You 2bars players have all opportunities to make better then they. We oakensoul users will not be so good as this guys.
And because you can't be better with 2bars... You ask nerf oakensoul? Sad.
You can be better and stronger. We can't!

It's easy to look at the extreme top and think that everyone on 2 bar builds is doing this kind of damage, the reality is that 90% of players that use 2 bars are currently underperforming compared to HA builds and that is ultimately why I believe it will be nerfed. There's currently very little incentive into building a two bar build if you're a new player for example, the game gives you too much on HA currently, the problem isn't even oakensoul it's empower, there's no other buff in the game that comes even close to the honestly ridiculous tooltip of 80% increased damage it gives.
what people don't realise is that you can do a HA build on for example DK or Templar(you can use other classes too by using mages guild skills or having a group member provide you the buff) and get the same numbers, with using a single bar and not using oakensoul, that's all empower.9 -

It's easy for any player with 2bars be better then anyone with one bar. All point in here!

With every mythic there's a downside. Oakensoul's downside is that you can only use one bar. In return you get loads of buffs. You can't also expect to get the same DPS or utility as a character with double the skill options.0 -

In theory oakensoul builds are the strongest of all builds. And that's why peopla ask for nerf.

I agree with you. In theory... Its all so beutifull.

That may be true, but does it really seem reasonable that a build should be nerfed because other people choose to use the more complicated LA weaving mechanic? Whether they execute it perfectly or not, I'm not sure that it's a great idea to balance other builds around the fact that a chunk of players aren't enjoying their LA builds.
edit: What i mean to say is that possibly, rather than ruining someone else's day they could help the ones that are struggling and make the 2 bar builds a teeny bit more forgiving for imperfect weavers. Live and let live and all that jazz.Edited by Liguar on 13 March 2023 13:035 -

✭✭What is bringing up the whole oak build thing. I thought it was in a good place now. Why the controversy?
I sense shenanigans behind the reason for the OP's post. Oakensoul is in a good place in the damage vs ease of access tradeoff, much better than it was during the PTS and launch of the mythic. Pro and anti Oakensoul threads seem to be the flavor of the month right now on the forums.7 -

it's not even about weaving, it's skill use in general, there's... a lot less of it, after HA builds, Weaving has been nerfed to a point where it's really not that important anymore the damage is negligible in most cases, the only thing that is propping up light attacks currently is the sets that use it.2 -

Yes. Why not?!
I have problems in hands. And that's why i cant use or make perfect rotation. So i use and i love Oakensoul... they call me "brainless"
If anyone dont have any problem... why you can't be so good as they? Why not? They are gods? They are and will be allways better then me. That's why i use 1barbuild and im very happy with that.
But why can't you? You have any kind of limitation? Use oakensoul if you wish.. or dont...

✭Didn`t like this point of oaken-casual gameplay with 3 (nw) to 6 (eso) skills. For me this isnt an mmo-gameplay. But we need to notice, even in upcoming mmo`s, that they are all reduce the skills. What is better? I hope that two bars will always bring the better/higher/advantages then just a controller-casual-gameplay.
However, barswapping with oakensould, even out of combat, should be a absolut nogo!1 -

I really undestand you. Ask to nerf Oakensoul is way more simple and easy. This way players with bad rotation can stay bad aslong they are stronger then 1bar builds.Edited by Red_chimera_oni on 13 March 2023 15:363 -
ZOS_HadeostrymodGreetings,
After further review we have decided to move this thread to a category we think is more appropriate for this topic.
Thank you for your understanding0 -
notyuu✭✭✭✭✭
✭✭They are asking for oakensoul nerfs due to the fact that it renders the adverage player basically moot as you are now capable of surpassing them with a build/gameplay style that requires only 1/10th of the effort and skill investment to achieve, which inturn has made them salty over their wasted time5 -
M0ntie✭✭✭✭✭Lol. Oakensoul builds seem about right. Its great that doing more content (such as vet trials) is opened up to more players. And as noted, experienced players with 2 bar builds can still out dps an Oakensoul build.
btw the link to the top dps on Asylum Sanctorum for Firesong only has 7/10 top dps as sorcs. And its nice for more players to be able to get the best skin in the game.
And if people are salty about the investment they made in a build only to have ZoS bring out the next thing that makes it redundant, you'd better get used to it. ZoS are always doing this and countless amounts of feedback hasn't stopped them.6 -
WinterHeart626✭✭✭✭All I’ve been reading into the “nerf HA builds” arguments is the following.
- we want vet trial content to become exclusive again. (You can’t deny this, there are multiple guilds with parse requirements of 70k plus for a vet trial, I even saw a guild state 75k for a vSS training run) you’re advocating for the new sudden surge of previously denied access to trial content players be once again shoved down into the mud, once again stagnating the games endgame into elite little cliques.
- - afore mentioned point above- the two bar elite also don’t like seeing those “plebeians” who were forced to basically “suck it up” and deal with the brags.
- essentially, what it’s boiled down to, from my understanding is veteran trials should be exclusively for the elite players who want to brag.
On topic- yes, two bars hit harder than one, the rotations a killer. I parsed 48k on a twin bar only to not be able to play for 3 days (yay for bad hand), got 88k on a HA build, yay! I can get into content, oh wait, the gatekeepers are here.6 -
Auldwulfe✭✭✭✭✭Here we go again...
Of course, the FACT that you can build a heavy attack build, without Oakensoul, and get the same damage with the same effort is completely wasted in the Crusade that these people are on, to take away from others, as a means of covering their own inadequacy.
Every time I see a "nerf Oakensoul" comment, what I read is that the person is unable to compete, and wants the rules changed for them......
