    LoL, I was going to comment before watching the video and tell you not to stand in red too... But I will admit, you are actually really good!(maybe even OP)

    Now seriously, cmon man, you went solo against 10 plus players, others watching in the distance. That is quite the commotion. You were being focused by at least 3 that I can see when the siege hit you at half health... The only damage I see that was crazy, was yours. Is this your first time dieing in a while?

    haha trust me it's not easy to 1vX as a DK magicka build after update 1.6. Also, I would of been able to tank that soul assult. The point I was making is that people are so inclined to use siege that when you are out numbered they will still use siege on you. Also, it shows that I'm not a noob, which gives me the credibility.

    One of my proposal to minimize or maybe even fix the lag(idk if this would work) is to minimize animations when there are over x amount out people in a condensed area. Like change the animations of healing springs.

    Yeah, but this is a game not a real life simulation. If it was to be a real life simulation than people should die from hunger (and no not from food buffs).

    I am not saying you are not a good fighter - seriously. I still am saying though - siege is bad And will kill you.

    It does seem kind of cheap that a good 1vsX can get crushed by siege. But there is so much more of that 1vsX to be had now, because people aren't blobbing up as much, just have to be more cautious.

    And that is where we (sorry really) disagree. I think it should.

    Also Y I have been Empress on Wabbalag and Skullcrusher NA and no - I have never died to siege - I quit pvp because I was over whining from pvpers about everything.

    Yes I agree siege hits hard - and I agree it should hit hard.

    This in itself is no reflection of your ability against other players - to that /bow or /kowtow - but at the end of the day siege aoe is No.

    Soo00oooo..
    Yesterday me and few others were sieging a resource tower inside which a well know group of strawberries were trying to set up a farm. While sieging the said tower, I noticed a few (5 or so) cherries set up seige a few steps behind me, to siege me while i was still on my siege.

    Basically, instead of trying to sneak up to me and try to kill me while i was distracted (since i was sieging), these clever individuals decided the best course of action is to set up siege just a few steps behind me and 1 shot me 'cause why not ? Siege should be able to do that right ?
    Why bother fighting people using abilities when you can just Siege the crap out of them ?
    Such high level strats should be encouraged right ?

    Yeah, but see it's the zerg that makes the servers lag. People will still zerg and people will still blob up. It is tougher for organized groups to blob up now but one way they can counter siege is keep on moving as a group and swing around to hit the siege line. So, like I said this is not the right approach ZOS is making because like I said people will zerg and they will be organized.

    I think impact damage should be as it is, maybe a tad lower. I'm gettin hit for like 16k sometimes with 5 piece heavy...

    The DoT on fire damage I think should be lower. All I'm doing now is spamming purge-purge-purge, since a tick or two after initial impact will kill you if you didn't get a heal.

    Even if a person was to invest everything into max health the dot would kill you if the initial impact damage didn't kill you.
