Larian Studios Forums Divinity: Original Sin 2 Divinity - Original Sin 2 - Suggestions and Feedback The CC is over done to a ruining experience

One way to tone down hard-cc would be to make them give decent bonuses. I'm not sure if this is the case already (as was in D:OS1), but being frozen could give you a boost in armor and resistance to slashing, for example. Knocked Down characters should be harder to hit with ranged attacks. That sort of thing. I don't know if that would make much of a difference, but it'd be start, and you'd have to think about how your CC synergizes with your whole party more.

So now we have hashed out a lot of this we need to start compiling what we have talked about. In terms of what you hate in CC and what you suggest to change it. I for one am not to great on what should be changed in regards to this but my major gripes are as follows.

- Most fights revolve around mitigating CC turning a fight into, in this case, hp stacking. Squishies get the finger.
- Sole purpose of Armor is to stop CC and they just become additional health pools, not mitigating dmg etc. just giving you more hp
- The absurd CC chaining once armor vanishes to permanently CC you till death

I want to compile all of the ideas for fixes and what is hated for my first post to make it easier to for new people to jump into the thread instead of skimming 4 pages.

I dislike hard CC as well, and would much prefer that disables heavily limit your options, but you still have some choice. Like, knocked down characters could still crawl around or attack with extremely heavy disadvantages. But, considering the animations and balancing already done, I imagine hard CC is here to stay.
