I mean, CC is nice and all, but it's pretty non-interactive. Hex and done. My DPS is just spamming Earth and Aero, and since there's no positive feedback from that (like healing power or MP regen buffs), there probably won't be much reason to use those in more difficult encounters where MP is tight, unless the DPS requirements are really steep.
I'm not complaining because great fight design can make simplistic gameplay just as fun, but compared to other MMOs like WoW, Rift, etc where you have heals with varying efficiencies and speeds, procs to react to (such as double power next spell, vs non-interactive free spells), and active resource management, this is extremely basic.
I might switch classes again if this doesn't work out.
