Ezareth I'm really tired of how you talk down to people on these forums. Very Patronizing. No, I don't need to message a DK. Yes, I kill people fine. There's a handful I do not. I am not some NUB who cant break through shields. When a Sorc can tank 4 ppl with one shield and I as a stamina user have to do a song and dance every 4 secs there's a glaring disparity. Sorry you don't see it. Happy some do.

If you die in the situation shown in that thread's video, there is more than a handful players you can't kill. Everyone is welcome to argue, also about class balance, but when you have no arguments left, that's just it. You rather seem to be unwilling to accept this time, that that Sorc you couldn't kill while he was only casting his Ward (wich I doubt, it's actually far more likely you just didn't understand what he was doing or didn't tell the whole truth) was simply better at the game.

seriously? you go 2 v 2 with pixy and sypher and tell me when you don't die. I read the meter. I know what hardened wards are mitigating in damage. There was nothing else that this sorc used. We killed the sorc finally..sure..but I wanted to see what in the world he was tanking with..no blocks..no harness magicka no whitstrakes...hardened ward..Ice comet..hardened ward Ice comet ticks after..hardened ward..invasion...hardened ward...caltrops...hardened ward..talons..hardened ward and finally before he died talons registered for damage. That was well over ten K dps from me (not counting the other three doing their damage.)

all I see is that dodge roll gives me a chance percentage of evade..

Your feathers are awfully ruffled over what most likely seems to be a user error. Sorcs have pretty bad ass shields, yes. If they didn't, I'd two shot them with trivial ease. Magicka based active defense is the way they stay alive. With that said, I have no problem CCing and executing shielded Sorcs that don't quickly blink away to create space. I can dodge the attacks I need to and my cost reduction + regen means I can repeat this ad infinitum. I don't want easy kills all the time; perhaps most competitive players would agree?

You are refusing to let anyone speak sense to you and stamping your analogical feet like a toddler. First, relax. Second, adjust your game play. Third, watch how much less you have to complain about shield-stacking sorcs.

Tintinabula · April 2015

no ruffled feathers here. No one likes to be called names for asking questions and trying to offer new ideas. On my side I have spoken good sense as well. I would gladly trade a percentage chance to evade based off stamina that forces me to roll ever 4 secs for a 100% damage mitigating shield based off stamina. Others agree. That's all I really need to take comfort in. Trust me, a slew of sorcs comfy with their fat mitigation shields based off their main trait flooding in to make sure no one else gets the same thing was expected

Dodge roll is 100% evade the vast majority of abilities for the duration of the dodge roll (something over 1 second). Some abilities (chiefly categorized as AOE abilities and Dots) ignore dodge rolling. Why do you keep saying every 4 seconds? You can dodge roll every second as long as you still have the stamina to do so. The same with the Sorc casting Hardened ward except if he's casting hardened ward he's not doing damage so if you're doing "10K DPS" to him he's not doing anything other than spamming wards nonstop.

I know sorcs who have over 13K wards as well, and they also have limited magicka regen and even less stamina regen so you kill those kind of sorcs by draining them of stamina instead of trying to kill their shields.

And I would gladly "trade" for the ability to use a magicka based dodge roll that gave me 100% damage mitigation for 4 seconds too. I wouldn't even need or use hardened ward then. I could just perma-overload-roll people to death. I'm sure others agree this is exactly what Sorcs need.

We need to get you into a guild of good PvPers to train you or something.

Tintinabula · April 2015

as far as I know..as far as I can see. that glow animation (which i assume is evade) last for roughly 4 seconds(after dodge rolling). So its 100% evade for projectiles only I'm guessing? Ive looked for a tooltpip on dodge roll and it benefits but haven't found one. I thought it was 40%.

P.s. I can say with fair confidence Ive been hit with stuff after roll dodging. i know you cant roll dodge comet and i'm guessing you cant evade velocious curse or spells like it say...detonation or crushing shock?

Are you talking about dodge roll or something else?

Dodge roll is 100% evade against *everything* that doesn't hit through dodge roll. It doesn't last 4 seconds and there is no animation other than you rolling around on the ground that I'm aware of. Melee heavy attacks, light attacks, many staff heavy attacks, bow heavy/ light attacks, pretty much all instant cast direct damage abilities other than Jesus Beam and Flame whip and concealed weapon are dodgeable.

Tintinabula · April 2015

I think it was better to let me think my evade chance lasted for 4 secs..that's not any better..so..I'm supposed to be happy with 1 sec 100% evades that I cant cast or do damage while its active when sorcs have 13k damage mitigation shields???nu uh.

How long does hardened ward last if you're not being hit?

Sacadon · April 2015

Maybe he's talking about nimble from CS... It glows after you dodge roll.

20 seconds. If it didn't a nightblade with a bow would just have to wait a few seconds for the shield to expire and then line up his snipe and 1 shot me.

You can animation cancel abilities with dodge roll. I kill people with that all the time. Most of the stamina meta is build around animation cancelling damage abilities with dodge roll.

You can't evade Dots like VC or Detonation, you can evade crushing shock however (as it is a projectile).

Current short list that I can think of:
Meteor
Velocious Curse
Flame whip
Mana detonation
Entropy
Resto and Lightning heavy attacks
Concealed weapon
Jesus Beam

I'm sure are a few more but few people have enough abilities that hit through dodge rolling to kill someone outright who is permarolling.

not for sure. My spell and physical resistance jumps approx 1k..so could be it.

Its amazing how in patch 1.5...Everyone was Tab Targetting

But when patch 1.6 comes out, everyone stops Tab Targetting.

Clearly that's why Sorcs became so much better

You died in the very beginning of that fight.

And if the Sorc really just used Hardened Ward, a single damage combo of a high hitting stamina build could finish him off. Involving well timed cc obviously.
But even if you for whatever reason would not use your cc in a smart way, if these other players would hit with even remotely decent damage, the Sorc would be dead in seconds.

Actually it brough a good 50%+ increase in the number of PvPers (and forum posters) who didn't care enough about the game to pay a subscription for it, but now that it is free they are happy to clog up Cyrodiil providing equal parts of free Lag and AP, while cluttering the forums with their posts and complaints that we all experienced a year ago when the majority of us were still learning to play.

You basically said you are not a bad player actually, then went on crying about Hardened Ward.
I linked a thread with a video, showing that you are indeed a pretty bad player actually.
You actually tried to defend yourself saying it was a 2v2 against Sypher and Pixy, while in reality Sypher bursted you down quickly in the beginning of the fight, where you had quite some allies still and he was alone.
It's in no way a bad thing if you're not a good player, there are a lot of reasons why one wouldn't be and not everyone can be on or near top. Just don't pretend otherwise.

And yes, I certainly could do a lot better. There is no player who would be able to kill me 1v2+ , sorry.

You actually tried to defend yourself saying it was a 2v2 against Sypher and Pixy, while in reality Sypher bursted you down quickly in the beginning of the fight, where you had quite some allies still and he was alone.
It's in no way a bad thing if you're not a good player, there are a lot of reasons why one wouldn't be and not everyone can be on or near top. Just don't pretend otherwise.

And yes, I certainly could do a lot better. There is no player who would be able to kill me 1v2+ , sorry.

sorry, ignoring you. You're so full of yourself and you have nothing to add to this discussion except insults. I kill plenty. Tyvm. You never have been nice.. so why stop now? Please link me these vids where you're owning Sypher plox.lol

Alright, ignore me. I just hope you wouldn't say anymore you aren't "some NUB who cant break through shields" while complaining about someone tanking you with just one shield in the very same post.
And sorry, I don't record anything. I didn't say I'd own Sypher either, I said there was not a player killing me in a 1v2+ . If I recall correctly from PTS, Sypher won 2 fights vs me, I won one, and one was draw.

This thread has gotten fairly far off the rails, and there's a lot of rude behavior, so we are locking this.

It's fine to criticize or disagree, but it's important that the discussion be kept civil and constructive. Additionally, please remember to be respectful of the forum rules.
