Re: ZOS, 4v4v4s may have their own issues, but they are much more consistently engaging.
Mainly came here because it WASN'T ANOTHER NM thread.
But while I'm here...
+1 for 3 team BGs remaining, as an addition to 2 team BGs.
Played both for years - both have pro's and cons, which is why choice is key.

Re: Wizard's Addon Subclass Restriction?
Well it sounds like we are almost there. If the UI can do it free, then the code exists and could be simply modified to work in a different UI panel: Wizard's. LOL Thanks for confirming what I thought.
It's crazy now, we have SO many layers of redundant gear systems that could be condensed into one: just ONE build manager that swaps EVERYTHING and nothing else. We don't need a system for free menu respecs (that only respec skills) + shrine respecs, scroll respecs, etc. + another system that swaps skills and gear, etc. + another system (via addon) that let's you swap builds without swapping subclassing, etc. like bro, it's nuts.
can someone either code Wizard's to do everything (including some visual things + subclass lines) OR can ZOS stop being lazy and clean this mess up?
Thanks for letting me rant.
in order for wizards to do what your asking it will have to break even more rules then it already does , but once its able to i hope its the straw that breaks the camels back and zos will remove these type of add-ons as they give unfair advantages that eso system limit for reasons
After testing Shattered Paths mythic, it’s not the bear!
It’s very obvious if you test bear currently with the new mythic that it’s not the issue that’s causing it to parse high.
Once again it’s multi classing into Herald of the Tome and using maelstrom 2h. Without those two options Bear + shattered paths makes warden as high as a mid tier dd.
I’m currently hitting 150k with mythic and Bear ult without herald on my staff/staff warden, and 150K and my Dual wield/2h stamden. Both subclasses with Animal/Winters/Aedric, when I add herald and Mael 2h they become 165k-170k dds and when a better player uses it becomes 180k+.
I suggest looking into herald’s unique ink damage and maelstrom 2h’s interaction with all the best abilities in game before killing warden dpsing.
Side note, buff bow back bar again to be on par with maelstrom staff.

Re: WOW - you get NOTHING while reviving during a skirmish
If you want to call it a bug, it is a long standing one. It has always been the case that if you die during an encounter, for instance a world boss, your participation resets and you need to reach damage/healing done again to get credit. If the boss dies before this, you won't get credited, regardless how much damage you did before dying. So if you're not sure the time will suffice, you need to stay dead on the ground and only revive after the encounter completed.
I don't know if this is a bug or an intended mechanic, but I agree it should be changed because it actively discourages reviving and further participation out of fear of missing out on the reward.
yeah and a world boss that takes 1min to fight is also a lot less effort - the only thing this encourages is not reviving anyone, standing back as far as possible from danger and being just really not useful to the group...
on top usually only your active group is doing a skirmish and no one else
Re: Need help putting together a new pure arcanist beam build after nerfs to annsul's+tideborn+velothi
As far as I’m aware no nerf to malestrom so back bar with stampede is still great.
Null arca is the set to go with for single target. But you will be missing out on multi target damage.
As you already noted sets like coral riptide is going to be a viable replacement instead. But I do like the idea of easy set and forget with null arca rather then having to do the stamina mini game.
Huntsman and the shattered path signet are other mythics to consider for u50. Some builds put together with shattered path signet doing massive damage. However maybe magika only focus

Re: U50 Feedback Thread for Combat Refresh: Werewolf
Someone needs to archive this thread for when the inevitable 10k warden pvp (duel) parses come through and everyone here calling werewolf OP begins praising warden as the team doing "an absolutely amazing job with this rework", as stated about DK by one of the agitators here.
Not that it will make a difference for werewolf, but it will prove the hypocrisy.

Re: U50 Feedback Thread for Combat Refresh: Werewolf
To make this thread actually about werewolf feedback again:
I'm not sure if the fix to the black werewolf texture took place, as the fur still looks like it has brown tips, but I would need @Erickson9610 to confirm properly.
Animation wise, I appreciate the update to the two-legged running animation! It looks much better, less goofy. The arms were lowered and the body was leaned forward a bit, and I think this improved it a lot. Claw Fury also feels a bit better, the animation quicker. I haven't noticed other changes yet, at least nothing major, but these two stood out to me and I wanted to mention them as a THANK YOU to the devs for revisiting especially the run animation.
I just wanted to say thank you for everyone else testing and trying to help the devs get WW in the best way possible to be successful and improve on the previous issues. Still don't care for the colorful highlights on the skins, makes em look cartoonish, blurry and less business like. One thing I liked about the Berserker Wolf was the tone of the critter as well as the alternative skills. Probably won't be using WW anymore because of this fact alone. Same reason I don't use banner.
It's a complete mystery to me why put all this work into something and ruin it with adding cartoonish decals and in some instances, over the top effects. It just ensures some of us will never use it. The good thing about ESO was it was like a more mature MMO. Less WOW stuff, if I wanted WOW, well then, I'd be there. I mean if I really wanted alot of visual effects then I'd just go watch Avatar or something.

From what I can gather, you need to be in front it and be there when he surfaces with it’s mouth open.
Could it be buggy? Because when I did get swallowed a few times, I was on his side (and trying to run away lol). Then again, perhaps he did have his mouth open, I didn't look.
Re: Night market is not a trial
A lot of people have been talking about soft grouping here... Except that there's nobody to group with. I don't know if there are too many instances, or if I've been getting on at bad times, but I can sit by the door in a district for an hour and never see another player come through, the whole place is like a ghost town. Where and how are these soft groups supposed to form?
Don't sit at the entrance waiting for groups to stumble onto you. Open the group finder, select a Night Market group that's working an objective conducive to your goal, and join. After you join, travel to the group's instance.
If you sit there at the entrance, you'll wait ages. If you use group finder, you'll find a group within seconds.
Re: Update 50 PTS – Week 3 Summary
From what I know, at least for the last 5 years, they pretty much did represent the power difference also in content too (specifically talking about trials). A skilled player able to achieve high values on a parse dummy will also be able to update the build according to actual content requirements -- except for HA builds.Turtle_Bot wrote: »I really wish ZOS had never released the trial dummies, those things have been the absolute worst thing to use as a metric for balancing classes because they give completely unrealistic parsing conditions that doesn't match up with real content. But players throw around dummy parses like they are actual in-game trial runs and use the most unrealistic and cheesed youtube click bait parse numbers as reasons to call for nerfs to other classes without any understanding of how that number was cheesed and why it is not a good comparison of how the class actually performs in real content.
No, they can't. Before the u46 was released, there were rumors of a sorc achieving over 180K damage (the highest at the time) using Overload. But we all know that in actual PvE, the sorc's usage rate is still very low, tied for last place with the warden.
This will be werewolf, because unless you're in a WW guild that's just going YOLO or has human babysitters, you will be at a disadvantage if you're even allowed. Melee only cleave with no utility? Yeah lol.
