Deielrion Posted September 16, 2015 Posted September 16, 2015 (edited) We've seen some confusion recently about exactly which crowd control effects share diminishing returns. To hopefully clear that up, we're providing the following, categorized lists of all of the CC effects in the game. For those who may be unaware of how the Diminishing Returns system works, here's a brief explanation: After you've been affected by a crowd control effect in PvP, there's a 15 second window for diminishing returns. The second effect of the same category (as listed below) that is used on you will only last for 50% of its normal duration, and the 15 second window will be restarted. Should you be affected by a third effect from the same category inside that window, it will only last for 25% of its initial duration. The 15 second window will once again be restarted, and you will be immune to any further effects of that category for the duration. The lists below have been separated out into their specific diminishing returns categories. Each ability shares diminishing returns with the other abilities it has been listed with, and no others. Table of Contents Roots Stuns Mesmerizes Fears and Horrors Silences Disarms Knockbacks Other Effects Roots Death Knight Chains of Ice Druid Entangling Roots Mass Entanglement Hunter Charge (Tenacity pet) Narrow Escape Pin (Crab pet) Lock Jaw (Dog pet) Web (Spider pet) Web Spray (Silithid pet) Mage Freeze (Water Elemental) Frost Nova Monk Disable Priest Glyph of Mind Blast Void Tendrils Rogue Paralytic Poison (Shiv Effect) Shaman Frost Shock (including Frozen Power) Warrior Staggering Shout Warbringer Roots (Short) (Note: this category does not share diminishing returns with the above Roots category) Hunter Entrapment Mage Ice Ward Monk Spinning Fire Blossom Shaman Earthgrab Totem Stuns Death Knight Asphyxiate Gnaw (Ghoul) Monstrous Blow (Ghoul w/ Dark Transformation active) Remorseless Winter Druid Bear Hug Maim Mighty Bash Pounce Hunter Binding Shot Intimidation Bad Manner (Monkey pet) Lullaby (Crane pet) Petrifying Gaze (Basilisk pet) Quill (Porcupine pet) Sting (Wasp pet) Sonic Blast (Bat pet) Web Wrap (Shale Spider pet) Mage Combustion Deep Freeze Monk Charging Ox Wave Clash Fists of Fury Leg Sweep Paladin Blinding Light (Glyphed) Hammer of Justice Holy Wrath Fist of Justice Rogue Cheap Shot Kidney Shot Shaman Pulverize (Primal Earth Elemental) Static Charge (Capacitor Totem) Warlock Axe Toss (Felguard) Shadowfury Summon Infernal Warrior Shockwave Storm Bolt Racial War Stomp Stuns (Short) (Note: this category does not share diminishing returns with the above Stuns category) Rogue Paralytic Poison Shaman Earthquake Warrior Charge Dragon Roar Mesmerizes Druid Hibernate Hunter Freezing Trap Wyvern Sting Mage Polymorph Ring of Frost Monk Paralysis Paladin Repentance Rogue Gouge Sap Shaman Bind Elemental Hex Warlock Banish Racial Quaking Palm Mesmerizes (Short) (Note: this category does not share diminishing returns with the above Mesmerize category) Druid Disorienting Roar Hunter Scatter Shot Mage Dragon's Breath Monk Breath of Fire (Glyphed) Priest Holy Word: Chastise Fears Druid Intimidating Roar Hunter Scare Beast Paladin Blinding Light Turn Evil Priest Psychic Scream Psychic Terror (Psyfiend) Rogue Blind Warlock Fear Howl of Terror Mesmerize (Shivarra) Seduction (Succubus) Warrior Intimidating Shout Horrors Priest Psychic Horror (Horror effect) Warlock Blood Horror Mortal Coil Silences Death Knight Asphyxiate (if target is immune to stun) Strangulate Druid Glyph of Fae Silence Hunter Silencing Shot Mage Frostjaw Counterspell Monk Ring of Peace (Silence effect) Spear Hand Strike Paladin Avenger's Shield Priest Silence Rogue Garrote Warlock Spell Lock (Fel Hunter) Optical Blast (Observer) Racial Arcane Torrent Disarms Hunter Clench (Scorpid pet) Snatch (Bird of Prey pet) Monk Grapple Weapon Ring of Peace (Disarm effect) Priest Psychic Horror (Disarm effect) Rogue Dismantle Warlock Disarm (Voidwalker/Voidlord) Warrior Disarm Knockbacks Death Knight Gorefiend's Grasp Druid Typhoon Ursol's Vortex Hunter Explosive Trap Shaman Thunderstorm Warlock Fellash (Shivarra) Whiplash (Succubus) Cyclone Druid Cyclone Charms Priest Dominate Mind Note: This is direct from the Blizzard site.

Nemifest Posted September 16, 2015 Posted September 16, 2015 (edited) I posted a link to this DR list. People still whined about it. But thanks, really appreciate you showed the whole list without Link. Edited September 16, 2015 by Nemifest
Deielrion Posted September 16, 2015 Author Posted September 16, 2015 I posted a link to this DR list. People still whined about it. Thought it'd be easier to access here. Didn't notice you posting the link before, though.
Furmetal Posted September 16, 2015 Posted September 16, 2015 (edited) Does knockbacks have diminishing returns? Now that's something I didn't see in a while. I'll check the list later and edit this post. @Edit Everything seems right, also a note is that the Paralytic Poison is flagged as a non-controlled stun, thus not sharing DRs with the other stuns, which made it be removed later due to making it possible for a rogue to one shot someone without they even having the chance to react - given the chance of the proc, of course, so it was quite randomly.
