Fear.....so broken....yet you do nothing

Gorthax

I was sneaking, tried to gank but was instantly met with fear.......this is what happened (literally five minutes ago)

Falling through the ground to be reset at your gate, being feared into objects (like the video above) with no way of /stuck to get out because the enemy players are laying aoe around you or being near you; to being feared and WALKING UP INVISIBLE STEPS TO FALL TO YOUR DEATH, I am officially convinced that with all the pvp issues going on that you, ZoS, do not give two flying craps anymore about it.

The recent patch notes have all been laughing matters as no real issues are being addressed (granted some i.e. uber jesus beam not scaling right). Should I disable all my addons and reset my router to correct this issue!? Well I am at it, the desync issues going on are just getting out of hand. Yet you are constantly fixing broken pve quest so people dont complain and continuously ignore the serious issues going on in pvp. When will enough be enough? Will pvp EVER have its turn to be looked at and fixed? Or is this a "soon" matter

WALKING UP INVISIBLE STEPS TO FALL TO YOUR DEATH

Ah I love that one. I jumped off a keep wall to escape some NBs and half way down I get feared, walk up some invisible steps right back up to the keep wall and had to jump back down again. We both loled.

Lately I find that most of my whispers to the other side are personal requests to kill me, WB me, or fear me.

Draxys

I got feared through the world and missed a 7k+ tick, which is unfortunately pretty big now that battles don't last very long. I was fairly salty about that.

Not only can fear glitch you through terrain, the effect it has on your character can also be delayed by a couple seconds in just the slightest amount of lag, causing your character to lock up until you grab your face and run 2 seconds later. This always causes me to die, since I can't block or break free or dodge for extent of the lock up.

I died 3 times last night to fear hitting me with no animation on my character. By the time I realized I was actually CCed and not on the receiving end of an unresistable stun by a gap closer I was dead.

ESO....buggier with every patch since Beta.

Sneak and then get out of sneaking and try to mount my horse....animation shows up then immediate dismount because I cant mount while sneaking...wtf lol then press H again and I can mount >_> but hey we dont get stuck on blades of grass anymore!!!

Sorc shield scales off Magicka. Tis the only problem with them. Dump everything into Magicka and you have high offense, good defense, iz stuuupid.

@Ezareth we're turning another thread into a Sorc issue thread come and state your piece!


On a serious note they need to fix fear, and remove one or two of it's components. Strongest ability in the game, and brokenly unbalancely overpoweredly when combined with the brokenly unbalancely overpoweredly Soul harvest ultimate.

Gorthax

fear is fun lol and it is even better when they cant kill you fast enough before shields get reapplied and I get away :P the only issues I have with it are when you fall through things or climb stairs and fall to your doom lol

Rylana

The other day I got feared inside of a keep. I literally blink teleported through the roof, over the ring and to the tower above the front door. A place I hadnt been at any time that day so it wasnt a rubber band.

I was like O_o

Then on an inner (where people usually put oils over the postern breach) i got knocked back and stuck in midair right over the gap for the stairs. I couldnt move and just had to sit there and die almost five minutes later after the keep finally flipped.

Theres some seriously weird stuff going on with fear/knockback mechanics in the game.

Gorthax

@Rylana I remember one time I chased a nightblade under the bridge between sej and aless. He snuck along that wall and I followed only to have him cast fear and I fell into the water to be eaten alive lil that one is my fault but it was pretty funny

Mojomonkeyman

Since of yesterday I decided to stop PvP for a while because of fear and a lot of other issues in ESO. In two hours of PvP I couldn`t engage a fight or being attacked with out getting instantly fearspammed, which I just cant break anymore before dying. It doesn`t work. I have broken fear since the beginning, I know what I`m doing. It`s not possible anymore.

"PvP" right now is: charge - get feared - try to break - die within the break free animation.

Another offtopic issue nobody is talking about: Mistform and Meteor! My only defensive mechanism against meteors and soul assaults is to mistform. You know what happens now when a Meteor is cast on you while being in mistform? You receive no damage, get out of mistform, heal up - and explode 5-10 seconds later because meteor damage comes delayed. Its totally unreliable.

This game is so broken as of now, not worth my money anymore.

Araxleon

just to clarify, fear *in a sense* is balanced. NB lack some defense compared to other classes, it helps cuz get damage in on certain targets, now fearing through walls and floors needs to be fixed asap cuz trust me its annoying... and im a NB I like to kill AD not send them back to base lol.
Also I wont explain how it is done, but some people know this.
you can control the *broken* fear through the floor ON PURPOSE which means this should be fixed. but about 99% of the time people arent doing it on purpose but still...

@Mojomonkeyman good thing the game is free huh but cancelling your sub wont make them bat an eye lash at getting proper fixes in. Now if this issue was happening in pve, you can be 100% sure it would be hot fixed in a heart beat.

Fear in itself is not broken no. In fact I would hate for it to be anything else but the way it is now. The only gripe with it is the broken things happening with it. I wont name names, but everytime I run into a certain NB from EP (no this is not a blame EP thing) and I get a burst gank going, they fear me and I --> ALWAYS<-- fall through the ground.......so far I am 8/8 on that happening when running into them.

It isn't whining it is pointing out fact.

The ratio of dps/ability to take damage/mobility is all wrong on sorc right now. It isn't that they can do the most damage or take the most damage it is the ratio of these combined that is the problem. If my sorc was on the alliance I wanted to play on i'd be defending it aswell. Great fun being op.

It is however fact not opinion - they are op

this is not the thread for that. I had a rebuttle because I am so f-ing sick of this "sorcs are OP" nonsense but I decided against leaving it here. If you want to know inbox me. If not oh well.

Oh so this fear thing has me thinking. Fear NB skill breaks block correct? Are there any skill templar has to break block?....also the fear through the world cost me a turtle battle last night, a battle to see who could stare the lo gest at each other between me and a top DC player....so upsetting...
