CC, Armor, and Diminishing Returns¶
CC value depends on target, timing, and what the CC enables. A tank using major CC on another tank may get less value than stopping enemy DPS, channels, clump paths, or bomb squads.
Field behavior¶
- Stop enemy DPS paths, beams, channels, clump paths, and bomb squads.
- Do not waste major stops on low-value targets when enemy damage is about to enter.
- If you are a stopper, stand between enemy damage path and friendly damage path, not just vaguely between zergs.
- Use armor and resistance tools on the area being threatened, not on safe players far behind the danger.
Practical rule¶
Good CC answers a question: "What enemy action am I preventing right now?"
