Lock Shadowfury- (3sec stun, 30sec cd) Instant
DK Remorse Winter- (6sec stun, 1 min cd) Takes 5 sec to stun but an aura around the DK so he can follow you
Some other similar aoe CC:
Priest Psychic Scream- (8 sec fear, 30sec cd) Instant, 5 targets
Lock Howl of Terror- (8+sec fear, 40sec cd) Instant, 5 targets
Warrior Intim Shout- (8 sec fear, 1min cd) Instant, 6 targets
Almost every other AOE stun in the game is instant, unavoidable, and on a short cd. Our CPT takes 5 sec to work, can be killed or avoided by running out of range, and is on a longer cd then other aoe stuns. It makes it inferior in almost every aspect. I would gladly sacrifice 1-2 sec on the stun if it was almost instant or had a much shorter cd. Its weaknesses heavily outweigh it's minor "strength" of 5 sec stun.
