CC is out of control.

On what kind of potato did you timed it? Maximum possible time for you to be able to do absolutely nothing ( cc break on cooldown) is 16 seconds , 2 x 8 second incapacitate.

it is appalling that the player base for this game can not even count.... WITH A STOPWATCH EVEN

Best advice i can give you is to stay in school

This statement is patently, provably false. The absolute maximum amount of time that you can be completely out of control is 16 seconds, and that assumes you are facing two enemy players who have their mezzes available, you do not have your CC Breaker available, and no enemy player attacks you for the entire duration.

This is also patently, provably false. All knockdowns add to Resolve and Resolve Immunity prevents knockdowns.

Wow, what a troll thread....

First, Darth Pillar is right, longest possible period of being unable to act (ie. pass the ball) is 16 seconds, and you cant take damage during that time (and ofc your CC breaker has to be on CD).

If your healer is trying to keep you from dropping all that time, possible period of stunlock drops to 8 seconds.

Second, operatives knockdown is affecting resolve, it is worth 400 points. I tested it and I call enyone who claims otherwise a big fat liar.

Roots are not stuns, you can pass the ball.

Fact that you dont understand resolve does not mean it is not working.

CC is out of control in WoW for example, here it is not so bad.

Even if 16 seconds was the maximum, it's still too long - and taking damage definately does not break it.

If you think otherwise, talk to the people I Harpoon into flame pits and Cryo Grenade.

Tell it anybody who gets stunned and killed by an Operative or Scoundrel before the stun wears off.

Tell them how damage breaks CC and see how long it takes before they punch you in the face.

A root on a melee class is as good as any full mezz and should affect resolve - especially when lightning is not interruptible when talented, and is puts a slow effect while channelled (W T F?). Snipers/Gunslingers are not interruptible and you can't charge or pull them.

Yeah that's totally fair.

Stuns last no more than 4 seconds.
Mezzes last no more than 8 seconds and immediately break on damage.
Any combination of 2 of those effects will result in CC immunity.

I have used both Lift and Stun on toons with zero reslove and both fail to work.

I have been rooted / stunned / lifted / spinning from full health to death even using CC break in the middle.

Reslove might work and it is not equitable across professions and faction, from my experience.

Harpoon (400 points) + cryo granade (800 points) = white resolve (and probably dead target if you pulled him into hazard)

Hidden Strike (400 points) + whatever OP 4 sec stun is called (800 points) = 6 sec of stun and white resolve. If you dont have CC breaker saved for scond stun, you may die. But hey, isnt this all OP can do? Jump on someone, burst and hope it was enough

16 sec while taking damage? Impossible.

About roots and slows affecting resolve - you have official dev explanation in my sig.

Since there is quite a few skills granting CC immunity to certain classes, possibilityhaving a sliver left of white resolve (possible to just miss in the middle of combat) and fact that all CC skills can be parried or resisted (depending on type) I am not going to continue discusion about target not affected by CCs whithout videos.

You can be rooted all the time, this has nothing to do with resolve. Lifted and spinning as I understand are mezzes, they break on damage - I dont believe in your trolling attempt.

getting knocked back 5 or 6 times while being rooted after wards is the funnest

some classes like jedi guardian dont even have a resolve bar, or any other kind of cc immunity, so you can imagine how these players feel

Both times that neither lift or stun worked was against a Sorc.

Never said that Root affected resolve, however according to BW that was supposed to change in 1.2.

All forms of CC, be it a snare, slow or root, should all affect reslove.

Also, what is the equivalent skill on the Repub side that allows multiple targets to be rolling on the floor having a tantrum, or frozen in place?
