Active Armor Skills

Make there a restriction, it is just ridiculous that players that use light armor are able to use immovable.
Imo it there should be a requirement of at least 4 parts of the respective armor to be able to use the skill.

This would really help to get this game balanced in the right direction.

    The light armor skill is pretty stupid compared to Immovable

    Rather then a requirement of "wear X parts of the correct armor", I would prefer to see some sort of scaling with the number of corresponding armor items worn.

    For example: scale shield strength of harness magicka with number of light armor pieces; scale the chance for evasion for evasion with the number of medium armor pieces.
    Since immovable is pretty much a binary on-off state (one can not scale the degree of CC immunity) I'd propose to scale the duration with number of heavy armor pieces - say 1.5 seconds per piece of heavy armor?

    @Morvul Yeah that would be an option, but the duration hast to be 0 with 0 parts of heavy armor.

    @Makkir Light armor is strong enough in my opinion, with the possibility of using immovable it is just over the top. I absolutely can not agree with your argument.

    Harness magicka is probably the best PvP skill in game

    Also, heavy armor gives you bonuses in blocking and cc break, running heavy armor means you will probably block more or rely on cheap cc breaking. Running immovable + heavy is silly :wink:

    you can't use resto staff skills while wearing a bow. why should you be able to use heavy armor skill while wearing light armor?!

    It's not, blocking needs to be actively done. Running a heavy amor build needs you to be un-cc-able for a certain time to get your burst out.

    If you have to interrupt your burst-phase to block cc, every light armor and resto player will use this dmg break to bubble and heal up if necessary.

    IMO you should have to wear at least 2 pieces of said armor.
