Why stop there?

Radiate77

Just read through the week 1 Update 47 patch notes and am loving the direction.

When Subclassing dropped, my first thoughts were… “well this is awesome, now subclasses can finally start to really develop an identity…”

Trading an armor buff that really has no place on a Lightning skill line for more damage is 100% the way ESO needs to be moving, but why stop there? There are several skill lines that are all over the place.

When I look at the three Elemental skill lines, and what they currently do…

Ardent Flame = Flame Damage and Healing
Winter’s Embrace = Frost Damage and Defense
Stormcalling = Lightning Damage and Evasion

It makes sense that Lightning Form no longer provides any Defense. Stormcalling was further defined this update while a skill line like Winter’s Embrace still has a burst heal, or Ardent Flame still snares people with that definitively a Frost Damage thing?

Hopefully Week 3 is more interesting, because Week 1 just isn’t enough, you can’t just draw a Class from a hat and say, “You’re the example now.” That’s not exactly fair to anyone.

You want to buff Lightning Form how about asking for a radius increase. 5m in 2025 is just NOT IT.

It should be 8 meters to match other comparable class skills.

You won’t see an argument from me on that, maybe they can add the expanding radius to the base skill and make the other morph of Hurricane (that nobody knows the name to) an actual option.
