What's the new FOTM?

Actually_Goku

Haven't played for a few months, wondering what the new FOTM PVP spec is since update 13 launched? I've read the patch notes, and I'll take a stab in the dark and say Magicka DK.

They'll say mSorc and mDK. But mostly mSorc.

The newest outrage is Haunting Curse and Pulse

Don't forget the pet Sorcs in duels

Correct. Magsorc is dominating in both PvE and PvP, but magDKs are the most powerful class right now in PvP (not as well known though). Their damage is ridiculous, and with their new BoL they're unkillable since the OP heal from embers didn't get its much needed nerf.

For PVP

Quiet FOTM: mag sorc
Undiscovered FOTM: stamplar
Popular FOTM but still not all that: magDK

The first week post-Homestead, you couldn't swing a dead khajiit without hitting a re-roll mag DK. Most have disappeared, since MagDK still, as a class, has serious weaknesses in open world PvP.

Now there are mag sorcs freaking' everywhere because they got tons of indirect buffs, hit like a truck and still have strong shields.

Stamplars? Performing really nice now. Not a popular spec tho.

Would be nice if there were no fotm's.

I agree with this. Tired of getting told by others I don't have the right build or gear every time there's a new balance patch. I'm not the guy who switches my entire load out for an extra .3% damage, just so I can switch it all back the next patch.

Hoesntly in pvp this update all of the classes can be fotm .. they are all pretty good now

Stamplars are pretty annoying imo http://xboxdvr.com/gamer/Maxwell/screenshot/5883645
but I think the real issue that I hate which still hasn't been addressed is soft CC spam.

Please provide build with armor sets, I want some insight on good mDKs.

New OP heal lmao no mdk is not meta

Magicka sorc by far. For open world PvP solo and small groups and as negate and root monkeys for medium/large groups.

Embers isn't a new heal.

As many others said,Msorcs are everywhere. But Mdk are close,all with that annoying permablocking build,soooo boring sometimes

psychotic13

There isn't a FOTM there isn't a Meta build, it comes down to skill it's literally that *** simple

You see a lot of magsorcs not because their OP but because they're forgiving, easier to play, all classes are pretty much balanced don't listen to those who say they're not they just suck.

Play what you enjoy

Pet sorcs are way more boring. The targeting system favors pets because they will almost always take the hits that were intended for the sorc because of hit box issues with latency and lag

PVP is more balanced now than ever. They "nerfed" my Magplar and it didn't matter at all. Just play the class you're most comfortable with.

Actually_Goku

Been doing a bit of lurking and reading the last few hours, it'd seem the general consensus is that PVP is as close to balance as it's ever been.

Shout out to @Wrobel

It would seem after all the BS the devs have copped, that they've finally reached balance! Good job

Yeah, mDKs probably have potentially highest overall damage right now, but their damage isn't really exceptional in PvP. Their main damage source, DoT, gets reduced twice by CP (Elemental Defender and Thick Skinned) and they can get purged. The only strong burst attacks that mDKs have are ultmiates, and they have no execute. So I absolutely have to disagree with saying that they have ridiculous damage. Their main strength is in denying mobility, not in melting other players.

I would agree, PvP is probably the most balanced its been in a while between Stan and magic. Eye of the storm is still probably the most used ult especially in big groups, but other than that I've noticed more diversity in what people are using recently.

Magic dks and stamplars are a lot better in PvP now but I think because neither are entirely noob proof to play there's not really a specific meta right now. Unless you count spamming roots and snares as meta but that will probaby always be around.

Yes for the first time the "classes relative power" feeling is right.
