Casters The cc Changes in Age of Conan
Most casters we know, and me included do not care. The less cc in Age of Conan the better IMO. The issues with CC is not so much the range, we do not know many casters who used cc unless they were in danger of being attacked in melee anyhow, it's the changes to the classification of cc and the glaringly obvious crippling of every mage when it comes to silence. In fact, we think FC should make a pass over all the cc in the game (aoc gold) and eliminate the vast majority of it.
FC has decided silence is not a major cc, it never goes on global cool down. The hox silence does not even grant immunity. Because of this, melee can run around with virtual impunity once ccd since anything that stops them from hitting is considered major while their global clock ticks down, but casters can be shut down at will with silence. We provide age of conan gold for you.
The parallel would be if mages could stun all melees, whenever and however much it liked without triggering any cool down for 3-6 seconds at time. And if you think it's impossible to lock a caster down you are mistaken. A sin and hox and lock any caster down and kill them without being cast on once.
