    Good job Bolt escape was nerfed so they cant just spam it and warp across the map like.... wait.

    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!

    Yeah, you can still do that. Less effective as an offensive ability tho, so i guess there's that.

    If we're being critical here, we would take into account that they timed their first few blinks very well and escaped the 4 seconds recast penalty.

    NOW, take into account that Tamerlin has almost 50k max magicka thanks to buffs, and regens 4% in battle. That puts their regen at around 2k. Considering they don't really have the Sorc combo *pop* that the class is known for, and they're using a staff, I'd say that spell damage was sacrificed for max magicka, and damage relied more on a critical hit.

    Now consider Tamerlin has 50k max magicka, 2k regen AND uses a pot while fighting, but STILL ends up at 25% of their magicka after "bolting across the map."

    It's fine.

    Doesn't really matter. i spam the *** outta streak with my 35K magicka, 1200 Magicka regen. only time i really feel the cost increase is when i'm trying to fight outnumbered. when i'm trying to escape, it's no big deal, i'm gone.

    I understand that. Have you counted how many streaks you can spam in battle and out of battle? It might be a personal problem with my sorc, but I can only blink about 5 times from full magicka before I'm completely spent. A pot only gives me one more streak. That being said, if I wait 4 seconds every three streaks, I can get about 14 spams. Keep in mind that my max magicka is 42k with 1750ish recovery.

    Well if you watch the video closely I only ever streak 3 times in a row and it almost completely drains my magicka, the rest is dodge rolling and line of sight. I'm at ~1600 magicka regen unbuffed and ~1800 with continuous attack. And yes the song is Amen by Sepultura, one of my favorites bands \m/

    Funny enough the lesson to be learned here would be - if all people had chased the sorc would have been dead.

    Don´t chase the sorc is a thing of the past. Do chase the sorc with your friends! He was oom and if the DK wouldn´t have been alone the sorc would have died.

    ATTENTION THIS I NOW A NERF SORC THREAD!

    Nah I find it I streak-dodge roll run for 3 seconds- streak dodge roll etc you can avoid all cool downs and it's pretty simple,

    On another note the other day everytome I streamed a guy Crit charged me everytime he kept doing it, not a very good escape now is it? I mainly use mine to streak through people rather than away from them

    I can streak 9 times in a row before i'm out of Magicka, though there are ways to avoid the cost increase. such as Boundless storm and dodge roll with Streak/BoL. and you still have pretty much the same effect. you're gone.

    Well 1 additional hit when he leaped you would have killed you.

    Not sure what server has to do with that. But yeah :P US seems to be more fun in terms of solo play.

    1 equal skilled opponent in 1 vs 3 situation and you are simply dead (if u dont split them, use terrain or simply use known tactic - tactical retreat aka blink my ass) at least EU.. and if one of those 2 is a templar u have even more probability of being rekt.. 1 Healbot is uber hard to counter, especially if he is build to tanking and healing only and spams CC resist potions, DC faction here is specialised in those kind of builds..

    Shame but EU solo roaming is almost dead.. Well, not for NBs imo..
