I hate Crystal Shard with a passion...

It pisses me off completely. It's embarassing. If I'm in a group with templars, for them it's probably that Piercing Javelin, crash boom bang, my CS doesn't even cast yet. Mages' Fury is completely useless... I want to have Mages' Fury act like that Piercing Javelin..or at least a morph of it, just simple damage, not that execution crap.

    And it's also this delay of travelling to the target. The farther it is, the longer it takes to work...

    C Frags has the 50% chance of being a insta cast, using it once it procs while weaving Crushing Shock/Light/Heavy will activate it

    I've once had it proc about 8 times in a row from just using Crushing Shock > Frag > Crushing Shock > Frag etc

    I just don't get why they had to make both Mages Fury morphs to be execute spells instead of just keeping as regular damage spell. Few days ago I tried Lightning Splash on a group of foes that didn't detect me and nothing happened.

    But it's still random based, plus it consumes another slot for the Crushing Shock...

    Also that binds me to using a destro staff. Meaning no shield, one piece of equipment less, ruining equipment setup...

    I use swords on the front bar and destro on the back with Power Surge on one bar and Boundless Storm on the other, just a matter of quickly switching bars to keep both up, power surge first coz it lasts longer then shields cast next.

    Edit: Crystal Shards does a stack load of damage that is why it has a 1 sec cast time , currently I am getting 22k damage per hit using a high crit %.

    Mages Wrath/Endless Fury is by far one of the best executes in the game. Don't you dare to ask for it to be changed.

    Yea, well, Javelin is actually pretty weak. It is basically a PvP skill only and no respectable templar would use other than PvP and maybe early leveling up. It is only good for it's knockdown where frags is pretty solid.

    Also, wrath is an execute. It should never be used until target is at 20%.

    LOL. Crystal Fragments is one of the strongest skills in the game.

    You do not need a destruction staff to get an instant proc.
    Make Rush of Agony "Monsters only." People should not be consecutively crowd controlled in a PvP setting. Period.

    Crystal Frags is the best skill in the game. Love my 45k Frags in trials.

    You can proc it with any other spell, so you don't need to use a destro staff. Proc it with Encase, proc it with Lightning Flood, proc it with Hardened Ward, proc it with Power Surge, proc it with Boundless Storm, proc it with whatever spell you want... But don't hard cast it.

    I do enjoy watching people cast it, though. IDK why lol.

    If you really play how you imagine it from what you wrote I am really surprised you didnt quit already, because the way you play is absolutely wrong. Crushing shock/force pulse is kinda must have for a sorc. Without it you are bad sorc in terms of DPS. I really wonder what crap you have on your bar that you cant slot shield.

  • fxeconomisteb17_ESO
    The most embarassing moment is when you're in a group with templars that cast so fast, that I can't even cast my CS because targets die under cursor. Which makes me think: how the hell to counter something like that in PVP ?

    I hate Crystal Frags, too. In PvP for some reason I can never break out of the stun in time to recover. It hurts! :D

    Also, wrath is an execute. It should never be used until target is at 20%.

    The Templar Javelin is also useful in very specific situations in PvE as a ranged interrupt, as well. The damage is low, but sometimes the ranged interrupt is a lifesaver. For example, upstairs in Hel Ra Citadel, a Templar doesn't need a destruction staff to help out.
    Why be normal when you can be better?

Our eyes once were blinded, now through him do we see. Our hands once were idle, now through them does he speak. And when the world shall listen, and when the world shall see, and when the world remembers, that world will cease to be. - Miraak
