What is Crowd Control in Diablo 4

Crowd control in Diablo 4 is the same thing as in every other game that has hordes of enemies attacking. It’s basically different things you can do to stave the onslaught and make dealing with monsters a little easier.

Each class has their own methods for keeping the masses away from you, be it spells or just hitting things really hard. You get the idea. Now, I’m sure you’re wondering what the different crowd control effects are, so lets get into that.
