That's it, that's the post. I'm so tired of constant 10k one-shots death recaps, which cannot be countered. This set is so overpowered that even after the inevitable nerf I suspect it will still be OP.

It’s not just the Null Arca hit. It’s also the critical hit that procs the Null Arca hit. You could eat a 22k Incap with a side order of 10k Null Arca and be made to choke down a 14k spec bow with all the weapon glyph and Hurricane damage that comes with it within 2 gcds, and be dead before you even hear the spec bow go off.
The Null Arca set’s tooltip is absolutely too high. I’ve seen some that hit as hard as an ultimate, which is insane for a proc set.

✭✭✭No. Null Acra is just fine. This is like the flimsy campaign earlier this year by duelists who wanted Relequen nerfed.
Stop trying to nerf strong PVE sets because the set showed up in a death recap in Cyrodiil.13 -

Or just give it "Against Monsters" as a modifier.9 -

I wish they were a bit more liberal with the use of that modifier.
I feel like so many problematic sets that popped up and wrecked balance could have been easily prevented, and we'd have had a better game overall for PvE and PvP both.11 -

Actually a pretty big fan of the Against Monsters thing. Keeps things pretty dang separate for PVE and PVP. Now if they would just add that to bloody Rush of Agony…"Buzz Lightyear toy isle shot" Stormcalling/Animal Companions/Assassination PVP build hater

Fine with this, too. Its probably the correct remedy, seeing as Null Acra is a trials set1 -
aslan06✭✭✭Arcanists are fine in pvp, at least I don't have much trouble with then as nb.
But wardens and sorcs (especially sub-classed) are impossible to kill.1 -

✭✭✭✭✭They don't need to nerf the damage, just slow down the projectile and add some sort of telegraph to the player character that it's targeting while the projectile is traveling.
It's fine to have strong procs IF you can see or hear them coming enough to consistently counterplay. Null Arca has a telegraph on the wearer but nothing to tell you if someone in the back of a pack or offscreen is launching it at you. Things like Spec Bow have a distinct and loud noise to tell you when someone's launched it at you (provided they aren't using the new skill style lmao). Null Arca has a sound effect, but it's quiet and sounds like half the other sets and abilities in the game.Edited by CameraBeardThePirate on 23 December 2025 01:262 -

Spec bow sound goes off at a minimum of 0.5s before the bow hits, as it has a minimum travel time. So either you are experiencing time in reverse, or exaggerating.
Obviously you aren't experiencing time in reverse. But as always people who die in PvP greatly exaggerate the things they dislike, the things that kill them. Because they don't want to die to them, and rather than improve, such as blocking the incap - which is incredibly easy - or blocking/dodging bow proc - which is incredibly easy.
Both of those things take 0.5s from cast to hit (potentially longer with bow proc), and average human reaction time is 0.25s. So you can react twice in the allotted time to both of them and avoid death entirely.
But no lets nerf a set, again, because someone dies to it.MAKE AZUREBLIGHT GREAT AGAIN

Do I need to go on? If you can hit that 0.25 second reaction time through all of that, good job Barry Allen. But if you disagree with that example, I could come up with several other burst combos. Or, I could point out that your post does nothing to negate the point that Null Arca hits too hard and needs to be nerfed. Not because I die to it, but because 10k damage for free between GCDs is utterly insane.4
