Geting out of stun when disabled?
-
In mmo pvp games we either had ITEMS - Trinkets which granted you skill to break out of CC (WoW), MECHANICS to get out of stun/fear/hard CC with big amount of resource - like stamina (Elder scrolls online) or ABILITIES that after being target of hard CC removed such efect - stun breakers (Guild wars 2 - there it took one of your valuable slots, which were limited like in Fractured...but could also be passive).
In Albion online however there was no such thing, mainly because fights there didnt last long, one mistake in beginning of fight cost you the fight and you mainly release "your combo " and hope for best (aka the worst pvp from all games mentioned above). But as Fractured is most similar to Albion, will we have any hard CC removing skill/item/mechanics available in case we dont evade the stunning ability (which will be probably hard / impossible, as abilities aren´t telegraphed, so you don´t know where they land ... you can only guess depending on direction your enemy faces) and if we´re unlucky on saves?...or is it too dumb and it would cause imbalance or noone would use CC?

@Razvan allright, I admit I wore knight helmet , i hated long cds... but my question is about getting out of CC when im CCed. In all games mentioned above you could do it yourself, in AO, you cant, you have to predict CC, but once youre CCed, youre mostly dead ... or you have to rely on your companions, but if you DON´T have one ?

Check the skill of the first item, the mercenary hood (can be used when you are CC'ed).

@Razvan hoops, never noticed this one nvm, never coming back to it
But still wonder how is it going to be solved here.

I believe the "healer" will get an ability like cleanse to remove hard cc, and on top of that we hopefully ghet a proper cc immunity mechanic. There is no need to free yourself from cc like in WoW (trinket) if we get abilities for it. Also it's not a 100% hard CC here if i got that right with the luck system etc.

@Shivashanti everyone is the healer
There is no need to free yourself from cc like in WoW (trinket) if we get abilities for it
yes, IF we get them
allright, its 90% hard CC then... but even then its pretty hard for me, once im CCed
so lets just hope there will be some kind of such ability

Yeah i know, therefore i put that in quotes And yes i guess we will have to wait and see how it will be worked out.
