Yes - because that's how Battle Spirit works.
Re: do you ever use cp 150 gear vs cp 160 gear
When I started playing, for the first years when I was not much dedicated I used to craft CP150, also because I liked to experiment back then and try and change gear often, so it would be a waste and unsustainable to make everything CP160.
I now have thousands of every CP160 mat but I hoard them and never sell them "just in case".
What I discovered, btw, is that nowadays I find myself using Transmute Crystals more than crafting mats.

Re: do you ever use cp 150 gear vs cp 160 gear
only for the 1st week of 16 becoming the new VR ranks when the game went from v14 to v16 as there wasnt many mats available at that time and i didnt want to use up all my telvar to buy mats id get just playing the game
Re: Faction lock
When I started to PvP in Icereach (which was not faction locked) it was just constant AP trains. Fighing with players who when they couldn't push or do more, they would swap team and retake the same keeps.
I don't care so much for the rewards for Cyro or the leaderboard but would not enjoy if players would could just relog to another alliance at a whim.
I have also seen group of players relog to another alliance just to get to another players and write to/about them via the zonechat of that alliance then swap back.
I enjoy playing for my alliance and I feel like when I play then I play with the hand i'm delt. Sometimes we do good sometimes we do not so good
Not against a short term lock, or make Gray Host a 7 or 14 day campaign so people who wish can swap around more frequently.
I thought we are getting a medium Cyrodiil too in addtion Vengence? Maybe this should be open or they should consider keeping Blackreach as is.

Re: You've nerfed the worst class in this PTS
Wings is a relic of a long bygone era where DK had little ability to catch a quick ranged player. Either it needs a nerf or BETTER YET - DK needs a permanent snare.
Re: Skill styles for light / heavy attacks
I like this idea. After all there are many styles of swordsmanship and combat. If this is implemented I hope they won’t lean in to the realm of anime’s ridiculous exaggerations.
Re: How well you understand this game and mechanics? [Oakfather Retribution]
You have to remember though that your stat sheet is not actually connected to what is going on. You cant rely on the ESO stat sheet to be correct.
There was a similar situation with onslaught where the statsheet would give you pen based on YOUR resists. So if I was a 30k resist PvP build running DovRha and going up to about 50k resists, when I onslaught an enemy it would show I suddenly have +50k pen. Which is hard to test because the point of onslaught was to get perfect pen on your target so it was hard to tell if you were ACTUALLY getting 50k pen or if you were only getting the other persons resists worth of pen.
At the end of the day the statsheet does its own calcs and sometimes they pulled info from the wrong userID in the code.

Re: You've nerfed the worst class in this PTS
Did you describe the burst of Nightblade as Incap + Surprise attack instead of Merciless Resolve, the hardest hitting skill in the game? Dragonknight is the king of burst without contest; but Nightblade is and will be even moreso the 2nd best burst.
I am not at all concerned for Nightblade burst or gankers, because they will shred as always. I am concerned about what lies outside of this. What will you do in an age of wing spammers who half your spectral bow's damage and have far beyond 30k HP? If you cannot burst them (no ranged class currently can. Traditional Sorc suffers in this same regard) then they get up and heal to full.
Every other class you can most likely eat up, except toxic Wardens who break things with Shimmering Shield. But what other playstyle do you have besides burst? That is the real question, and I think Nightblade is in this one-sided category and has not many (strong enough) options outside of that. Surprise Attack is top 3 of the best spammables in pvp, but you will not pressured a meta HoT build with this alone.
Please read my post before texting something like this
Why didn't I take incap+merciless "combo" into consideration? Because anyone who have played PVP for at least a few weeks will always dodge merciless. It's not guaranteed, predictable and there is too much time to react. Back in the day I thought it may take some reaction, but in reality it doesn't. Found it out in a few funny ways: I tried playing PC NA for a bit where I have 300 ping and I dodged every single merciless after incap, didn't get hit a single time. But that's nothing, once I logged to duel my friend when I came back after my other friend's birthday where we had a drinking game that didn't go well for me, I guess at this point I had 1000+ ping inside my head but I still dodged all of the bow procs. It doesn't take reaction or skill to dodge it at all. But even if I would take it into consideration incap+merciless still deals less damage than db+bb+bfb, let alone DK's combo.
Anyone with half a brain will dodge incap+merciless, if you take it into consideration then I"ll say arcanist is op because arc can kill anyone if they just stand and eat their beam, because it's the same thing as not doding bow after incap
NB doesn't have any burst whatsoever compared to other classes
I did read it Prionyx. I stand by it still because Merciless being dodgable, particularly as a ranged skill, is something shared by many skills. You say that Crystal Fragments is somehow superior to Merciless, even though it has not only less damage, but has the same minimum travel time issue and gets dodged.
What should outrage us much more than this is the shameless 50% damage mitigation DK Wings (one of the most used and spammed skill) grants against both of these skills. So if you would have mentioned this, I would be with you. Otherwise, this is nothing uniquely detrimental about Merciless over any other ranged skill. Merciless actually activates faster than Crystal Fragments by the way; hence harder to dodge.
