Streak seems a little OP

    My game at the moment, steak, cc, cannot break cc due to lag, then a barrage of damage from the sorc = dead.

    If sorcs ahave been nerfed so bad why do so many play them?

    If it were a level playing field and lag wasn't as bad as what it was then it would be l2p,.

    From that post it seems the lag is what killed you. So many people play sorcs because they like "mage" playstyle, not because its op. Sorcerers arent god mode. If you would play a sorc to max level you would know that.

    One morph should absorb projectiles, the other morph should just stun you but cause no damage.

    yes because that 3k tooltip dmg is what every sorc goes for.

    Well they've nerfed it anyway. I can do half as many as before.

    And they ruined dark conversion.

    Cloak was broke for a year right? Now it's working as intended. A year of playing with a broken skill, it gets fixed and now players want it nerfed? (3 months with broke cloak for us console players)

    Meanwhile Sorcs run around in god-mode with shields that can withstand a direct ICBM hit from the former Soviet Union. Seems fair to me.
    You do realize if you just CC the sorc, they are as good as dead?

    No they don't realise that, bad players who cry about the non existent 'god mode' of sorc's is what led sorc to be nerfed to hard.

    If people complain about it, the devs always investigate whether it is actually correct. And unlike the bad players they know damn well what counter options are available. They're not going to make any changes purely for the sake of pleasing some vocal forumites.

    If thus we're true my Templar would be a badass

    Temps are epic . Have you ever seen Vanzan on AD/NA play? The guy's like a raidboss
    This recent update has made me sad. Sad for the game. Sad for the community. Sad to pay whatever it is now. I want the previous eso back.

    That's the problem with most people around here, they're too lazy to actually learn the class. Rather than actually evolve away from just pressing the 'A' for awesome button, they want every other class nerf'd, because it's easier. The fact most people are missing is those players who can make each class work have exactly the same skills at their disposal as everyone else.

    This game is already a shell of its former self when it comes to skills. No idea why the devs seem to listen to such a small minority when it's just a case of a few shouting loudly whilst the rest of us get on with it. Everyone then pays for it when a previously good skill becomes a mediocre skill. When that's mediocre, another skill that was once deemed mediocre now looks better and the cycle continues.

    If one person can get a class to outperform others, then it's possible for everyone to do it regardless of which class we're talking about.

    So many people whine about things being OP. "Streak is OP. Cloak is OP. Detect pots are OP. Deflect is OP. Jesus beam is OP".

    The people that are complaining about these things are the people who think they only need 1 build to counter everything in the game. I'm sorry, but it doesn't work like that.

    I've found the streak, curse drag combo OP for ages, as was the dk invasion talons whip.
    Also get it with the Nb concealed, funnel hit 5 times in a second.

    Lag is OP.

    Zos should design their game with lag in mind, it's no good pretending it doesn't exist.

    People won't waste their time dying without time to react.

    Then make a thread about the lag, not about nerfing. People are getting disappointed with people like you calling nerfs without actually looking at it objectively; you already confirmed and mentioned "if it's lag then I guess it's a L2P reason".

    Bolt Escape can be an issue. However the issue is with insanely high powered PvPers these are the people who kick it out 4 times in a battle to stun people, get out of range kick up a 25 K shield and come back kicking ass. However these are the same level of people who have a DK leap into a keep and kill 20 people defending it or a KB who stealth kills in under 2 seconds.
    For the average player this is not a super power. It takes 3 or 4 to get out of combat range, unless I can stealth or something else occupies the people killing me I am going to be killed any way. I leap in the direction I am facing with most often is into a wall or the zerg heading towards me (after I got rooted) and in most PvP these days I am hit by a zerg, hit with dark talons and then killed by 4 steel tornadoes.

    I hope this is a joke...

    You're being sarcastic right?

    Streak needs some serious buffs. Or rather, they need to remove some of the 5 rounds of nerfs it's gotten.

    I hate the idea of punishing consecutive casts. Too much like a cool down.

    Now a days, any NB can catch any Sorc without any skill.

    The lag is not going anywhere, streak coupled with the ubiquitous frag and curse is the most damage I ever receive. Yet for some reason wrecking blow seems to be the skill of choice for many nerfers.

    If you're going to quote me, try quoting what I wrote. Bit dishonest otherwise.
