Leg sweeps useless besides mobs

[NyxRa]

I'm honesty thinking of just taking leg sweep out of all my melees, it's single target and useless in boss fights..."fully resist". I believe it would be better if it was a cone AOE and to offset reduce stun from 3secs to 2/1.5 secs. this would help in large mob pulls; tanks could pull bigger, healer could get off a heal on tank for recovery during the time, and dps could use another AOE. Maybe just my thoughts but, I had to say it.

Yoshi P doesn't like CC and interrupts on his bosses. It's why I play BLU for the full FF experience.

I wish they integrated CC into raid bosses like blade and soul did.

While I agree can you imagine how much more awful pugging would be if CC was required? The horror...

If criterion savage needs specific mob kicks, people are going to be in for a rude awakening.

Im fairly sure if they did so, it'd not be as strict as bns where you need /7/ people to stun the boss at once or it wont work, sometimes you just dont have the comp that can provide it.
I still wish CC had a place in boss design, because it's sitting as a single trash mob mitigation at best and off the hotbar at worst.

Holy shit I miss BnS. Everything was just chefs kiss.

Moving on, I wish there was something like that but on a smaller scale. Really hoping CCs get expanded upon/used in Criterion Dungeons. Maybe something like a big mob who does a ton of damage, so your group would have to kill it as fast as possible while coordinating chain CCs.

There was actually a mechanic like that in Levi EX. You had to chain stun and kill a mob before he cast a spell that would hysteria everyone.

Why does every skill need to have a use on boss fights?

What I personally think: It's cause useless skills are taking up slots for what could be more interesting skills. It's like the Dark Mind situation; I would much rather have an actual interesting CD rather than having Dark Mind rot on my hotbar in encounters that are almost 100% physical damage. Yes I understand most encounters these days have mainly magic damage tank busters, but my point still stands.

Any type of CC is just a waste of space on your hotbar at this point aside from niche situations in dungeons, so we just want to see them get expanded upon instead of taking up space for more useful actions.

large mob pulls

Just so you know, a mob in a gaming context is a single enemy, not a group of enemies. It's a holdover term from the days of MUDs, when enemies and NPCs were "mobiles" or "mobile objects". When referring to a group of mobs, the term is or pack (usually a small linked group) or group (more broadly, several mobs or multiple packs).
