As far as gear goes, what does “CC” stand for?

It most likely means “crowd control”.

Stun, slow, knockback, knockup… I guess silence too. Abbreviation is crowd control, yeah. ■■■■ knows why, since these status effects are mainly used on single targets.

It only takes one person for a crowd with sufficient confidence :wink:

Well to be fair, in this circumstance, it could stand for ‘Character Control’ :smiley:

But yeah, in most games CC = Crowd Control.

That’s one of the problems I’ve had with this game. People use a lot of MOBA abbreviations to describe concepts within the game.

I think the reason for it being “crowd control” is that it’s originas are most likely in the MMORPG genre where one character would be expected to shut down several NPCs with an ability. It since got adopted by the MOBA crowd and through that found it’s way here.

I was trying to avoid abbreviations in this post but it would have ended up about twice as long if I’d decided to forgo them entirely. :stuck_out_tongue:
