Blazing Shield exploit NOT fixed!

Pmarsico9

Blazing Shield (Sun Shield morph)

Ranks II-IV now properly increase in strength when hitting nearby targets.
Fixed an issue where this ability would only damage one nearby enemy, instead of all nearby enemies, if it did enough damage to kill the target.
Fixed an issue where this ability would occasionally fire area-of-effect damage twice.
Fixed an issue where other damage shields could be added to the explosion value specifically with Ranks II-IV.

Double check the bolded:

OTHER
OTHER

Aka:

They still haven't fixed the shield stacking on itself via deliberate exploiting by continuously reapplying the shield each time damage is taken, thereby building up a battery of explosive energy since it is not expelling the damage unless it hits something.

This code should not be this hard to fix, nor should it be hard to ban those purposefully abusing this.

I didnt think it would be fixed. It wasnt even bugged to add the strength of other shields to the damage.

What happens is it gets cast multiple times when out of its damage range and it stores that damage up. I witnessed a templar doing exactly this kn a 1v1 fight and I stopped him in time to take a 2k hit from it. With just blazing shield. They knowingly stand at range and chain cast it because the know the result.

But, zos is a bunch of exploiter protectors and we cant post concrete evidence. Any actial bug abuse video gets removed when they know they actually cheating. Like im going to do any kjnd of professional video editinh because of their nonsensical up forum rule.

Just tested recasting shield. It resets the shield. If no damage has been taken the shield goes off and on. If damage has been taken it pops the AoE. If that's the only method of exploiting blazing shield stacking damage then it has been fixed.

This post seems to claim it has been "fixed" in this patch - no more accumulation of damage. Has anyone else tested it yet?

Not just "seems" to claim. Does claim.

As I said, if recasting before expiry is the only way to exploit blazingshield stacking then it has been fixed.

I've played 300 hours of PVP, and I've only been killed by blazing shield bug twice. I guess that's why ranged characters reign supreme!

no fear in the rear.

I fear for my rear every time I enter Cyrodiil.
