This is unplayable and not because my sorcerer was nerfed I couldnt tell you if it was balenced because the game isnt respoding as it should. Not having to cast a shield every 3 seconds, yes 3 seconds when you include the lag,, would be great but best of all it would be even better if I didnt have to hit each rotation 3-4 times to make sure it casts. Then to be killed in what seems instantly regardless of what I try to do. Even if abilities do appear to cast or work, the affects dont.

And what is the deal with full sorcerer class anyway. Damage sucks while at the same time we are left with casting shields all the time and now thats been nerfed I cant really see the point in any of it. I see other classes taking 0 damage while being attack by multiple targets or is that the pay to win class? Reflect!?!

I tell you what, Ive asked some people and alot of them agree with me on a idea and thats maybe they could offer a DLC that fixes the lag. That is sort of a joke but I really would pay for this game to work, I mean whats the point in a game thats broken anyway?

    Ball or lightning: teleport to my death at I still get hit by the targets after use and that includs projectiles. stuns and everything else.

    Dampen magic: last 4 second and fails to cast most the time.

    Ward ally: last 1 second if you include swoping weapons and fails to cast most of the time or has no effect

    Light Armor: ? I have no idea what this does for me, I got killed by a sorc in the time it took the animation to stand up after being hit off my ride.


    The combat in this game makes no sence. The only thing that seems to have had any real improvements other than the store page.

    P.S. none of the people I know who played skyrim and oblivion would even touch this game. So far its a total fail as far as internet games go.

    Ive played online games since the start and dial up was less laggy than this and thats no exaggeration. The lag in this game makes bf3/4 look good.... comon

    The lag is destroying the game. Even PvE is effected by it. I don't know what ZOS must be thinking but current performance is just not good enough. Either they don't care or they are incompetent.

    Point 1: The lag will never be fixed, never. Most of us came to accept it long ago, you'll feel better when you do too.

    Point 2: mag Sorcs used to be pretty OP, now they're comparatively weak for damage output. This is Zeni's concept of "balance". With the right build however, sorcs can still be very competitive. You'll have to change some things up, and lose your reliance on shields. You don't need them, I promise.

    Yeah but my point is the class could? be fine its just that the abilities are not working. It's every time now I die, be it in pvp or pve (yes i know right pve) it's because of lag or ofc my own fault.

    At times it just feels like I freeze for 3 seconds then I get stunned, attacked and die. Some strange lag that could be diverted.

    Or the mesage "you cant do while your dead" when I'm not dead yet lol. 60-100 frame rate.

    Some rotations seems to stun and kill faster than the animation can react/stand, leaving no gameplay. Not sure this is even lag but still makes no sence to me lol.

    I'm new to this game and games being this broken. Sorry if it seems strange to me, I did use to play 16 years ago on dial up with less problems than this, very strange. Always thought ESO was a reputable company and would deliver a outstanding mmo rpg.

    OP: Either get used to the fact that ESO is a broken product managed by incompetent developers or just quit playing. I suggest the latter.

    I have very little choice as I do only aim for pvp, not only does time not stop for broken games but we get older and well I guess It's been a lossing battle waiting for a good one to come out since the last did a u turn on me. Can you guess what one that was? The one that died recently probably for the same mistake this games just made.

    I have heard a number of times, if you reset your router, it solves all problems....

    We have had the lag free megaservers that was promised way back in ancient times, 2013, so clearly you are delusional OP.

    Reset your router, its not ZoS servers, its not ZoS`s fault, its your router sir

    Reset it I say, watch all the problems miraculously disappear.

    I tested NAT types 1, 2 and 3 and all of them show identical behaviour. All of them are totally sh#t when it comes down to ZOS server performance. It's not the router, it's the so called megaserver that causing the mega-delay. The developers at ZOS have most of their work still ahead of them.

    Lag is here to stay as nothing has really been done to fix it in the last year or so...

    My advice is to either learn to play with it or go to the sewers,
    I pretty much camp in the sewers these days as there is minimal lag down there.

    if you have dsl reseting your router is the last thing you want to do. If you want the DLM to sync your connection so low you have not the bandwidth to even play then go ahead. Worst advice I've ever read.

    In that case unplug the thing for 10-30 mins at around 11am once a week at the most, this can give you a boost and even lower your interleaving lvl, lowering ping if your lucky if you not already on fastpath or fttc.
