Bring back CROWD CONTROL!

CC seems only useful in single player games anyway. Multiplayer is all about nuking things fast and hard.

That was never the case when I played WoW or FFXI. Guess things changed when I took a hiatus from MMOs in 2008. Not CCing was punishable by death, or at least a very bad time.

CCing every other piece of trash is boring, and CC in this game is excessively fragile to boot so it's of no use in boss fights.

I think this is the main problem. Most of my CC work comes from City of Heroes, where the CC classes (Controllers and Dominators, mainly) were actually *really* powerful when played right, and could single-handedly lock down whole groups by themselves. Granted, I don't expect to run into any game that gave *that* much power to a single class, but it does color your perception of how things work a tad. Maybe if the Immobilize parts of the spells that use it didn't break so easily we might have the start of something, but I don't know if there is enough in the game to actually take advantage of that.
