Can we bring back Sparks?

It was literally my favorite ability... And since returning recently, I was very disappointed to see it go.

Was there a lot of people asking for it to change while I was absent from the game and the forums? Or, was it just a random change?

They removed miss chance entirely from the game. I don't any players complained, seemed only the devs made the choice. Lost the miss chance from ash cloud too (DK skill)

Blinding Flashes from Templar is gone to.
Also missed here.

I loved sparks as well. It was my favorite move as my nightblade. But I suppose since miss change was removed, it would make sense for that to go as well. Also it's fine but i think this thread would do better in the Combat & Character mechanics section.

I liked Sparks before with the Chance to Miss. Now I never use it.

That might be the key, don't' use the ability as ZOS has stated that they will monitor skill usage and adjust those skills that are not used to be more effective. I don't even have a point in the new skill as it is pretty useless now.

That's what I don't understand... Who the hell wanted miss chance removed?

I've never seen a single complaint about it. I thought it was a great feature. Hell, I've always thought that medium armor passives should give a small dodge chance in itself.

Sparks made dual wield worth while.

Miss chance was completely useless against things you may have actually needed miss chance for.

It was part of the skill line rebalancing that took place in Update 5 as I recall. Sparks and Blinding Light were replaced and the miss chance for Ash Cloud was removed. The issue isn't that people asked for the change. I know that for Blinding Light it was said that it was an example of an underused skill. It was replaced by Radiant Destruction.
