    So they added another profits to that skill because it already had profits....lol :neutral:
    Riiight... so while we are at it why not make solar flare, snipe, dizzying swing, vampires bane and all the other slow abilities also undodgeable?

    Lets make surprise attack go through shields and dizzying stop magicka healing skills.

    That's actually not a bad idea, except i am not sure surprise attack is the right candidate, considering how powerful cloak is. The balance of the whole class needs to be considered when assigning such powerful perks. personally, i'd give the shield-bypass to flame lash, but it's open to debate. In general, making single defenses less foolproof by introducing counters would bring a more balanced game overall.

    I think 2h already has more than enough utility as does surprise attack. I do not think the 2h line needs anymore love than it already has.

    Guys i was being sarcastic because that would be broken...

    People complain about how strong shield breaker or oblivion dmg is, you think me hitting you for 7k crits through shields is a good idea.

    I said it because its comparable to dive going through dodge now. Both would ignore a main defence.

    Completely redo trapping webs
    I agree here Trapping Webs has need a look always, it wasn't great before they changed it and it was garbage after the change. The AOE is so tiny it negates the value of the snare or damage.

    Medium armor is the weakest armor class currently and having this move be undodgeable is a gross disregard towards balance.

    the amount of the most op sets leading to stamina, aka medium armor, below:

    1) Viper
    2) Tremor
    3) Red M
    4) Widow
    5-10) Insert any set providing 300regen and 300 wd

    Please.

    Clearly L2P issue.

    I'm assuming the "P" in "L2P" stands for Proc in this instance.

    Haha that amount of rage would be like none other. Then we could tell them to "just block it" like they've been telling us.

    Warden effing sucks for pvp overall. Never been killed by one yet.

    BUT

    They're like the new templars just sitting behind a zerg spamming it and it's pretty annoying. Only thing to do is dodge roll and often times you can't because it seems like the dive animation bugs out my characters movement.

    Why "shouldn't" he win if he's outnumbered against scrubs? Having an undodgeable spam is kind of an I win button for those who have numbers on their side. No matter how much player skill they lack.

    Having a organised zerg group drop 5x at the same time is.

    Theres always some zergling wipe tactic, used to be bats/ steel tornado, before that it was bats/impulse...
