting the bonus from vers and mastery.

Are you defending having this gem in the game? Sure, I know that people complain at low rating about dying in cc, but I would like to think that the developers would be able to filter what is a complaint from the crew who legitimately just needs to “git gud”, versus a well thought out suggestion or criticism.

Oh what a world that’d be

Another round of echoing resolve, please

No.

No. What a dumb leap for you to make

Oh so you just haven’t paid attention to the last twenty big changes to the game. And you’re passing judgment on what’s well thought out hahaha

Then yeah not sure why this would be needed, maybe dmg is just really that high going into next xpac?

I wrote that before you edited your original post to add the second part and had only written “You can’t be earnestly claiming to not notice the complaints on this forum about dying in cc.” In which case, I don’t think it was a dumb leap. Given your edit after the fact, sure.

You always this ornery?

Engulf deez

I disagree. It was still dumb

Only when iamverysmart leaks like it is here

Ha, okay. Hope your day gets better bro.

What’s really silly is:

Bc it reduces the cd on blast, nova, ring, cone, etc. But it uses the term “loss of control”

And yes I know mage cc (poly) is spammable and doesn’t require cdr, though I would think that ring is a hard cc since it actually freezes someone.

Blizz needs to get some term clarity lol.

I agree. Get rid of this gem. People need to die in stuns

That’s the point, right?

You stun people in order to kill them, not to give them barkskin :smiley:

You need a few more duelist seasons before you’re allowed to talk like that.

If most dps didn’t have the ability to save themselves from mountains of otherwise lethal damage when not stunned, this wouldn’t need to be true

I wish more specs didn’t again.

Don’t know if they are going to reduce CC in the next expansion, but if not, this should be baseline imo.

Ion said they are going to shift the balance of pvp to be based more on BGs and group pvp content, thank God, so that makes sense.
