The Tank-Spank-Gank Build

Blobsky

Pretty much the maximum damage output possible vs high resistance high health targets... Plz don't gank me though

I will give you that I do personally find your builds and theorycrafting more intriguing than the usuals like Sypher, Deltia, Sribes, etc. That may be because you don't post them at the volume the others do.

But I also want to leave you with having you know that you look like you would be the little brother of one of the cast members of Geordie Shore lol.

The real question is, is the Geordie Shore guy handsome?

Balance?

What is this term? Never heard of it.

Thank you! I have been waiting for someone to publicly disprove the myth that the 2H ult is useless. It can be awesome.

Could this be the heavy armour balance people have been waiting for?

It'd probably be a negligible difference but would a Maelstrom nirnhoned greatsword be a better option since it gives a better damage bonus than the Clever Alchemist 4 piece?

Sorry if it was mentioned in the video. I watched it last night just before bed and was tired af and at work now so I can't watch again til later.

and i thought my spriggan, clever alch, kena, and velidreth build was good, but this build completely fixes all that ones problems with higher damage output

Yes, thats optimised setup - I just don't have nirnhoned, the video mentions it

I've run this build in IC (great theorycrafted build btw blobs) and it's not that simple to pull off a good gank, but has a lot of potential.

Mage light empower can be heard, so competent players will block and you can't one shot them if blocking.

Shields reduce the potential damage to manageable through removing crit, so watch out for dks who habitually apply igneous and a small shield to team mates.

It would be nice to front bar cloak with my ping (Aussie 280-300 ping always) to be able to reliably restealth. Had trouble with the getaway at times, but mostly a l2p issue.

When it works though, pow they don't know what hit em.

Welcome back

Just when i thought my new build was unique

I honestly don't know why you geared the way you did @Blobsky . You can wear 4 alch body, 2h alch back bar, 3 Sword Singer Jewelry and 1 2H and Armor piece Sword Singer with whatever monster set pieces you want. If you can't obtain a Sword Singer Nirnhound weapon then it makes sense but im not to sure if you can or not.

Edit: Nvm i see you wanted the Rally heal with Sword Singer but in my opinion its not really necessary and makes the build a little clunky not going 2h/2h.

No - the reason to not run a sword singer 2h is you can't get the Nirn weapon trait (sharp is 100% useless) - for your setup you are sacrificing 300 weapon damage

Yeah i kind of assumed that you cannot get that specific trait in Overland/Dungeon traits. Shame really. Nice build. It may make ZOS reconsider any changes to the ultimate now. :P

I've tested out this build I do love it. It rocks on AZ where most players stack proc sets and don't have cp to augment critical resist. Critical resist is the only thing that slows this build down as testing it out, we found someone with 1000 critical resist gets hit for 22000 (I didn't have the nirnhoned 2h, so as mentioned I gave up 11% wpn dmg) but if they have 2800 like alot of pvpers than the hit drops to 13000 and won't one shot them. I was also running the serpent at the time of testing, so if that were changed out then I would have seen significant improvements to my DPS.

If you are hitting 13k, you are doing something seriously wrong with buffs - I hit somebody with 3k crit resist and 100 points in hardy for ~23k.


The loss of Shadow mundus is a HUGE damage loss, but not everything here...

You should check the following: - are you in STEALTH as well as cloak?
- are you a woodelf?
- is your gear gold?
- are you getting yout ulti in time with the empower?

Atleast one of those is going wrong, to hit 13k I wiould imagine a fair few

Tried out the build and it's really funny. My hits ranged from 23k-33k. Even when ult is not up you can dish out some serious numbers to LA/MA players, fully charged HA into Excecutioner neted me 30k+ bursts many times, just need the right target.

I was hitting mobs for 118k so I figured it was right. I was using stealth and cloak. I am a woodelf and my weapons are gold but I haven't got all gold armor yet. The shadow mundus and the lack of nirnhoned on my 2 hander are the biggest offsets I know of.

I popped all buffs, hit magelight to proc empower, while in state and then cloak just before hitting the target. My test target had 2800 critical resist and 26000 physical resist but onslaught would negate the physical resist. Still only did 13000.

Ill be testing again once my crafter finishes researching nirnhoned on 2h lol

Something a bit wrong there, lowest I hit was on 3k crit resist and 100 points in hardy (Phys resist makes no difference) was 23k as stated before try change those 2 things and hopefully you are banging

Well, this has officially hit NA. I saw a guy running around duels in this spec trying to "test his damage" on people tonight.
