Loss Of Control Type

Classic EraTBC AnniversaryClassic progressionForeverRetail
  • Not available on that edition (the reason is in the tooltip)
  • Depends on the setting, your class or another addon (details in the tooltip)

What it does

Checks how much time is left on a loss of control of the type you choose, such as a stun, fear or silence, compared with the number of seconds you set. If no loss of control of that type is on you, it does not match.

Why you might use it

Compare how long a particular kind of crowd control on you has left, such as a stun, fear, root, silence or polymorph. Use it to spend a break-free ability only when it is worth it, for example a PvP trinket only when a stun has more than 2 seconds left, or Blink or Escape Artist against a long root. It reads only your own character, so it works on every edition. See also Loss Of Control Blocked and In Control.

Example

time remaining on Stunned is greater than 2 seconds
