Streaking and frag, jabs and healing requires skill why Wrecking Blow is easy...

Enquiring minds would like to know.

    ? How do they require skill?, none of them do imo.

    Streaking is directional and a key tap, frags are aimbots, jabs is conal and in roughly the same area as hostiles, same with WB, proximity based.

    Healing does take skill though, so with ya on that one hehe.

    It appears you don't live by the philosophy of those you quote. All good, appearances are important.

    Because it's such an annoyingly powerful ability.

    If you notice on Stamina builds, sometimes it's literally the only damage ability on both their bars and the rest are utility.

    Many stam builds use it as the others skills aren't good.

    Its like the ubiquitous frag and overload on Sorcs, jabs on temps.

    I find it fascinating that do many close claim nbs are OP, when all I see in IC are temps and Sorcs.
    Personally I think it's disingenuous as many Sorcs and temps want ZoS to target another class and they remain as they are.

    Confused Frags streaks jabs and all that is just as easily spammable as wrecking blow.

    Yeah but they appear to be 'acceptable' to those requesting a nerf to WB.

    naaahhh it's fine. a nb told me so.

    in leather while blocking, also vigor healing. thats pretty op.

    the main issue with WB is how stupidly cheap it is, how it can bug lock you twice and can even reach further than it shows. not to mention it buffs its own damage. no other weapon skill has that much impact in a single click.

    Or so you believe if all you care about is damage bonuses and crowd control but there are other skills that give themselves damage bonuses too and don't require a second to execute.

    Stan nb use as Wb as they need to kill quick. The other options aren't great.

    Most Stam NB's use Surprise Attack rather then Wreaking Blow. It's instant, debuffs, and stuns from cloak. With passives adds health and tri-stat regen, along with activating Shadow Barrier (Major Ward and Major Resolve) when used.

    Can't quite say "most NBs" but it is a valid strat as you say, just going to show how much people blow WB out of the water. Sure it may be cheap and/or broken to exploiting but it does have counters. For starters, try CCing them before they CC you.
