Is this a new skill bug? his a sorcerer and i don't see it in the sorcerer skill line.
I am a DK VET 12 tank type build with spell resist of 2369 and 2229 armor in cyrodill with all legendary equips, this guy in DC name Mysticmyst at Auriel's Bow campaign hit me with this " BURNING " skill with my shield up and killed me with ease, is this a new silver bolt bug? first screenshot 3k damage...

And I am not a VAMPIRE so the 50% extra fire damage does not apply to me..

    That's a lot of damage. I am wondering though. Isn't Burning damage is typically a DoT that is applied through any fire ability? That might be cumulative. If the burning was applied before you blocked, then the full dot would be applied and stay because it's based on a % of the initial hit and a couple other multipliers. My guess is, he's stacking his burns, maybe spamming force shock?



    I could be wrong on this though.


    Edit, wait, is this is PvP? Isn't there a way to cause massive burning in PvP?

    Yeah but wouldn't the DoT be needed to be applied on a much longer period of time to actualy deal that much of dmg? OP seemed to imply he died pretty quickly to that guy.

    It's not a bug per say, It's an exploit/cheat that some uses. You should censor the name here and report the dude directly to zenimax.

    Yes, 3k in burn damage would take quite a while.
