Some of the responses to countering this build are ..........laughable. Clearly showing the person saying them has never encountered this build.

ive ran into some of these builds and my resistances are just so high they dont do even a fraction of that damage to me but im also max level. with all my stuff set perfect for pvp so theres that some unexperienced players might run into this issue.

Okay so I originally believe it was the new skill line, but no its not. Firstly, Sorcs got them lovely spammable shields to live which is cool... Now every sorc I run into including volunteers just spam overload that just shrekt on anyone until theyre out of stamina dodge rolling.... Then it ultra shrekts them with 15-30k LA.

I really do not understand how they can nerf that without destroying the whole Ultimate.

These sorc play without any survavibility, with full damage set and witht the worst sustain ever seen in Cyrodiil. They don't even have a single shield on their Overload bar, for full damage ( Crystal blast, Bound armement, Inner light, rune cage, pet ) They also have a lower stamina pool, this mean you can CC them and kill them easily. What would be the point of this build if they nerf the damage ?

Anyway, With all these nerf Overload thread they will probably nerf the sorc, maybe they should change the whole ultimate instead ? or Balance Overload ? Or maybe Both ?

Power Overload
-Change it, so you could still do your rotation and swap bar, and each light attack with a weapon would consume ultimates and deal additional damage ( like elemental weapons) until you run out or toggle off the ultimate, or make it deplete ultimate every 2 sec, so it only work with a good weaving.
Charge your fists weapons with the power of the storm, Light attacks become Lightning bolts dealing X additional damage, and your heavy attacks blast enemies in target area near the target for X additional damage. Both attacks restores 300 magicka ( this would help with sustain a bit ) Attacks deplete Ultimate until you run out or the ability is toggled off. you can not gain ultimate while using this ultimate.

Energy Overload
- Keep it as it is " Charge your fists ect..." but reduce the damage, and increase the time travel,
- Or Make The auditive clue more noticeable, you know, something that you can not miss, like the old jorvuld sound (but for the storm). if you don't pay attention to it you would deserve to be ganked. This would be fair.

But they can't just " Nerf the damage ", if you think that, then you should really L2P or use one of these suggestions:

• Change your CP ?
• Change your Mundus ?
• Slot a Burst heal ?
•

Sorcs are doing crazy damage all around with too big of 60k+ magicka shields

Bruh he said " ganking" I don't care how good you think you are, everyone has been ganked before and still can be.

Enjoyed to read delusional comments by ppl who did not see what overload gank can do.

ZoS hears your concern, and in response they will nerf BoL by 33%. Again.

Better suggestion:

Make BoL damage the secondary target instead of healing it! Like NBs Malevolent Offering but you can kill yourself (or other friendly players) with it! Derp level over 9000.

It can one shot not prepared enemies especially the ones with low resistances and health. So ? Is it something new that was not happening in the past on some other builds ? Is it something that started to happen on magsorc only after Summerset update ?

so you want overload nerfed because of a set that was added nearly 2 years ago with the one tamriel update and only found in Auridon?

how about we nerf a PvP skill that can be used in PvE instead like vigor, caltrops or magicka detonation

I don't know a single sorc with 60k magicka, cept maybe an emperor. Sorcs maybe get 50k with Necropotence in pvp.

Not true. I have stream ganked almost every pro player with that build. Even Fengrush when he groups with other 4 players.
But I got bored with that build. Too easy to kill and doesn't bring the same satisfaction as killing someone after a real fight.

Screen shot or it didn’t happen.

This one just want one change in game balance, Nerf requests cost 30 CP:
Yes some will use this to stay in low level PvP

Buff request is free and Khajiit should be allowed to have multiple rings on their tail, its lore friendly because of the Alinor ringtail or the tail with an critter in front.

Well, those Overloads are hitting 2-3k harder than Asylum Snipes now (which are harder to land).
