✭✭✭✭Great stuff in here! Bringing the heat with those fixes!
@ZOS_Wrobel you guys forgot Arrow Spray which by those rules should be blockable but not dodgeable. Please make undodgeable!8 -
Bevik✭✭✭✭Holy crap.... the birds are dodgeable........... THIS PATCH JUST GOT AMAZING.
Unfortunately yes "Dive: The damage from this ability and its morphs can now be dodged."
Can't believe that. My MagWarden is *** in PvE Damage and now you steal his Bird-Attack in PvP. What should I do in PvP then? Be a healer or tank?
Should switch to a twohand-stamina then for PvP... seems to be better. Bye Bye my Warden.
Oh please no, now all the bird spamming wardens will unite to cry on the forum...8 -

✭✭The change to birds makes sense but I feel like people spammed it because it's the only class DPS a Warden has. My question is how will this change a Warden's burst in PvP? Will it not make much of a difference or will it impact the class so much that players will shelf their Wardens and play another class?
Warden's don't have much DPS as it is so this nerfs what they were good at in PvP... burst. Probably won't impact the good players doing Warden or myself since I changed my Warden to more of a tank (saw this coming). More minor buffs (emphasis on minor) to some Warden passives and abilities would make up for this change to birds and also make them slightly more viable in DPS situations. (since I sense some nerfs to other abilities coming as well)
Plus I thought I read somewhere that birds were already reflectable? Did I imagine that lol? I think I did.Edited by OtarTheMad on January 29, 2018 6:00PM3 -
Speed_Kills✭✭✭See some nice needed changes in here. Now if you can fix defensive rune being consumed by shadowrend or shadow image even though they can't be cced, I will be one happy dw stamsorc.Edited by Speed_Kills on January 29, 2018 5:55PMSome say speed kills, I hope to be proof of that.

SodanTok✭✭✭✭✭
✭✭Another excellent patch, thank you.
A question: did you miss Bombard/Acid Spray, or do those remain dodgeable by purpose?
Similar cone AoE abilities: Sweeps, Cleave, Shalks, WoE etc are all undodgeable now.
Wait, how did stamina AoE ability where you literally shoot daggers got undodgeable treatment, and different stamina AoE ability where you literally shoot arrows is still dodgeable...
This does not sound to me like it adhering to any stable mechanics

Let me clarify for you; mag DKs were overperforming in PvP. Now they can't do ridiculous damage/pressure while healing to full constantly. A great and welcomed change. Searing strike should not be an undodgable ability. The change is a fantastic addition to their nerf fest.6 -

Medium armor dodge roll nightblades just went up a notch in pvp. Dodge is the dumbest thing in the game and they just made it even stronger.12 -
mandricus✭✭✭✭✭The real question are:
why Dive has been undodgeable until now?
And why it is still unblockable?0 -

So does that mean the off-balance cooldown starts at the first proc of off-balance or when off-balance runs out?Edited by MotokoKusanagi34 on January 29, 2018 6:14PM1 -

✭✭Soul Harvest still needs additional effects to be viable in PvP. Powerlash needs to not be consumed if dodged (I would like to say the same for grim focus but one fight at a time). Otherwise pretty good notesFlawless Conqueror ~ Grand OverlordShe/Her ~ PC/NA | I record things for fun and for info1 -
jediprime74✭✭✭@ZOS_GinaBruno @ZOS_Wrobel
Are orbs and shards still sharing a cooldown or have they been reverted back to separate cooldowns?
