I play a GWF, currently level 43. In PvP, it feels like I'm cc-locked many times. I know what too much cc is from Rift's first versions but this is even worse. Does it get better, do GWFs get skills to combat cc or are we forever doomed to be messed with by CWs? I guess my view may be biased from the last fight which featured only melee guys on our team and 3 CWs on the enemy's.
GWF is one of the best CC breakers in the game, your TAB ability breaks CC. At that level you should never die against single CW if not on low health to begin with.
Don't panic, wait for determination to build up when taking damage, hit TAB and run away. Or charge him if you like. Problem is, at that level, you also can not kill anything too easily either.
Im around the same level as you and I really dont have many problems dominating pvp. First, I ride directly up to my target, then I stun em, knock em down and smash them with my restore strike. That's about half their life. If they CC me, I smile, knowing their doom is coming. At this point, your encounters will be close to being back up. Just run up to them after hitting TAB and faceroll your encounters. They die, you laugh. Welcome to pvp.
