[dev1071] Crowd Control Questions: How many cooldown timers?

Does the cooldown timer on CC tactics apply to each tactic individually? Or does it apply to CC tatics in general.

Example: I cast sleep on the toad. If I cast sleep again within the timer cooldown and it sticks, the effect is halved. So instead of casting sleep again, I use Stun to avoid the halving of the effects. I continue doing this until the beast is dead.

Is this correct?

is there an actual timer you can see for this?

The impression I got was that there is one for each specific tactic.

Same. Sleep has one timer and bind has another forcing you to strategically use a combination of sleep/bind/stun/etc to keep a mob or group of mobs under control. This should prove interesting for a blm who's job it will be to keep adds asleep or at least less of a threat to the party while they focus on a boss or mini boss.

I like this. It makes you plan your tactic with cc... if you ever were a wow pvper you know this makes battles more dynamic and fun.
