Shatter Soul - Ultimate

SneaK

Does anyone use this?

Didn't think so. Okay, soooo lets think of a way to make this useful. Especially with the changes to Dawnbreaker, people are now looking for another magic damage ultimate (preferably an AOE, right?).

What about making it to where your soul shatters, exploding for magical damage... Yep.

That last part is already a passive isnt it? Soul shatter on low health.

I've toyed with the ultimate, looks pretty big numbers to me, just not got round to burning a couple of skill points to play with it

The numbers are good, the problem is it takes 3 seconds to cast an unless you're one on one, your going to take a lot of damage casting this. I ran with sould assault and loved it on bosses from a safe distance with no trash mob support, but I just found a better alternative in meteor.

If this was instacast, then sign me up. Though I get the 2 percent passive regen and stam from mages guild, so they'd still need to sweeten that deal.

Makin' a looooot of assumptions there. Also did you forget about Meteor? No? Well shame on you then.

Are you specifically looking at the Shatter Soul morph? Or the Soul Strike ultimate as a whole? Some folk use an ability and its morphs interchangeably, so probably best to be clear before discussing.

Also, has anyone built around the Oblivion's Foe set and using this and Soul Trap? What were your experiences (including morphs of abilities)?

Only soul trap is affected by Oblivion's Foe, and even with the set boost it still garbage.

Eiagra

The passives don't get the bonus either? That sounds odd... and maybe not working as intended?

Oblivion's Foe is one of the most worthless 5-piece sets in the entire game. It ONLY buffs Soul Trap and its morphs. Soul Strike remains unaffected. I was quick to clarify this the exact second the Imperial City DLC set changes were written in the patch notes.

Would've been cool if it upped Soul Strike damage or even altered the ability in some cool way, but no

Soul Strike is perfectly fine.

Soul Assault (+1sec morph) is great.

Shatter Soul (enemy explodes if they die) needs to have its explosion damage buffed by 50-100%. Either this, or it needs to do something different altogether. It is the lesser morph right now between the two.

I am specifically talking about Shatter Soul, hence the title of the thread. I don't think I've ever met anyone who has had this skill/morph slotted on their bar. It needs to be changed.
