Sloads and duroks bane should be looked into

Edit: to those of you saying to purge it, let me just waste the virtually nonexistent pool of magic casting it on a stam class and get the same debuff 2 seconds later.

why are these two sets implemented the way they are? Duroks bane has virtually no cooldown and defile is strong and this having no cooldown just makes healing that much tougher, and you combine that with sloads and you have a dot on you that you can only really heal through to counter and duroks bane makes it that much more frustrating to counter sloads… With the amount of cheese going around I am surprised zos hasn't come out and created a ingame pizza recipe that would make sheogorath proud

    While durok's is an obvious way to achieve defile, it's far from alone, and in my opinion, other sets can perform better

    Edit: not at getting defile; better stats with access to defile

    Stop posting this dumb answer. No class can afford to give up a skill slot just to deal with one set, thereby gimping yourself in ever other fight. I know you and others want to keep your cheap sets because you can’t win otherwise, but it shouldn’t be required to change your build just to deal with one op proc set because a few tryhards finally feel like they can win.

    Defending sloads by telling someone to l2p is incredibly ironic.

    Not exactly a constructive answer, and is the type of response that puts the pvp side of eso in a bad light, similar to the more elitist part of pve where they also say l2p without saying how to improve.

    Its not really possible to purge on a stam sorc with a virtually non existant mag pool and cast it every two seconds when the entire enemy team is using sloads and constantly stack it on me.

    While durok's is an obvious way to achieve defile, it's far from alone, and in my opinion, other sets can perform better

    Edit: not at getting defile; better stats with access to defile

    by far the best answer, but those other sets that have access to defile have a cooldown and while duroks have *** stats, players in battlegrounds have 3 other people to support them and take advantage of their perma defile buddies set bonus

    Yeah Sloads' is strong, but there are sets that need nerfed before Sloads.

    Of course if you're an OP shield spammer or sometime who uses shadowy disguise you probably think this is the worst thing in the world because something is actually able to damage you

    This is truly a case of learning to adapt. Part of PVP is changing your playstyle to remain relevant in the current patch. We saw Mechanical Aquity rise and fall. Sloads will do the same. Ride it out, it is fairly easy to purge/heal through the 900 damage every 6 seconds. If you're too glass cannon to handle that, then that is on you. Adapt, pure and simple.

    1v1 its fine its when its 1 v X that is a problem.

    Your all your heals are busy keeping you alive from the onslaught. then you are getting hit will all these sload procs.

    It needs to be weakend specifically in 1 v X situations.

    Shieldbreaker is mostly not the same because you would have to have everyone running shieldbreaker for it to be a problem and that would only happen in a Sorc OP meta ( which we are not in)

    Sload´s Semblance will be nerfed, it´s inevitable, so people don´t have to worry about it too much.

    Durok´s Bane is in the top 3 of the most un-balanced sets in this game. And with Summerset you´re not sacrificing anything by running it on one bar. If your enemy purge/removes the debuff you can just re-apply it within a second without spending any effort doing so.

    I would like to see Durok´s Bane being remade into a defensive version of Cyrodil´s Crest:
    "When you take damage, you apply major defile on your enemy for 5 seconds. This can occur once every 10 second"

    This way you´ll have high uptime in 1v1, but you can´t debuff someone permanently.

    Sload is a well known problem in eso. Anyone that tells others to L2P is either a sload user, or doesnt know PvP balance. Sload literally counters magicka classes that use shield. Combine the set with oblivion enchant, and you pretty much burn through any mag sorcs and mag blades. You can't tell people to L2P when everyone in cyrodill starts using sloads. If it wasnt broken nobody would use it.
