Quick cloak

montgomery.luke07b16_ESO
Has anybody done any testing with this ability and the increased siege damage? Does it reduce the siege damage by 20%?? If so this skill is immensely valuable in cyrodil. I have always been a fan of this ability but have been unable to test it recently due to work commitments.

    Tagging this to remind myself to check, but I'd be surprised if it didn't.

    Ninja-edit: because typing the word "to" was too hard in the sentence above.

    Exploits suck. Don't blame just the game, blame the players abusing them!

    Yes on the testing with the dark cloak morph and use of it successfully for several hours last night. It reduces fire siege damage via removal of the DOTs. Edit: my reply is confirming yes on good mitigation, but not of any particular %. I tested on NA and PTS (although siege damage is old way there).

    No I've not tested the shadowy disguise morph but plan to do so.

    Today I need to finish testing of healing ward. Yesterday it provided no benefit. But the 6 sec duration made it clunky having the player fire at me in time to be 100% confident and we ran out of time.

    At the moment, cloak, mistform and purge appear to be the only mitigation options for NBs and/or any DOT removal skills I'm missing, but no shields available to protect AFAIK.

    Yeah yeah, red circles my ass... easier said than done when you've 4 of them converging on you from every direction and hitting for 20-35K. And siege shields don't move with you.

    Quick cloak is not the same thing as dark cloak. It is a dual wield skill. And there are a lot of ways to mitigate siege: http://forums.elderscrollsonline.com/en/discussion/160940/siege-hurts-heres-how-to-make-it-not

    Siege isn't hitting you for 25k on the initial hit regardless of what you are wearing though, so I assume some of this post is hyperbole anyway. The circles aren't always avoidable, that's called gameplay. They almost always are, though, if you're paying attention to your surroundings.
