How About Now, Everyone? (Veteran Maelstrom Arena)

Ch4mpTW

It's funny how magicka-based build users were bad-talked by the stamina-based build users for months. It's also ironic that there are more stamina-based players, than maicka. But, how about now? As a sorcerer, I see nothing wrong with the veteran Maelstrom Arena. In fact, I love it. Lol. Remember them Imperial City days? Nightblade City? How people told PVE'ers to "git gud" and "L2P"? Seems to me like a lot of StamBlades, Stemplars, and stamina-based Dragonknights need to learn to play. Lol. And don't get me started on the PVP'ers calling us PVE'ers "care bears" and "whiny". Yet... I see a lot of those same names who belittled us PVE'ers and told us to "L2P" are in the threads whining about how unfair it is for their Nightblades. C'mon guys. Just use your Dark Cloak. Lmao. Animation cancel your arrows, and remember to wrecking blow the mobs.

I don't. Seems fine to me. People should just: Learn the mechanics a bit better, stay out of the red areas, keep resource management high on their priority list, and remember to keep the DPS high. Seems legit to me.

I sure do wish everyone had a class shield that scaled from magicka to defend you against Physical and Magic attacks. Not everyone gets to stack spell damage majority of other classes have a terrible shield, and healing ward instead of having it in one.
There is hardly any red in arena it's basic attacks hitting for 6k that kill most people or broken mechanics.

Do vmsa on a magicka dk and see how "easy" it is for magicka users that don't have big shields, great mobility and a spamable dps skill that heals them.

Btw. I don't remember magicka sorcs being weak in pvp this summer.

I think he was trying to say that of course you don't see a problem doing it as a sorcerer. Look at the leaderboards.

Not complaining about difficulty of MSA because I can do it just fine on my magicka templar, as can @Nifty2g, as evident by his score.

Oh we weren't exactly "weak". But, magicka sorcerers were only down talked and called trash by nature. And how we can only shield stack and bolt escape. It was all about being a Nightblade all the way until Orsinium it seems like. As for struggling with a magicka Dragonknight, I can't exactly say I had too much of a problem. I mean, it was definitely more challenging than my sorcerer. BUT! It was doable. But, I can understand somewhat where you and the other gentlemen are coming from.

HOWEVER! It's still refreshing to read all of the stamina-based build users complaining, and seeing us sorcerers on top. Feels good. Real good. Feels good man.

So much truth. I'm telling you, bruh. As a solo player, who PVE's primarily and is a magicka-based sorcerer mainly? I'm LOVING Orsinium. I haven't been this happy in ESO in a looooong time. Once Zenimax fixes the ancestor silk nodes, and crafting writs I'll be just basking in happiness. Sunglasses and all.
