    I just tried replicating the bugs with it, but can only replicate the double dipping on crits. But theres definitely something else weird going on since once in a while you get huge heals, 5k+ from a single tick, while its boosting your other heals to crazy values also...

    A good investigation whether it is bugged and gives more heal as intended is I think needed.

    But

    IF in 1vs 1, somebody is using a lot of DOT's, the principle of this set is that it will proc a lot ! and the DPS per hit was low....
    and IF in a 1 vs many, and IF those many deliver mediocre DPS per hit.....

    So

    Low DPS per enemy hit will be optimal for the Malubeth player.
    The INTENTION of this set is EXACTLY to be the counter against multiple low DPS hits !!!
    Nothing wrong with such a counter.

    Against a Malubeth build you should use only hits that hit hard per cast.
    never DOT's
    and NO LA weaving

    for example: hard cast your Frags etc

    Good joke. If you do as you adviced, only a select few burst builds will be able to actually kill a malubeth wearer.
    All other builds can pretty much be outhealed by vigor alone :open_mouth:
    "Hardcast fragments" Spoken like a true zerger. It's not often possible to hardcast a fragment i a real 1 vs 1 fight. Let alone if you're fighting more than one at a time....

    The OP example is against many, many enemies.
    I reacted primarily on that.
    So being myself a zerger or not, in that situation hardcast Frag should have been done.

    The thing is, it procs alot even in a 1 vs 1 fight. If thats intended, it shouldn't heal you to full everytime it does.
    Either lower proc chance or lower heal value (by alot)
    Even without the heal, it's pretty powerful for the +30% on all your heals. It was actually banned in last patch in the EU tournament (for dk's and templars), due to being too powerful.

    Working as intended, either do NOT meele people, or learn to purge the beam

    ^This. The beam is broken when people roll dodge away or move away. It is simply a L2P issue.

    Thanks for heads up yes!

    ZOS should nerf that too i have a build that relies on dodge rolls and these RD ruining my entire build and play style i am full impenetrable with %15 resistant still RD hits me 14k its hits too much it has too much range and its spammable !!! As all stam dps builds they all relies on dodge roll for defense that ability ruins it everyone spamming on me while fighting others and LOS is not option everywhere this ability ruins entire stam play. NERF !!!

    That's great but we need a tone down on them heals; no random should be able to sustain an onslaught of attacks from me which sets them entirely on the defensive. Also any ETA for it to be patched for XB1; I hope it's not going to be like July or something like that.

    After a few days away from Cyrodiil proper, I came back for awhile yesterday. I was literally laughing out loud at the sheer number of saps wearing Malubeths. Purple beams left and right. That moment when enemies proc purple beams on each other... Absolutely comical.

    The FOTM craze in this game is real.

    Sounds like the same issue that happens with Bahra's Curse.. normally it's a fairly low heal value, but ever so often it will heal tick for 4-6k.

    ^ That's a good example of inflated ego. People with your attitude are always first to complain. Just because you fight "some random guy" it does not mean he won't own your sorry ass. Learn some respect to others kid.

    I admit that if there is a bug it has to be fixed no excuses. Simple fix idea - swap the flat 30% increase in healing for a Major Mending buff during proc. Instantly 2 of the most tanky classes will find useless (templar and dk) as they already have this buff in their arsenal and won't be able to stack them. Or go even further and swap the buff to Minor one.

    I also can guarantee You the fix won't stop the "I can't burst someone down in 2 shots qq nerf please !" talk. Whiners will continue to spew salt when they loose against someone using malubeth. Not many people can admit they simply lost the battle.

    This is why we can't have nicd things. because scrubs will take to streets in forks and toeches demanding anything that kills them be OP, and removed. When they are UP, talentless, and sucking on purpose rather than discussing the armour/skills at hand to find effective countermeasures. ya'know, getgüd.

    Heal of this set is to big, it shouldnt heal even from 50% to full not to mention 10% to full, I also think it shouldnt procc on dots (dot builds are already weak as you can easly cleanse or ignore dot damage - burst all the way). Well eventualy... If nothing going to happend I think its a good time to test Fasallas Guile set.

    — They always claim they’re “investigating” the causes, but in reality they’re just waiting until the PC EU players go to bed. Once that happens, you can suddenly log in again and they happily mark the issue as Fixed.

    I'm not sure how it's an exploit, it seems to vary from mediocre to fairly powerful depending on the situation. Maybe you should try zerging if 1 build in particular is too muh burden to handle.

    The fact that half of players are now running malubeth in pvp, and the fact that it proccs way too often and heals for way too much has made me not play eso-pvp the last couple of weeks. Shame. After playing in lagg and other bugs/exploits for the longest time, its time to take a hiatus from the game imo.

    it's a decent set that might make you have to work for a kill. so naturally we have to nerf it.

    The 'decent' set is bugged and makes all of your heals bypass battle spirit while it's proc'd. Are you really trying to play off a bugged set as the usual people whining for nerfs? Really?

    Are you sure your heals bypass battle spirit ? The set says healing increased by 30%. Maybe that's what you are seeing.
