Thoughts on the Purify changes?

CC, as in Crowd Control, has just gotten even worse than before, and like it was already bad with most classes having access to at least 1-3 Soft/Hard CC to get brutalized by but its just so much worse now. With it being a resource, they nerfed its up-time which means there is now even less time to handle getting out of things without getting hit by another CC, plus its practically -15,000 HP on use. None of this would be an issue if they removed most of the harder CCs from all the classes and replaced them with softer ones, and leave the hard CC to Limits or long CDs but they wont. PvP is fundamentally flawed that balance is the way it is, where every class is potentially capable of 1v1ing any other class but some classes just have more options that give them better range to tackle whatever issues they're dealing with. I honestly would rather have the Shadowbringers system of being stuck eating the first CC and then getting 10s Immunity to the current system, and even the last iteration too with how much we potentially need to wade through not getting chain-CC'd to oblivion let alone how much damage some of the CC buttons also do. Guard doesn't even feel good to use since its also shorter compared to the 5s(now 4s) it used to be, and it feels like its not as snappy right now, so we're losing more and more ground to fight against CC when most classes are also doing massive burst damage to you as well, so its a lose/lose if you get enough people to run up to you at once between Crystal Conflict or Frontline even moreso.
