    Stam builds have besser synergy with healing than most magica builds - especially with hots (which the resto ult is) as those work wonderfully in conjunction with dodging or permablock.

    I know that with ultimates but he said they are using resto staff better then magica players and that makes no sense as they have more resources available to keep healing others . Wouldn't this be more of a solo player self healing thing because they don't want rally two handed no range build ?

    the ulty itself doesnt require magicka or spell damage with a stam build with high max set it scales better and can help stam builds 1vX better. with beast trap it also can give you MAJOR and MINOR FORCE. i think "effective would be a better ".

    Stam builds are using the resto ulties better then most magicka builds in bgs and in cyrodiil. Its UNFAIR, this is clearly an ability for magicka users. please make it scale off max magicka and spell damage, this isnt right you dont see magicka builds running with stam ult's (cept dawn breaker but that used to be magicka anyways).

    Its ok, you can wear Staminaweapons too and using there Ults. I dont see the Problem?

    this logic is the same as magicka using two swords. should we stop using dual swords for magicka?

    All 4 of my mains have every skill and weapon line maxed and morphed (twice) so i can respec them into anything i want at any time.

    If my stealthy dual wielding Stamblade Bosmer wants to use a fully leveled resto staff, she can do so anytime at her leisure.

    @Elong has a good point. Many mag builds are using two hander for two hander ult to give much needed instant, burst, high damage, single target ult...cause lets face it. Soul assault is great against anyone who doesnt know what they are doing. Meteor is great against anyone who doesnt know what they are doing. Id never be able to kill a player like elong, kodi, sypher....or the many other greats in this game...with meteor or soul assault. And since zeni keeps giving all of our burst ults away to stamina...can you say buh bye to crescent sweep, DBoS, the better version of dk gap closer ult...zeni doesnt want any mag class to be able to burst down a heavy armor, or medium armor toon, they want us to sustained damage them down. They want all stam specs to burst down light armor.

    So no...let them use resto ult.

    Why is it clearly for magic users when it scales off your highest pool? Who says resto users are for magicka only? ZOS has promoted hybrid and play how you want since the game came out. An ultimate isn't magic or stam. It's just an ultimate

    You all make good points however resto ulti is over performing. I agree, it's a good thing people are being diverse, but resto ulti really needs an increase in cost or something because 75 ulti for what it provides is insane.

    So lets turn this into a nerf resto ulti thread.

    I don't really have a problem with that, because its basically immortality for 5 seconds, so its not like its long. I mean... Just wait for it to finish and burst the dude down, no?

    Just goes to show how powerful restro ulti actually is in the BG setting.

    Resto ult, 1h+shield ult, warden healing ult all need adjustments bc of their power in smallscale settings.

    That's a different matter entirely. But OP claiming stam build use resto ulti better than mag builds is not true imo. Yeah it's overperforming, but stamina builds using it aren't using it to a greater effect than magicka builds.

    There should always have been a stamina and magicka moph of every ulti imo (and some argue of basic skills too). Leap is a great example. Zos don't even know what they're doing half the time.

    Well I mean, its more the fact that at first all the skills were magicka right... And that ZOS with the evolution of the game, didn't change things accordingly. Only speaking for ultimates btw, because a magicka Wrecking Blow morph isn't something I want to see lol

    Old news. I had guys doing this in One Tamriel.

    Also magicka players use 2h and snb ults all the time. I know a stamplar with a fondness for Remembrance. Rebalancing ults in disfavor of build diversity? No thanks.

    It looks ugly but mmorpgs since 2010 or so have abandoned concept for practicality. Eso took it one step further by advertising variety with all the skills lines, but instead promoted min/maxing like there's no tomorrow.

    You will be faced with working as intended comments so don't bother.

    2 years ago, in cyrodiil you'd see tanks not using heavy armor, roques using 1h/s and mages running around with dualswords.

    Why? Because it helps the numbers/stats.

    Forget about class concept and identity.
    Anything goes if it works. I hate to say that but I'd advice you to forget about the whole matter

    I don't think Unfair means what you think it means. The resto ult is available to everybody, regardless of class, race, or spec. All one has to do it choose to equip and level the weapon, and invest a few skill points. Totally fair.

    And some people will use it with better timing, and on better builds than others. And some people will simply be better players. That's all fair too. Not equal, but fair. Crying "not fair" when something isn't how you want is something children do.

    It'll be okay in non CP. Not so much in CP because, even though the damage scales with max stat, it still counts your spell pen, spell crit etc. not your phys pen and weapon crit.

    It's why DBOS in no CP is okayish for mag builds, not so much in CP.

    That's not true, I know a stam sorc that wiped zergs with it as emp and without emp.

    Thanks.

    tbh i'd say it's clearly overpowered but at the same times keeps this game (at least small-scale) alive, atm. especially in face of the increased focus on no-CP + incap + procsets I don't think I would still play BGs & small scale without it. I'd play PvE and run around in choo-choo trains like most players but I just wouldn't bother with 4 stamblades trying to "play" the game by collaboratively using ambush and incap into mashing their heads on the keyboard.

    sure, there is still stuff like the 1h+s ult (and warden trees), but imho the popularity of cheap defensive ults is largely due to how effective, yet necessary, they are to counteract procs and incap combos. if you take away the defensive ults, you entirely break the game.

    Well as Emp on my stam dk i could use the magicka morph of leap and it'd be strong lol... I wouldn't use it as a non emp ever. Point I was making, in CP PvP, ultis like storm do not work as well on a stam build because it still scales off spell pen/crit. Yeah your tooltip will still increase, but you're still gimping yourself. Storm isn't even all that good anymore unless you're in a bomb group. I don't see many solo bombers anymore, nor do I see many storms in 1v1/1vX situations because it got nerfed.

    More like 10s because that´s how long the major protection lasts.

    Add bloodspawn/tavas on top of that and you have more uptime on the buff than downtime.
