Please fix Meteor. 40k+ Shooting Stars and 40-60k Fall damage bug!

LazyLewis · March 2015

So there's a bug with Meteor and multiple Knock back abilities plus a couple more things that I reported the day after 1.6 launched and has still not been fixed and now I have to take it to the forums. Plus Meteor itself so doing way to much damage. One of the screen shots below I was stood in the meteor (talons no stam left) for about 3 seconds. I think this is way too strong.

This first screen shoot i was stood about 3 more meters up the stairs and got the knockback from Meteor (no idea why there is no damage on the report from it)

So this one the meteor was targeted at my before I went in the door of the tower and then when I walked through the door I was suddenly outside dead (all of this on the bottom floor)

This last report here is me getting caught in Meteor for 3 seconds....to much damage? Nova ticks for 3-4k a second....so does banner....veil.......Why should meteor be able to do some much damage in a few seconds?

I have died multiple times from this....20+ and I do not see any pattern why it is doing this. I have been on stairs, flat surfaces. open field...everywhere this has killed me for 40K+ fall damage
PLEASE FIX ZOS....GAME BREAKING!

Fall Damage bug is a bug, Meteor is just someone stacking spell damage and having all of their buffs active at once as well as being a glass cannon build, they probably hit you for 10-15k then your own idioicy for standing in the DoT did the rest.

I wonder.....

All attribute points into Magicka, all magicka enchants, three Spell Damage enchants, three to four lots of spell damage from item sets.

Step 1 - Cast Structured Entropy
Step 2 - Acquire 20% more spell damage
Step 3 - Acquire Empower-whatever-I'm-called-buff from casting Mage's Guild ability [Next attack does 20% more damage]
Step 4 - Press R
Step 5 - Win the game

Honestly spell damage is so delicious right now, as soon as I get my Nirnhoned Torug's Pact Swords on the EU Megaserver [please sell them to me someone, I pay good MSK] my heavy armor tank will have spell damage from item sets x 3, which is decent. Combined with Nirnhoned and the 100% spell pen? Thanks Zeni, don't mind if I do.

Anyone else having lots of Nirnhoned + spell damage stacking fun?

If you dragon leap someone during the lag, it gives them 80,000 fall damage instantly and 1-shots them.

Hypertionb14_ESO · March 2015

^ crazy to see other fonts on this forum.

nice tho.

oh yes, fix the trampoline of death bug ZOS.

Sacadon · March 2015

If on a flat surface and you are still getting the fall damage, then yep that doesn't seem right. But 4-5K fall damage from getting knocked off of the stairs is normal... Not 50K though, clearly.

That's so sad, that it is hilarious.

Roechacca · March 2015

Nerf incoming . Noticed the fall damage bug tonight . Almost 30K in Fall damage from meteor lol . Had a good laugh .

Roechacca · March 2015

@ZOS_JessicaFolsom ^ WTH ? Again lol

whiteshadow711jppreub18_ESO · March 2015

That one with Fall dmg of 59K OMG thats like sooooo crazy

Aquanova · March 2015

I think it's a bug with fall dmg. I got hit with destructive reach or what ever the destro staff ability is called, and got knocked off of a outer keep wall and it was like insta kill from the fall dmg. I know the des touch doesn't do that much dmg.

Valymer · March 2015

I've taken thousands of fall damage from bouncing off a tiny rock while running on a max speed horse with Rapid Maneuver...the problem isn't really Meteor, it's the way the game measures height and speed when calculating fall damage or something more basic like that.

Aimelin · March 2015

a bug in eso? no way .... get out of here ...

Irista · March 2015

Yeah the fall damage is a bit bonkers (albeit freaking haaaaalarious).

I can stack spell power, pop my buffs, toss on elemental weakness, power surge and hit R and wreck things. If you STAND in the AOE left over.. that's your own silly fault....

Meteor/Ice comet itself isn't broken (tested in PvP with all the proper buffs and debuffs up on bloodspawn I think I've seen roughly a 40k initial meteor hit) it's supposed to hit like a truck.

@Irista Then I believe I am doing my job correctly! Cheerio!

It must be embarrassing for the devs in the game industry to have this many bugs and issues all the time.

Heishi · March 2015

If they had added a third usable axis for things such as underwater swimming from the start, it would be easier for them to measure fall dmg based on distance, not air time.

trimsic_ESO · March 2015

Is meteor considered as a projectile, so we can reflect it?

Merlin13KAGL · March 2015

Two things:

Block
Fall damage bug, as stated. I've eaten 30k just stepping off the first level of the outer wall to the inner courtyard before.

Anyone could confirm if meteor ignores immovable ? I'm not sure if it's working as intented.

Until last week it was.

But you know that was ridiculous, right?

Robbmrp · March 2015

You would expect a Meteor to the face to do a bit of damage although not 40k worth!

LegacyDM · March 2015

Agreed. Shooting star and radiant destruction damsge is too high. Also how does one spam shooting star to hit twice in a row? I got nailed in a spam of 2 seconds with shooting star by the same guy twice. No way he could have generated ultimate that fast. To hit me twice unless I'm missing something?

Armitas · March 2015

I look at the added 50 ultimate cost to banner of might and then shootstar and just scratch my head. I just don't get it.

Oh yeah isn't damage in cyrodiil reduced by 15%? ahahahaha I don't even, turtles, all the way down, turtles.

The person may have used his ult THEN his armor bonus proc'd sending out another meteor. There is an armor set that has a chance to send a meteor out

You've obviously never played BattleField 4 then.

18 months later and in its still in Alpha (it's an insult to other games in Beta to call BattleField 4 still in Beta).

The 40k Damage I was exposed for possibly around 3 seconds (Ridicuously OP)..Don't appreciate your remarks. Commenting on standing in the DoT is constructive feedback but calling some an idiot is you being a ***. Please only leave constructive feedback without the sly remarks.

So at the moment Meteor does ridiculous damage, it knocks back, has a ridiculous;y powerful DoT and gains ultimate per person hit with Shooting Star morph. OP much.

Emma_Overload · March 2015

LOL at the sudden hate for Meteor... do you guys even realize that Meteor is exactly the same as it's always been?

The ONLY reason you're seeing so many people using now is because all the other Ultimates are nearly useless thanks to the 1.6 nerfs to Ultimate regeneration.

Instead of calling for nerfs to the only decent remaining Ultimate for Magicka users, you should be calling for a BUFF to Ultimate generation so people would go back to using the other Ultimates!
