I am going to see if it applies the swirly air around my opponents legs, which is the surest sign of the immunity. But is there a better way?
I'm trying. When I noticed it most was on my stamina templar using biting jabs then hitting the mob that wasn't knocked back with reverberating bash or invasion. It could be something weird like the mobs are standing side by side so close that the code decides 'hey they are both in the range but only one can get the knock-back, they didn't define only one gets the immunity'. I also tend to circle the mobs so IDK if that's having some weird effect. I've switched weapons on that character atm but once I can be bothered I'll try with S&B to get it to work again. Got no way of posting a video tho.
Well, I think we do have to realize that the CC immunity was recently added by the designers themselves in patch 1.6.2. It was not something that the players noticed in the game and started to complain about-- rather, it was something the designers themselves changed about the game. I guess I just point this out to Gina because she said the designers are having a hard time duplicating the bug... it wasn't a bug. It was something they themselves added to the game with 1.6.2. So really, I wonder, how they can have problems finding something they themselves just added to the game, literally only a couple of weeks ago.
Actually concerns were raised about Puncturing strikes after PTS patch notes were posted. It was reported, asked about in ESO live but unfortunately it was ignored until there weren't post in forum with more then 10 pages...

Agreed. Whoever came up with the design should be shot in the foot and only admitted to hospital when he manages to find 3 other people willing to maim themselves the same way in order to accompany him.

Ultimately, any method of entering an enemy keep without breaking down the door is considered an exploit. Thanks for checking!

One of those useless abilities is Piercing Javelin! I think my mind was clouded when I few days ago spent skill points into this skill. It's so bad, almost no dmg that even it's CC bonus seems useless. I can't even think about situation where this skill is useful!Some men just want to watch the world burn...

I haven't seen anyone use it since beta, where I took it off my bar but others I knew just kept it because it looked awesome to impale someone with a spear. Looks like Tarzan, hits like Jane.1 -

✭It has uses ofc but its cost makes it stupid. There are better skills out there that does exactly the same thing PLUS some secondary effect along with more dmg potential.
Blazing Spear
Revebating Bash
Destructive Reach
Magnum Shot
And maybe Wrecking Blow
There is no reason for it being one of the highest cost and lowest dmg of spells. Same cost as BoL if im not wrong or slightly fewer.Welkynd [Templar/AD/EU]0 -

✭✭✭✭ZOS should grant Javelin the root ability, than it will be usefull as the only templar's root.3 -
Animal_Mother✭✭✭✭We dropped to the second page.
This weekend got a good long chance to game, for once. Looking at my skill bar are there any Templar skills that don't have any issues. As a stamina Templar I use:
- Puncturing Strikes (melee supplement for bow), well-documented concerns ;
- Eclipse, doesn't always fire on the subsequent targets when tackling multiple casters;
- Rushed Ceremony, delays;
- Cleansing Ritual, I still get unable to mount in Cyrodiil from time to time;
- Focus Charged, my only gap closer for dual wield sometimes experiences a delay;
- Sun Shield, I currently use Radiant Ward for up-front damage but understand well the concerns with Blazing Shield's cost/damage;
- Backlash, Purifying Light's healing pool doesn't always appear;
- Radiant Destruction, always changing constant tweaks;
- Restoring Aura, not a problem with the skill itself but corpses can disappear real fast if they have no lootables preventing the heal from Repentance.

This is a fair change, but ZOS tends to overbalance the Templar downwards pretty far before realizing they broke our toys. Did this ability bottom out on fixes yet?ZOS_GinaBruno wrote: »Templar- Dawn’s Wrath

But you know, priorities...6 -

Rhakon✭✭✭Wow... so much to fix, and all we get is one nerf after the other, as weakest pvp-class.
This nerf only adresses PvP...
Every class has anoying abilitys, like scales fear shadowcloak or Bolt Escape..

Naivefanboi✭✭✭✭ZOS_GinaBruno wrote: »As promised, here is an update for some of the abilities that were called out. Keep in mind we tried to focus only on abilities that appeared to be bugged, and not actual design decisions. We know some of the answers may seem a little vague, but we honestly just don't have a solid date yet for some of these fixes. Hope this helps, though, and let us know if you have any follow up questions!
- Focused Charge: This ability has a GCD that locks you out of any action for 1-2 seconds after each use. We are aware this is happening, and are working on a fix.
- Eclipse: After a successful spell reflect, you are unable to use any abilities for a few seconds. We are aware this is happening, and are working on a fix.
- Solar Barrage: This ability grants empower, but does not apply to AoEs. It turns out that the bonus damage wasn’t applying to itself, and we’re currently testing a fix for this.
- Sun Fire and Solar Flare: The travel speed of these projectiles is noticeably slower than other casted-projectile spells (such as Crystal Frags). We plan on increasing the travel speed for these projectiles in a future update.
- Breath of Life: This ability appears to have a consistent delay after activation. We plan on increasing the cast time for this ability in a future update.
- Puncturing Strikes: We’re seeing reports that this ability is giving a 4 second CC immunity to every target it hits, regardless if they are hit by the knockback. We’re currently investigating to see if this is a bug or working as intended, and will let you know when we have an answer.
Seeing this kind of stuff, these internal notes, is AWESOME. I would love to see this more often.
