How actually works the damage part of the skill. If I cast the skill on 4 players and their shields are destroyed will each of them do AoE damage (4*200)? If the skill works like that it will be really OP in big groups.
Lately I started to see frequently this skill in the death recap.

I tried to report the potential of that skill before it got big almost 2 months ago so that we could skip a rotation of the FOTM cycle. If you do the math to it's greatest logical conclusion you can see why. They said "we will definitely forward this to the appropriate team", but as you can see the skill remains the same so I can only surmise it's WAI.Edited by Armitas on July 16, 2014 1:38PMRetired.

Why, barely anyone actually uses it. Healer DK's wouldn't have it either, they would choose the other morph for increased healing. its not going to wipe out the impulse spam group by using only it, it only helps.
Actually, I shouldn't even ask why. Its because its on Dragonknight. Obvious reason

It's not that, I'm actually a DK myself. I wanted to avoid another phase of broken skills in the game before it hit by warning them. We would probably agree on that notion so I think we disagree in it's potential. The way I see it is that a 6 target attack, Impulse, hits 6 people. Those 6 people have the damage of that impulse reduced, and they explode hitting a maximum total of 36 people (that is assuming they put an aoe cap at all on it). It's a huge damage multiplier. One impulse turns into 7,200 worth of potential damage against the impulser group.Edited by Armitas on July 16, 2014 4:28PMRetired.

demonlkojipub19_ESO✭✭✭✭✭Nothing wrong with its current power and its hardly "broken" or "overused. It still only hits 6 people per fragment, and for less damage than impulse can do.
What is "Broken" and "overused" is impulse. That is what needs the nerf.Edited by demonlkojipub19_ESO on July 16, 2014 6:56PM1 -

If I cast the shield on 6 players and all of them are hit by a guy who uses impulse each of the players with shield will do 200 damage. It is 1.2k damage. I don't know how many people will receive the shield when I cast it.demonlkojipub19_ESO wrote: »Nothing wrong with its current power and its hardly "broken" or "overused.

6 people. And that is how it is supposed to work. Make you afraid to run into a group of players and start just spamming. Tho, not many DK's run with fragmented shield on their bars, and I dont always do it either. Not much fear until people catch on and start protecting their parties from the "FOTM".
Should, since most of cyrodil likes to spam impulse or other similar class based aoe's.Edited by demonlkojipub19_ESO on July 16, 2014 7:13PM1 -

demonlkojipub19_ESO✭✭✭✭✭You have to be with a group of people that don't run away or scatter when they see a force come too, or else it doesn't really do you much good.0

Kiljaz✭✭✭There's a bug with this skill. If the effect ends while you're on a horse it will dismount you even if nothing is around. It's viewed by the game as activating a skill.1
