exploiter and off-balance nerf in next patch

Morvane

havent noticed any themes about this. does it means that mana-meta (75 thaumaturge for exploiter and only lightning staff on backbar) would die? what do you think?
I think fire backbar will now nearly same or overpower lightning back bar. Lightning main will save it position Very interested for manasorcs and nb, guys

Yes, it pretty much will. I believe mag will have a slightly higher place on the DPS scale now using fire, which is extra damage, and stam losing out super strong DW heavy attacks.

I think nearly so but how about lose 10% damage from exploiter? why nobody ignore it now?

Buff for PvP , nerf for PvE . Probably gonna get nerfed for PvP though because it is overpowered in PTS .

so, does lightning backbar would be useless now on PvE I mean for exploiter buff? I cant test on my own cuz I cant install addons on PTS

Its a big nerf in PVE. They already have a hard time in trials and all the raid teams rather take stam characters with a way more damage. With this update they will be dead for PVE.

Well I am the only sorc or get only another sorc in a trial in 3 different guilds.

Mag = bad. Mag DK = M.I.A. too. Of course ZOS "cure" is not to help mag, but to nerf everyone to the bottom like mag.

Mostly , yes . There are some classes that can benefit from lightning damage but mostly , fire will take over . It is not a good idea to speak about it at the moment since they can change it completely until it is out . I would wait until new patch hits live the server .

Also , Off Balance is bugged in PTS . Hope they will fix it on Monday .

my thought on that is the large majority of your skills are aoe.so unless that changes I don't see it being different.Still dislike the change.

Has anyone had a chance to test this since release or in PTS, wanting to know if fire staff and different champ point allocation will be more effective now. Fire staff wall of elements does more dmg and will also proc llambris morethan just relying on crushing shock to proc it
