I thought that was a PVP temper.

Pretty sure those got added back with the Imperial City's launch. You used to find them there, and now with One Tamriel's launch, they're freakin' everywhere.

"Forum Tears" collected from QQ forum members who are upset over the news about Proc sets


Coming Soon

A few months ago...

Guild Mate 1: Should I get this set [Helm of Insane OPness]?

Guild Mate 2: I wouldn't worry about getting that it will be nerfed next update

Guild Mate 1: When will that happen?

Guild Mate 2: Should be on PTS in January, live in Febuary...

Guild Mate 1: Thanks, I'm gonna go ahead and farm it since it will be useful till then.

Today on forums...

Don't get me wrong, I see why people are upset. There were just so many threads created about the same complaint.

I don't understand I thought people thought proc sets were too OP. Why complain about balancing them?

Because they never thought the training wheels would come off.

Also many people failing to actually read the post...

Sneak peak - Means there is more
Pve and pvp proc set nerf because they were over performing in both scenario's.

The actual dps loss of the proc set nerf won't be that big anyway? Even less if they increase cp cap.

More nerfs?

Jokes aside, I'm curious how making health more desirable will impact DPS overall. I can't see one gaining without the other stats losing (stam/mag).

Here's what I don't understand: they've already shown by the implementation of Battle Spirit that they can indeed code things to function a certain way in a PVP setting, and another way in a PVE setting.

Why they can't or won't apply this technique to sets, I haven't the faintest inkling of an idea.

It's not automatically a zero sum game. If you actually go for the increased health, then, yes, you'll lose DPS. But if your health now applies crit resist or something similar, it would make that a lot more appealing in Cyrodiil.

This really should not surprise you anymore.

The hate was for those 5pc proc sets like Viper.

ESPECIALLY Viper.

But the nerf is also hitting 2pc proc sets, like the Monster sets people use in PvE like dungeons and trials. Its trading one evil for another.

Because they want to nerf them for PVE.

When my base spell damage and base crit tank can swap Bloodspawn for Grothdarr and suddenly does 30k dps on mob pulls, that's an overperforming set. Makes pledges go faster, but it's still brain dead damage. If it did half the damage, it would be a fun flavor set with the lava pools and many players would likely still use it. Not the elite min-maxxed math grinding vet trials guilds, but they are a small minority

I mean, players use Maw of the Infernal because they like the daedroth.

There were a lot of complaints about the 2pc sets as well, particularly Tremorscale and Malubeth so they are coding it to effect everything because everyone complained about everything.
