Imbue weapons may need a nerf.

It's nearly broken m. It adds like 8k dmg to your light attacks..Maybe no pve..but pvp where burst matters, this is a bit insane

✭It's meant to be a spammable ability, like strife, or force pulse, but dependent on your light attack. The 2s duration is there to try and prevent it from being delayed burst.10 -

It can be abused with sets that buff light attack dmg. Combined with the buff already coming to LA's in the patch notes. Combined with this new skill. You can get some pretty hefty dmg. Maybe 10k+ light attacks in pvp you wouldn't need to use any other skills0 -

Good day. I mean the game mechanics are pretty simple. Light attacks are buffed by spell dmg and magicka. Your light attacks get buffed by the sets that increase light attack dmg. Then the skill buffs your light attack dmg.0 -

No because I can kill someone with 2 light attacks and a curse. Maybe a frag too without even trying.0 -
Jeezye✭✭✭✭✭I have always seen this skill as a spammable like everyone here. Now that I’m thinking about it though, this skill might ideed cause strong burst situations in PvP because of its delay. Think of a sorc that does curse, casts imbue and then animation cancels his next auto attack with a frag. The light attack and frag will land at the same time, but being buffed with imbue. If you see it that way, imbue and frag (which we consider two spammables) will land at the same time.
Basically good players can weave the imbue buffed light attack in any spammable, e.g. surprise attack, which might cause unmanageable burst.
Can someone try this? On my way to vacations atm
Edited by Jeezye on May 1, 2018 3:34PM1 -
Micah_Bayer✭✭✭✭✭Listen if you guys have tested this in pts. Throw away force pulse because this is a much better option. Enemies can hardly see it. Hits harder than force pulse and it can be timed into a burst that can Insta kill people. If you spec into a light attack buipd. You Will be a god.0

Imbue Weapons
Casting this skill applies a buff that adds extra Physical Damage to your next two Light Attacks for 2s. One morph turns this into a Magicka skill and applies a random status effect (Burning, Concussed or Chilled). The other morph heals the caster for 15% of the damage done.

It is a separate damage component though, that’s independent from your light attack damage... so things that buff your light attack have no effect on imbue weapons... that is what everyone here is trying to tell you....

If you have tested it on the pts. That is not the case. If it's a bug then that's on zos. It definitely gets buffed. Otherwise it'd have the same dmg with different setups.Edited by Micah_Bayer on May 1, 2018 3:53PM0 -

I have... when my light attack gets buffed (by empower for instance) the imbue weapon damage stays the same... as it should be...
However, it does change with different setups, but that’s only logical, more spell damage will increase the damage, as it does for every other skill (like other spammables like force pulse) and that’s perfectly fine.. but things that specifically buff light attacks (elegant set, empower, etc) have no effect on imbue weapon...Edited by Darlon on May 1, 2018 3:57PM13 -

no where in there says that imbue weapons buffs your LIGHT ATTACK DAMAGE! It adds physical damage TO your LIGHT ATTACKS which is on a seperate dmg modifier and a Status effect which is also on a seperate modifier.

That is not what I was talking about. I specifically said in addition to it being buffed. That even if it doesn't buff your specific light attacks. In addition to your light attacks with imbue is a ridiculously strong combo.0 -
technohic✭✭✭✭✭
✭✭✭✭✭Its the same as using an ability with a light attack. I dont see it being much different than other spammables.5 -
Micah_Bayer✭✭✭✭✭Your light attack does dmg and then the skill does dmg. Together. It's strong as hell.0
-
Avran_Sylt✭✭✭✭✭
✭It's a separate damage instance, like an enchantment.
It does not get buffed by things like the CP star that increases light attack damage.
Different setups may have different max mag/spell damage, which will alter its damage.
It can take advantage of projectile based light attacks to create a burst effect much the same as any other instant cast ability, but can also be wasted if not used within 2s.Edited by Avran_Sylt on May 1, 2018 4:05PM2 -
Darlon✭✭✭✭✭Micah_Bayer wrote: »Your light attack does dmg and then the skill does dmg. Together. It's strong as hell.
It is not any different than light attack + force pulse... takes the same time to use, only difference is the damage from imbue applies at the exact same time as the light attack, but you can’t use it any faster than the other combination, still have to use imbue after (or before) every light attackEdited by Darlon on May 1, 2018 4:05PM2
