THIS IS A SERIOUS ISSUE AND HYPOCRITICAL (magic templars)

genjutsu_kami

this is hypocritical because I've watched podcast and live streams from developers saying !! "if you are being attacked by a group of people you should die quickly anyways"


how does this apply to this video..... shouldn't he die????? but he is spamming breath of life, OMG

not only do they have a beam that scales from 50% health and can be spammed ! they also have a 0 to 100 health gain ability that can also be spammed,


@wrobel this is a contradiction to the live streams that we have watched were developers clearly say, people should die when groups are attacking them......

your mechanics do not show any of this.

so when we bring up a valid point that Radiant Destruction is over performing and you tell us that is performing as intended..... and then this happens on the video after your comments of groups vs individuals ...... it screams contradiction.

Another radiant dest. Thread.. how cute.

You have 2 threads going on about the same damn thing in the same damn section on the same damn page....

Seeing how I run a blazing shield tank I'm never behind a zerg...

Also I have 64 points into my health, my radiant glory might tick for 10k when a player has 10-20% health if I'm lucky.

If I did spam RD, even though I use RG, at full health I may tick for 1k each... troll is obvious troll. Lololololololilolololololol

Curious though, how you came to this conclusion... my Magicka templar has been on the back burner.

I watched the video. If someone had been running a Defile/Befoul build that is meant to lower a player's healing received, then there were times where this person would have dropped very quickly.

It's not a sexy build to use in PVP because it's more about weakening other player's health-restoring capabilities than it is about sustaining and defending yourself, but a Defiling build works wonders on Templar tanks (provided they aren't spamming Cleansing Ritual every second).

It's just really unfortunate that Defiling builds are almost strictly PVP builds. Things would get really interesting if they could be more viable in PVE. I'd love to see more ways to play than doing straight up damage all the time.

Consider that maybe it's also a gear combination involving possibly Black Rose or some other Heavy Armor set.

Light Armor gives 1/4th of the resistance of heavy armor.
Medium Armor gives 3/4ths of the resistance of medium armor.
...and we wonder why magicka types are wearing heavy armor?

Those builds are tanky. They sacrificed a lot of DPS. They couldn't hurt a fly.

Against decent players I agree. So many people just spam buttons and wonder what's happening. For my blazing shield build I thoroughly enjoy the stam players spamming wrecking blow and wonder how they died or the overload sorcs.

But the Templar attacked the group.

@EsoRecon care to share your xbox live gamertag, I'd like to know the troll when spotted in game.
