From todays pts notes: https://forums.elderscrollsonline.com/en/discussion/266069/

"Drain Magicka Poisons and Damage Magicka Poisons now increase the resource cost of Magicka abilities by 60%, up from 30%.

Drain Stamina Poisons and Damage Stamina Poisons now increase the resource cost of Stamina abilities by 60%, up from 30%."

This seems a little crazy to me.

Where is my reserve slice proxy det Gina promised?

Thoughts on how this will impact pvp?

    Oh boy. Going to be a ton of crafting going on and players leveling alchemy. Prices for potions & materials are going to sky rocket.

    Pushing hard for players to jump neck deep into this DLC I see. No other reason to boost something new like this. Especially when everyone knows how PvP will receive it.

    I wonder if they think by giving players the ability to effectively slash each others resource pools that itll make the fights go faster (which just not that long ago they were trying to make last longer?).

    I don't get what you are complaining about. You can use them yourself as well, it's not like your abilities now magically cost 60% more in pvp without you being able to do something to counter it.

    Lol
    WB is gonna cost you 3k stam if you ever get poisoned..
    Streak, Breath of Life, Purify, Shuffle... all those abilities that cost 3k magicka/stam will cost 5k+ instead if you get poisoned (which will be 90% of the time once everyone is geared)

    @Wrobel Balance . Poison =\= Antidotes

    Please PvP and Crafters at the same time .

    Anything else is > balance .

    Making players use abilities to remove poison is bad and will tilt the scales . Players already have ballista and oil to worry about . This will resource drain many classes already asking for a boost .

    I was wondering about that. There is no way to mitigate the effects of applied poisons?

    I think poisons are necessary to stop 30+ minuet duels, lets just not break the game now...
    How long do poisons last last?
    Does purge do anything to them?

    How about lowering the drop rate of the poison ingredients?Because I found a heck of alot of them on the pts and that's going to make them real common. Maybe they should be like Nirmcrux rare?

    I thought that the Snakeblood passive in the Alchemy skill line was going to reduce the damage/effect from poisons.. ???

    Okay, whose bright idea was it to introduce PvP options that affect resource pools?

    That's just a recipe for disaster.
