    Standard is very powerful at choke points IF someone picks up that shackle.

    I'd much rather see the destro ult require similar coordination for it to be more than "meh". But the direction of the game is toward dumbification so I don't expect that to happen.

    Been saying a standard should stick to the dk instead of being planted. Whichever one doesnt effect pve so much. Was assuming standard of might because the near 100% uptime of shifting standard is great for pve.

    With healing being as strong as it is, and no execute for magika, think this would be a good move.

    What? Leavy my standart alone. If you want eye of strom, then use that, but don't dare messing around with standart. Especially not if you are talking about the standart of might morph, if you want to make it stronger in mobile pvp fights, then take shifting standart.

    You have shifting standard which is a bit weaker, but cheaper and can be moved around.

    Yea, kind of thought it was a joke. It wasnt. Seems like the devs either dont play the game except for in groups of 10+ or even worse, dont understand core concepts of builds. They seem to be under the notion that classes should only have 1 role via class abilities, and where swaying mdk to be healers/support (?! See cauterize, igneous, armernments, and stonefist?!) . these has been the most recent additions.

    I still don't get DKs need for an execute... NBs hardly use the one they have. Sorcs have it in a passive form and jesus beam is a completely different animal.

    If Zos makes an execute for DKs it should follow the impale/killer's blade idea rather than jesus beam idea. And people is not going to use it beacuse it dmg is peanuts with the BS debuff.

    mages wrath is not an execute. It is used as an execute but is way better.

    mages wrath can be used efficiently at the beginning or the end of a fight. An execute is only useful at the end.

    Instead of an execute, DKs should ask for major defile on a spammable skill (searing strike imho), which makes DoTs more effective

    Just like every ability deals damage when cast, yet an execute is good because the damage increases when the enemy reaches a certain percentage, that's what makes it an execute. Templar beam deals damage initially, so does Assassins blade, and so does the 2handed execute.

    How much dmg does assa blade? 5K? In pvp is halved by BS and then you have to consider mitigation.

    JB is strong because it starts to escalate on 50% health and has up to an extra 20% dmg based on your current magicka.

    The high dps doesnt translate to pvp very well. Mdk is a slow burn class, and healing outpaces dots. Mdk has been reduced to using super ult combos to combat this, negating the battle roar passives because ults get sat on for combos.

    i thought it would be good as a 250 cost ult that utilizes dot dmg, gives bonus dmg and dmg reduction, and defile.Yet the skill is completely useless in pvp because its stationary, even tho it sounds great on paper.

    Compair it to incap. Does roughly same dmg, major defile, 20% dmg bonus, not completely useless. And best part is, setting it above others, low cost and dmg dealt all at the same time. Plays to the strengths of the class.

    I'd love to see standard of might return to what it used to be originally. I think it had:

    - Increased radius
    - Snare
    - Increased damage over time

    There were no zerg troubles before dragon knights got nerfed! Coincidence? I think not! Players could group together so much and run in balls because they were one dk standard away from a wipe! Players used to melt in standards!

    Also revert Cider storm back to its original state. That might be where the snare came from but its been so long now I cant recall :( I do remember having lots of trouble getting out of the radius though! But that is why its useless now in pvp, its too easy to get out of and groups run right through it.

    Cinder storm > Standard of Might > Burning Talons = zerg busted

    #BringBackTheMagDK #HereComesThePain #BringBalanceBackToTheForce

    On the topic of an execute - Dk's Never needed one in the original setup of the game. That's why they never had one. The skills from day one were all good enough to compensate but with the changes made to the game (Champion points, sets, nerfs, buffs, etc) it may well be needed. Dk's never complained about it in the early days

    Been saying a standard should stick to the dk instead of being planted. Whichever one doesnt effect pve so much. Was assuming standard of might because the near 100% uptime of shifting standard is great for pve.

    With healing being as strong as it is, and no execute for magika, think this would be a good move.

    rofl, you either lacking in fundamental knowledge of dk skills, or you are just trolling, but here you go. reason why NOT to make standard an aura: shifting mother-*** standard allows the standard to be moved 1 time during its life span refreshing the time of the ultimate at the new location at a lower cost then the other morph. with base time of 15s this means that shifting standard if timed right can easily be one of the longest up time ultimates availabe in the game, as only warhorn being longer at 39s premorph. this is on top of the damage per second, the heal debuff, and the high damage synergy damage (dont knwo if it refreshes synergy if it used before the shift buf it it does refresh the synergy damage when you shift it, that even stronger utility of the dk ultimate).

    the only class ultimate that you could argue should be changed to an aura is the nightblade shadow tree ultimate morph:bolstering darkness. and reason for this is lets compare it with shifting standard. shifting standard costs 200 ult, grants 30s of ult time, heal debuffs enemy, allows high damage synergy, can be moved during fight to another location, vs bolstering darkness, which does zero damage, only debuffs damage to allies by 30% (same as other morph that does do damage) and allows synergy to allies under 50% granting a solid heal (other morph does this as well). and a movement speed debuff that again is all morphs. so the only benefit to bolstering darkness is an additional 30% reduction of damage to caster, this makes bolstering darkness the most underpowered ultimate in the game. no damage, no real debuff to enemy, synergy heals that dependent on health loss to activate is counter to the game's dynamic which is fast-paced combat, you would litterally 1. be standing in it constantly (pvp battles move constantly) and 2 you would have to be spamming the synergy bind. so unlike shifting standard which does damage, heal debuffs enemies, allows for another ally to do a high damage aoe synergy, bolstering darkeness does a 60% damage reduction to caster as the only worthwhile aspect to note. thus this is one ability that arguably could be changed into an aura around caster. by doing so it would actually make it worthwhile for nb's to use. by making it an aura, nb's now can choose between doing damage but not havingit move, or it do no damage and it mvoes with them. by having it move as an aura it puts it in line with dk's magma armor. while magma armor would reduce damage by an greater extent then bolstering darkness can, it only lasts 9s vs 17s bolstering darkness. while magma armor can be morphed to do poisen damage + ignore phys resist on user's attacks, or grant a damage shield to allies for 100% of thier health (this is in line with power of bolstering darkness synergy heal in terms of power, utility, and use) and fire damage. and for those who will complain oh this would make it too op, no it wouldnt, if you think making bolstering darkness (an ultimate no self-respecting nb is using) into an aura, then you havent seen siphon ultimate builds in pvp. all it would do is give nb's a tanking ultimate they can use in pvp where veil of blades and bolstering darkness is completely useless since sorcs can just pop thier ult and erase them and thus the ultimates are completely wasted, whereas even 2s of a dk standard can shift the scales of a battle.

    Yea, no.

    Duration doesnt make it any better, pop shuffle/mist and get out of it in less then a second. You obviously dont know wtf you are talking about as far as dks go.

    Maybe you know NB, the wallotext (tldr) regarding the bolstering darkness being more deserving of this remedy my main indication, but that still doesnt address MDK lack of synergy within class skills. A sub par resto healer with limited/no viable self heal. Really?

    ZOS has been on a fix it mission the last couple patches. I hope this is something they address. Just asking for easily implimented changes to bolster a floundering class.

    A bit :D , more like they gotta revert to the old damage model (same damage as bat swarm but twice the duration).
