Maybe I missed something but snare has far shorter duration in pvp due to a client-side issue I think. I dunno if this was fixed because I haven't read this forum in a couple of days but just keep that in mind.

That was a client side issue. Classic didn't have that feature.

You people who think that the CC spells should be viable in pvp will change your tune when a chanter comes in and is able to control an entire group and do whatever he wants with them. It may take him a while due to mana issues, but eventually he would be able to completely destory your entire group with ease.

Or if you're a warrior and get snared for 10 minutes while a druid kites you.

Just look what happened to WoW over the past years:

There is a reason they limited the movement impairing effects so severely in pvp. There is a reason they severely limited the duration of CC spells (polymorph was a 30+ second spell). There is a reason they came out with trinkets that removed said effects. There is a reason they came out with diminishing returns. There is a reason why they gave every class some sort of stun/snare/root/fear (well, that was for their quest of 'balance' which is a whole different animal and one we should never get into).

CC spells are way too powerful in PVP. Just look how powerful they are in PVE.

I know it was a client side issue, that's why I said in the post that you quoted, "snare has far shorter duration in pvp due to a client-side issue". This client side bug is on blue99 so I figured it was still on the red99 beta. Not sure why you're talking about 10 minute snares when that isn't currently happening and probably never will.

That's how long EQ live ensnares lasted, they just only had a 2% chance of landing.
