    So reflecting meteor is bad but if I turn invisible (dark cloak) it will do zero damage? I am a sorc just apply ward then wait to hit then streak, no damage. In lag I can get hit by meteors .... Well I never actually see them but my death recap tell me I was hit by one. If there is no lag the only ppl hurt by meteors are Templars... Typical. Well I guess if you are on stairs there will be the 45 k fall damage.

    Templars purify them...

    Purify is broken cheesy mechanic that probably will be fixed in next dlc.

    How is it considered salty to point out a broken mechanic?

    THE BROKEN MECHANIC IS YOU USING IT. IT CAUSES FALL DAMAGE IN A LOT OF PVP. I HOPE WHEN IT REFLECTED BACK AT YOU YOU WERE ON UNEVEN GROUND AND GOT FALL DAMAGE.

    Typing in all caps doesn't strengthen your position. It just shows you don't understand how keyboards work.

    There is nothing more satisfying than watching people Reflecting them. Makes me laugh so hard.

    Reflect is meant to reflect all spell projectiles. A Meteor is a Projectile, that is summoned by a spell.

    Sorry that the meteor in this fantasy game isn't realistic for you.

    Get good kid.

    "Meteor: This ability and its morphs can no longer be reflected. We also fixed an issue where the damage over time from this ability would appear at the wrong location when cast on a moving target."

    You can't dodgeroll meteor.

    And it's a game with magic, revival, fall from high places without dying, taking laserbeams, two handed weapon swings, arrows, stonetrebs/sieges and not dying. And you expect realism? Cmon :trollface:


    Edit: @Alucardo The people who still are wanting nerfs for reflect are probably the kind of people you see in this video :

    By the way the account of OP is new. I guess someone from ZoS created the topic just to prepare us. But we still were shocked when we read the patch notes.

    It does not come from space. It's a magic missile more or less. If it came from space with huge speed, entire cyrodill would explode and there would be a crater. It is more like Goku's spirit bomb only it takes less time to create it.

    And yes, it should be reflectable. Both by cloak and flappy wings. Because it is a game and nothing is "realistic". TESO is a heavy magic imbued world. Magic meteors can be reflected by other magical stuff.

    Deflecting a snipe arrow to it's caster is just as odd and only a Jedi can do that. Not a shield, flappy wing or whatever.



    While you are thinking in the right way, I think you are forgetting about mass.

    This thread got 2 agrees and they made meteor non-reflectable. Just another reason I think ZOS has gone completely insane and isn't fit to make their own decisions.

    OP, you're a poo-poo head.

    I don't agree with the changes to Meteor now. But stop pretending this never was an issue for players.

    Hey, I already said I'm against the change. But pretending this was no issue for anyone, when ZOS is most likely aware of the feedback they got on it in the past, isn't going to help avoid this change making it to the live server.

    I stopped using Meteor long ago since it was just a waste of ultimate. IMO ultimates should be powerful attacks/effects. I am good with this change. A good player should be able to hold him block button to block the incoming meteor. Really this change is going to only help play styles revolved around stun locking your target after you cast meteor so they can't block it...

    well in just a month meteor will no longer be reflectable. I will not give you a sarcastic congratulations. Instead I will let it come and you will see how bad of a change it will be for yourself. Maybe I will be wrong, but I do not think it will be a change for the better.

    Have fun buying new hard ward after the ones you have now explodes from the meteor spams destroying your frame rate.

    Jokes aside it cause of [use your imagination] similar to your crying why this game is going no where. There was no reason to make meteor non-reflectable none at all.

    I agree, honestly, but I've come to look at it as the might of a dragonknight is fabled to reflect aetherius asteroids. What I will NEVER accept is the NB stealth from meteor. I don't care how *snip*ing invisible you are, you don't avoid a giant space rock hurtling from the heavens. Even if it doesn't hit you, the AoE alone should do at least SOMETHING.

    Seriously.

    The aoe typically does but if you momentum and re-cloak it's a joke maybe 1 or 2 ticks
