Feedback on PTS

glitchmaster999

I am posting this here because I want to know peoples opinions on things I have tested on the PTS:

- so far, stamina still has no place in dps tables
- nightblade siphoning attacks was nerfed to 3% instead of 4%
- nigthblade buffs were insignificant excluding the restoring path which is healing for more than my strife now
- dragonknights seem to have been a bit over nerfed
- templars are in a good place
- sorcs are rediculous, I was soloing craglorn content at vet 9 with a two hander, dual weild, destro, resto and bow...... only thing I couldnt was a sword and board
- sorc dps is higher than any class despite having best escapes and ranged abilities
- nightblade dps still too low
- certain things seem smoother such as shadow cloak
- broken talons not so broken anymore

Im sure I missed some but yeah, basically nightblades need a huge buff, templars are nearly there, sorcs need a mega nerf and Dragonkights are good if not need a tiny tiny buff to their tanking.

Can you be more specific about Templars, please. How are they compared to Live? Has the lack a magicka regen issue been addressed?

how should it be -.- they have the most safe dps kit, they should have to sacrifice some dps for safety.

Safety in this game is also determined by player skill; evading damage, blocks, interrupts.
I'd say you have high skill and high dps which makes sorc very easy for you.

Thats not the point though, a nightblade with dual weild should do more damage than a bow because they have to be close and have less chance of getting away from attackers, I can't think of any balanced game where ranged does less damage than melee unless the melees were tanky (nightblades are not).

As someone who is not at all intersted in testing, I thank your for your information. One thing I know is they sometimes change their mind last minute. They let people test builds that don't even get officially deployed. Keep this in mind. Please keep up the good work!

Problem is that ZOS are blind, and are about to destroy DKs even more by removing survivability as well. non-staff/non-light armor DKs are more or less obsolete compared to rest after all this.

My guild is reporting that DKs are UNDERPERFORMING on PTS as well, but ZOS wants to nerf it further to pieces.

Under performing to its original level doesn't say much on class balance.

Surely class balance needs more players input then one or two.

DK only underperforming compared to sorc but better than nb and in line of templar.

The days of god mode are gone, it s time to learn to play.
