Triggering vigor concept..

Sparxlost · January 26

This concept for a stamina purge (for pure stam builds) is a buff for stam builds and a nerf for vigor weilding hybrids.

Resolving vigors armor buff is replaces with a purge and the healing gets better and longer
BUT
the skill now costs 5k magicka and 5k stamina (if player runs out of mag then it costs just 6k stam )

The concept of vigor being a stamina skill is a concept of sheer willpower being capable of bringing to bring someone from the brink. a well trained (physically) warrior would be able to call upon this power of sheer will consistently enough to make it a staple among those who dedicate themselves to an active fighting style. (pure stam builds)

Magick has sort of taken priority in ESO, so i thought it would be fun to at least fantasize about what being a non magic meta would be like....

I prefer the resistance buff. Works well in PVE and PVP. Its the rare skill that everyone likes.

If you want to make Cleanse cheaper or give Efficient Purge a heal, I'm on board. But your proposed change to Vigor would make the only effective stamina healing skill more expensive, effectively punishing someone for running a stamina build. All for a purge, which anyone running in a group gets for free from a healer

Vigor is fine the way it is. Let's avoid changing what's working.

Purge should be handled with a lot of care, as such, a universal skill giving it should have pretty hard drawbacks like how the Support line Purge costs 5k+ magicka, but effects your team.

I'd much rather see self purges handled within classes than a universal skill. There is a pretty big gap between the classes with or without in class purges right now after the dot changes to make them 20-30 seconds.

Quick examples:

(Sorc) Dark Deal morphs = Purge 2 effects on cast.
(NB) Siphoning Attack morphs = Purge up to 4 effects when the skill ends. (+1 effect every 5 seconds).
(DK) Battle Roar passive = Purge 1 effect every 50 ult spent.
(Necro) Expunge morphs = Decent purge, but everything else about the skills feel underwhelming, should add some extra bonuses to them.
(Templar) Ritual = Great the way it is. 2 effects on damage morph or 5 effects on heal morph. Synergy for allies to purge all effects.
(Warden) Betty Netch = Great the way it is. 1 effect on cast and passively every 5 seconds.
(Arcanist).. not sure what would be thematically good for them. Maybe on Tome-Bearer's Inspiration like Warden's Netch, but that's a little too similar? IDK.

I'd also like a purge for in Werewolf form if every class is given access to a purge. A purge could probably be tied to Hircine's Bounty and morphs, since it's the only skill in the toolkit with the target of Self.

Fair enough

With the state DoT abilities are in I would be very careful with throwing purges around.
