I can remember when people thought word processor programs was cheating. Oh and no spell checkers either.

Oh, how is it insidious?
It has no original thought yet, it relies on data it has learned from previously posted data, mostly from the Internet and pieces it together.
But I understand, harder for old people to accept change.

Re: Why is there a timer at the end of a dungeon?

In layperson terms, these instances are probably not always on and only created when a team queues into a dungeon. This costs money to spin up and maintain so closing it when the dungeon is complete is a garbage clean up activity that saves zos money.
It is very normal.
As I mentioned earlier, the same people can walk into the same dungeon solo and have unlimited time to explore. They are also making solo versions of dungeons that will have these extra instances loaded up. So the time limit does not make sense in this instance.
I did think and wonder though, does the instance keep the full group tied to it until it closes? If so, that could be why they want it to shut down so quick. A person could not queue for a fresh version of the same instance if their player ID was tied to it and another player was exploring.
I don't know about that being the case. As soon as someone drops group they can't go back to that same dungeon on their own. It opens a new one right away. They can only return by traveling to the player in the dungeon. So seems like that proves the dungeon is only open to the last player and then only for a few short seconds.
Also, it doesn't really matter, because only a tiny fraction of players group for dungeons. The fastest pop is for daily just to get the bonus xp. There is no incentive at all for "Specific Dungeon" or "Vet dungeon" if you are trying to grind out a dungeon set that you want. ESO says "Best of luck to you" "Have fun sitting for 30 -60 trying to get a specific vet dungeon"..

Future generations will be mentally weak if we keep this up. Already we see the effects of it on the minds of adults.
The same was said about calculators and personal computers.
Yeah, except calculators aren't causing people to become mentally ill.
ETA: And actually, calculator use excessively discourages you from memorizing math skills, so yes, it creates mental weakness.

Is lag a problem in those modes? If not, there is no need. Vengeance was created to address the Cyro lag first and foremost, to which it largely succeeds.

Re: A poll about crossplay

If there are forced name changes, they will either give free tokens or ask you to give the character a new name when you log in. That’s currently how it works if players are forced to change names already due to something like a name that break ToS.
The main question though is how many people would be okay with doing that. RP-focused players may have had these names for years, so being forced to change them (especially if the conflict was from someone who played for a week and then left permanently) would be akin to forcing them out of the game, and many would take it as such.
I myself have a minimum of 6 pages of backstory for each of my characters - they are each incredibly important to me; I spent ages agonizing over their name and fashion and getting them perfect. It would be a heartbreaking if I had to change them after pouring so much time into them… especially since the benefits to having crossplay do nothing for my personal playstyle, so it feels like I’m losing so much and gaining nothing.

Refreshing, someone who isn't just a blatantly biased nb main asking for nonsensical buffs to merciless resolve. While trying to claim everyone has been using blastbones and restoring light as the meta.
Guys it does like 20% more damage than take flight does.....its ok to redistribute some of merciless resolve's damage back to the rest of the kit.

NB needs an actual skill that applied major resolve and through passive. When I’m on a NB I always forget proccing it.
Then for the God's sake tell us what makes NB's damage good. I've asked this multiple times, why didn't you answer? Because it's obviously bad, there is nothing that would reinforce your statement because it's just simply wrong, you just always change subjest or reply "no it's good". I've texted multiple arguments and reasons why NB's damage is poor and all you do is say "no it's good". You just want class you don't like nerfed. It's probably because you just don't read my messeges considering you said that nobody talks about NB survivability when it was literally the first thing I mentioned in my original post.
Also NB doesn't need any skill to proc resolve, it's automatically uptimed with path and NB really needs that because of the lack of slots since NB skills mostly just give you 1 thing. Your sustain skill is just a sustain skill, your brutality skill is just a brutality skill, your special damage skill is just a damage skill etc. For example warden's sustain skill also gives brutality and warden's special damage skill also applies major AND minor breach
I prefer race against time when I’m on a NB for minor force. So it doesn’t really help. NB needs a dedicated skill for major resolve
“What makes a NB damage good?” Seriously? Second best spammable (after DK), high crit chance, high crit damage, best execute (Jesus beam is ahh now), element of surprise (with invisibility), second best burst damage after DK if not the best burst, need I say more?…
I say it again
One thing I don’t see people complaining about with NB is how squishy it is. It’s the main reason I don’t like playing (I hate clutching on invisibility). That’s the real problem with NB, it has never been a lack of damage. Stop trying to mislead people.
Yeah you need to say more because nothing you said makes sence
"Second best spammable" - no it's not, DK's and necro's spammable are better, BFB(universal spammale btw) is better. Nothing makes it special it's avg dmg and just applies minor breach and off balance
"high crit chance" - yes but no good skills to crit with
"high crit damage" - no. It's just 10% passive, DK's, arcanist's, templar's and warden's passive grant more crit damage
"best execute" - first - no it's not, and second there is no way you can slot it because NB heavily lacks free skill slots, it's impossible to keep other important things and slot execute at the same time
"element of surprise" is this a joke? NB is the most predictable class possible, there is no element of surprise whatsoever and out of invisibility you can't possibly deal enough damage to kill someone properly geared unless you have a full gank build
"second best burst damage after DK if not the best burst" - this is a straight up lie, I explained why it is multiple times but even there you don't say how come NB has some sort of "burst". You just say it does but it doesn't, I proved and explained why but you refuse to read my messages and just say "no it's good". WHAT burst does NB have? Tell us. How can NB BURST someone? Let's make a simulation: I just stand doing nothing and you are NB. What will you press to "burst" me?
Skulls is better than Surprise? Arc is better than NB? These are absurd and hyperbolic claims that undermine any good argument you have.
Yeah this guy is making some wild claims. Apparently Offbalance being able to stun off GCD with a medium attack is also not strong and its somehow the weakest stun in the game. Even though you have Assassination letting you pair surprise attack guaranteed crit and sunder proc into a medium weave animation canceled stun into your now undodgeable merciless proc with a roughly 56% assassination crit chance.........Dont worry restoring light and blastbones is the real meta apparently
Re: U50 Feedback Thread for Combat Refresh: Werewolf
Fights today vs Pelican (4/28, post week 3 adjustments)
No Class Mastery Passives in on his end
With Class Mastery Passives in on his end
WW still insanely strong after yesterday's adjustments. He's got 45k HP in these fights as well, and outheals nearly all damage due to the sheer amount of offensive healing he's still receiving from the WW toolkit, buffed health recovery, and conservation of energy class passive.
Still arguably the strongest possible thing to play 1v1, but probably more reasonable now outside of this scenario. I'd say yesterday's adjustments hit the mark in regards to reigning in the power level a bit.
I'd like to see conservation of energy's healing brought down still, but many people have given that feedback across the appropriate channels. It also seems problematic to me that most of the heals are scaling on health, encouraging WWs to build 40-50k HP for maximum healing power.
This isn't a WW specific problem - health scaling heals/shields in general are extremely problematic in PVP. Really don't think they should exist the same way the do on the PVE side of the game, where they're intended for tanks to use as a self heal.
I wanted to comment that Werewolf is now stronger in pve than before (and on live) and still much better in pvp. After seeing this I am slightly uncertain again, but still think it should be seen now how it goes on Live.
Relequen nerfed and Static Reverb, the 2 things that bothered me the most. Evidently WW did not even need them. Now Conservation of Energy has to stop scaling with max HP and it's okay.
