Disable all Coldharbour siege weapons and fix Radiant magelight.

Dahood2

These devs absolutely gave up on this game. The coldharbour siege weapons STILL have no animation or indicator that they've been fired. They're impossible to avoid.

Also can you please for the love of fod fix Radiant magelight? It dies not detect any invisible targets. My god hot fix your game or just sell it to a company that will

Vizier

ummm....

When people shoot at me with could harbour siege I get indicators on the ground. Are you sure that it's not an issue with your graphic settings / low fps / server lag? When I set graphics higher than my PC can handle or the server lags out, some aoe will be invisable.

Nothing to do with the game, everything to do with end user's GPU.

That maybe for PC. On consoles its well known and being taken advantage of.

Ah. This one is still getting used to clarifying everything with which platform being used.

Radiant magelight seems to work for me, but I literally have to be on top of the person for it to detect them. (But if it's a NB invising, it does let me see them)

If you are attacking a keep, fire your siege, alt off and apply shields = simple
dont stay on siege to get shot with counter

stat shows, fixing a bug will have 30% chance of introducing a new bug. so its better to let them take their time to come up with a good solution and fully test it before they release the fix.

That's not the problem. The issue is not being able to see the animation to react to it. It's not even like only the red circle is missing. You can't see or hear the coldharbor siege weapons going off. You could be standing nowhere near siege but if the coldharbor operator decides to target you it's impossible to know until you're dead.

Coldharbour sieges are totally broken on xbox. No sound, no animation, no circle. You can even have them on a keep while attacking on it will show up as 0/20.

Dont rely on red circles on the ground.

All cold harbour shoot massive silver balls of flaming death. They are obvious

This is like people who complain about snipers, crying about one shot kills. As a healer I watch them taking no notice of the hits untill they die then wonder why.


Look around you and be aware of your surroundings.

They do count as a siege total. I have tested this. There a places that you can shoot from where they don't count and as far as I know is being worked on. And that's what I love about cold fire and cold stone no animations and no sound. It's annoying when you get hit by them but I purge straight away and you can Stealth a keep and take down walls and watch them try and find you its a good laugh. I personally don't have a problem at all using or being taken out by them. It adds to planning

I was soloing a resource in Cyrodiil and had killed all the guards on the flag while the pesky mage killed herself with my reflect. I was sitting in my inventory watching for the AP tick (because why should we get an indicator on screen that we gained XP or AP) only to be one shot by a cold fire ballista that I had absolutely no knowledge of being shot. I can survive the initial blast and if it had been a normal siege I would've heard the blast, saw the circle and felt the impact. That would've given me time to GDB and heal up. But no, I get no indication that anything has been shot until my character is all of a sudden wincing in pain and by the time I realize what's going on I'm looking at my death recap to see that xX420Smokew33d420Xx (no, this isn't someone's GT that I know of) has hit me with an invisible ballista because he can't kill anyone on his own. I thought PvP on PC was bad. I was wrong. Console is literally nothing but exploiters. Every single person is farming dolmens just to get invisible siege. There are two people that do nothing but set up cold fires on a resource flag and fire them at the same time to wipe 20+ people instantly. There is nothing you can do other than to be preemptive and set up a siege shield on a flag while waiting for the tick. That shouldn't be the case. Please, ZOS, fix your game. I'm hoping that the reason we haven't had hot fixes is because you're saving up a massive slew of fixes for this next update.

Be aware of your surroundings. That's all I can say. A bit of recon goes along way. As I said before I personally have no problem as I've gotten used to it but I do understand your frustrations. Everyone I know just accepts it as part of the gameplay now.

not really ...most people i know expect it will be fixed at some point ..in the mean time we deal with it

AJ_1988

Yeah we expect it to be fixed but we embrace it and accept it as is.

Embrace it? No. Unless you're the kid doing it.

I have to say I Love cold harbour siege weapons the way they are now is amazing and the only thing helping DC hold back Horde of EP .Yesterday for 3 hours we held Glademist against 50-60 EP with a group of 30 and half had cold fires just wiping 5 at a time.I filled All of my bounty quest just holding one keep.It was amazing I love cold fires.Don't fix them their perfect as is.

Another thing If your sieging a wall don't use Fire pots for goodness sake please use stones it takes the wall down faster.Also yesterday me and my guild mates even said tomorrow on the forums someone will be asking for them to be nerf since we just wiped multiple groups waves of EP.

I don't like the cold-harbour siege weapons for the simple fact when I shoot them I don't even know if it's being shot. It just gives me a reload time (arrow being red) then when it's ready to shoot again (shows press RT to shoot) I click it yet I don't know if it went off or not.

It wouldn't be considered a nerf. It would be considered a fix seeing as they aren't working as intended.

Pman85

You cannot see these projectiles on console. Mixed with camp hunter being exploited by everyone, PvP is in rough shape

Tonnopesce

I'we dropped a few coldharbur weapons a while ago and and the trabuc where not working at all but i belived it was a lag issue i need to test it in a underpopulated campaig ,it can be a bug.

While the radiant works on a certai area, i know because a lot of people use it to detect me when i gank hotspots

TequilaFire

Yes coldharbour problem is a PS4 bug don't know about Xbox.
You can't roll out of red you can't see.
Sure is cool just watching 6 people drop instantly though. /not

I'll be happy with them showing your fired it but I like that the red circle doesn't show up it help keep you and your enemy on your toes.

Yes, because it's cheap. That's like saying you want an instant kill ability that your enemies can't see and protect themselves from. Sounds fair, right? I'm guessing you get killed a lot when you aren't in a group of 20+.

leepalmer95

I wiped out a group of 30~ ad when they were capturing a farm with a cold harbour treb, with that many there must of been some server lag cause know one tried to cleanse or anything. Though i think a CH treb is literally hit + 1 tick = death and you don't see either the hit or the first tick on consoles.

dlepi24

^ and that is console PvP ladies and gentlemen. No other words needed.

SkinnyDG

Well this explains a few odd deaths I've had.

TequilaFire

No noise no animation no circle.
Exploit rinse and repeat.
If you are over a hill you can't even see a treb and you drop just like the /playdead emote.
Hits for over 29K damage with a tick so fast no chance to purge.
