Thank you for removing Shattered Paths Signet from pvp..

olsborg · June 29

And I hope you bring more much needed balance updates to pvp, preferably soon.

Doragren · June 29

Wow, that was really fast.

Great job ZOS!!

Praise the lord

It's rather disappointing to take out another build option instead of proper rebalancing

L_Nici · June 29

They did? When?

Heureka.

BetweenMidgets · June 29

Still wish they'd add a magicka cost to ele sus too... but I agree with you all, glad this was changed.

We do still have the build option. Status effects and pulse gank has been a thing since long before Signet arrived. Werewolves will do fine without it. The build options are still there. It just won't be 95% of players in higher MMR BGs wearing the same darn ring.

Classic ZOS… ignore real pts and release broken mythic, nerf it later on the live pts 😎

Is actually removed? I think y’all are reading it incorrectly. Looks like the bonus damage is gone but the random status effects on LAs went from 4 to 2 seconds………

RandomKodiak · June 29

This set's damage done with status effects now only applies to monsters

Shattered Path Signet: This set's damage done with status effects now only applies to monsters. Reduced the maximum damage bonus from 170% to 133%, and reduced the Ultimate required to reach the cap to 133, down from 170. Reduced the cooldown for applying Status Effects when at the maximum Ultimate threshold to 2 seconds at 133 Ultimate, down from 4s at 170.

Effectively removes it from PvP.

Yes it's actually removed from PvP. He didn't say removed from the game.

It also appears to be nerfed pretty heavily for PVE as well.

My build will work just as fine without that ring

To be fair those Status effects are much less of a nuisance if they don't deal 85% more damage anymore.

So 37% nerf plus maybe a 1-2% buff from the extra status effect application = 35% nerf and that's gentle? Ouch for PvE, glad the PvPers are happy but think it may have already removed it from PvE as well with that.

Effectively removes it from PvP.

In the spoiler it said this:

“We're making a handful of targeted adjustments to remove this set's overwhelming presence in PvP by removing the large damage bonus to status effects from PvP areas”

DestroyerPewnack · June 29

Ripperooni.

Yudo · June 29

-85% status damage
2x more procs at cap with 37 less ult needed to reach cap

The thing is signet proc is random that part is not the issue at all. The main problem was buff to multi procs form other sources. This is a clear nerf and will make less burst, very good.

Yudo · June 29

And yes this is removal from pvp because using this mythic will simply proc status effects every 2s IF you are at cap, only to drain your ulti all the time with no other effects. Drastic, but still happy.

IncultaWolf · June 29

Good riddance

Renato90085 · June 29

in pve maybe not a nerf

AllenaNightWood · June 29

thank god its gone from pvp

React · June 29

Great change. Status effects are effectively free damage procs and never should have become the primary source of damage in pvp. This was long overdue.

JustLovely · June 29

This is s good change and happened in reasonable time. Happily surprised about this. Didn't even know it was coming.

BardokRedSnow · June 29

I couldn’t care less one way or another, didn’t effect me at all in pvp, but it is funny how fast it got nerfed lol certain streamers gonna be hitting the drawing board again.

They could get me if I was mounted and not buffed up. Just one shot death while mounted. They were not biggie if you saw them coming though. I feel like ganking from range shouldn't really be a thing.

epic-buttkkr · June 29

So yet again we have just removed another mythic item from pvp.
this is becoming a VERY VERY unhealthy trend especially when signet did not need to become exclusive to pve. All it needed was a damage decrease, not FULLY removing it as an option for status effect builds in regards to pvp.

LadyGP · June 29

New shielding pot has entered the chat....

In all seriousness.. ball groups in PvP are at the height of.. annoyance/unkillable/massive lag spikes (server fps side it feels like).

We need to take a hard look at decisions like this. Ball groups shield stacking is already at an insane level and adding this just... arg.

(spits out coffee) "certain"

demonology89 · June 29

So I ran around like a chicken with it's head cut off to farm this mythic in NM just for it to be deleted in less than 2 weeks in PvP? So all the ball groups and small man groups running around with 4+ DKs isn't an "overwhelming presence"? The last OP mythic, Monomyth, never had an "overwhelming presence" in build diversity for the past 10+ months?
