Gap closer root is increasingly becoming the last straw for me. Can't see a reason to continue.

That would be cool if gap closers used the (fire rune, spear shards) mechanism of placing where you want to drop.

It would create actual skill based combat.

Also, in my opinion there are too many gap closer abilities.

there are actually just 3 gapclosers that are viable, ambush, 2H gapclosers with their morps and the sword and shield gapcloser.
you can also call chains from a dk a gapcloser but it's just weird that it isn't used that mutch and the gapcloser from the aedric spear is bugged like hell xd.
even if there was just one gapcloser melee-users would just run that one really. so this give people options to run something else then critcharge -> WB as stam user

Just want to leave a big +1. For every bit they improve in the game, they permanently make 2 bits worse in terms of broken mechanics or performance.

I really hope BnS and/or BDO do live up to the hype so we have alternatives, which we currently do not IMO. Then ZOS will feel the pain of losing their pvp community, and how they punch above their weight in being customer hubs (streamers, forum participants, etc), and perhaps do something about their unsuccessful combat mechanics team.

I don't know if the current team was the original architect of the combat mechanics, because they did a good job with the overall game setup. But boy have they been screwing up non-stop since release.

I hope the rumors get confirmed and this comes to PS4. Saw King Rich streaming actual structured PvP in there. Oh baby. Damn it's pretty too.

if you have problems with gap closers just take a look at the mages guild treeline.... there is a good counter to it in that treeline

I dont see what you are talking about. Equillibrium?? No things in the mages tree that I'm aware of solve gap closer root.

fire rune morph......
but then you have to think of your own build and not look up a cookie-cutter build which is to hard for most min/maxers i guess

PLEASE NOTE: I am not talking about the standard gap closing extra effects. I am talking about the 1 second unbreakable, immune immune root that was recently stealth hotfixed into the game for all gap closer abilities.
This is just another zerg tool designed to make it even harder to 1vX.

It's boring and it is not fun. It completely diminishes the need for and use of actual skill in PvP.

It's just another change that favours large groups,

A totally agree and im pretty much in the same boat as you.
