    1.5 can rot in hell.

    1.5 was absolutely the closest we ever came to overall balance -- including all of its blemishes.
    Every single patch has been worse.
    Excepting 1.0, I think 1.7 was probably the low point of the game -- but the only reason 1.6 wasn't worse was b/c players didn't have enough CPs.

    Says the DK.

    My NB was head and shoulders better than my DK in 1.5.

    Its so funny that people still try to act as if NBs were so weak pre 1.6. What the dont realize is that NBs were incredibly strong just like DKs were in large fights.


    mana blades perhaps, but not all NBs played a mana blade.

    DO NOT STEAL MY LINE

    Lol sorry, but it's true. They'll actually be strong now in non-cp campaigns after latest buffs.

    they got a health buff correct? a decent buff, but I personally think they should have gotten some kind of stealth passive.

    still though, if it is a health buff (correct me if I am wrong, i know they will get some kind of stat boosting passive next month) they will be at least a semi-decent choice. the health buff racial could save me glyphs, level up points and the like.

    I was more so referring to this:

    Amphibious: Increased the amount of Health, Magicka, and Stamina restored from this passive to 4/8/12% at Ranks I/II/III from 2/5/8%.

    Which would help with sustain which is needed without CP. A potion build would actually be viable, and kinda fun if done right.

    I might actually duel again without CP.

    The current dueling meta is really unappealing to me. Resource is no problem, you all have high damage, it's just a bunch of dodge rolling and shielding until someone tries an alpha strike BOOM combo. Very little build variety.

    I loved the old way much better. Burst was dangerous but could be countered with sustained pressure. Sustained pressure came at the cost of burst. Dots mattered more because the resources it took to remove them mattered, blocking and dodging was extremely selective, retreating into a roll dodging, vigor spamming/shield stack was strategic to try to waste your opponents resources on a burst combo he couldn't finish, etc.

    Count me in on the "CP ruined duels" camp.

    NBs weren't weak but there were significant reasons why you'd want other classes in group. They really came into thier own with the Nirn meta TBH.

    I might try this server out.

    This is probably closest we're going to get to Soft Caps.

    I wouldn't know anything about that; my NB was single target magicka melee burst specced. So much better back then.
    Unsubbed and no longer playing, but still checking the Alliance War forum for the lulz.

    Wow, I had no idea what it was like without CPs. What a terrible experience D:

    Be hilarious to see all the capped players who used to camp their toons in non-vet get pissed because they're on a more level playing field.

    I got rekt so hard on pts since I'm literally out of ressources after 10 seconds :'(

    It's called recorce management, u need regen glyphs and sets!!! Bye bye infa sustain and high damage builds!!!!


    On the other hand shields nearly remain the same

    Shields will loose around 30% of their strenght, atleast if you are over 400 champion points, you loose alot of stats and shields are based on max magicka. Personally I went from 11500 hardened ward to 8400.

    Also because you lose Bastion's benefits, so shields take a double hit.

    Stupid of anyone to say shields remain the same.
