Should Sloads be nerfed? 43 votes

Yes, because I'm a scrub who refuses to learn to play. If something kills me, it has to be nerfed. I refuse to admit that I'm just bad.

No, because build variety is a good thing and Oblivion damage is just one of many things you can choose to counter with your setup.

    That's because it's new. And also because it's bugged and stacks right now. Once that is addressed it will probably die down again.

    learning to play has nothing to do with it, if you meant learn to play different classes that this set does hardcounter the main defense of then ya your right

    and in which case, no ill stick to playing what i want and as one of the 2 classes this set specifically *** on ya its incredibly broken and there is no need for it to be in the game

    both nb and sorcs have to completely change their build to deal with this 1 set and even then their reduced to tanks which isnt the same play style, not that anyone who think sloads is balanced cares cuz the only people defending this set are sorc hater or are enjoying the free ap off the easy kills

    That's because it's effective against all those people that spend their time complaining rather than adjusting. Once people stop crying and start putting more CP into health recovery and increased healing, Sload's will be just another setup that can be effective against X, but loses against Y.

    the stack isnt a bug its intended and even if they change that, its not going to make a difference, this with defile of shieldbreaker is straight up broke

    I would suggest small adjustment needed so it doesn't break stealth.

    Same goes for all other single target damage over time / delayed burst ability like vicecannon, poison injection, poison DoT, venom claw, haunting curse, bleed DoTs etc. These abilities should still cause damage if you go into stealth after initial attack, but the delayed damage should not take you out of stealth. Direct damage AOEs on the other hand (and even AOE dots like wall of elements, acid spray etc)should break stealth if they catch you in their range while you are already stealthed.

    have someone build a dot build with sloads and you tech all that stuff. sloads litterally negates healing received heavily unless you have around 4-5 templars all healer built.

    Not a bias poll at all if getting something broken fixed makes me a scrub then so be it.

    No, because it's weaker than Zaan, Caluurion, and Skoria. Nerf the others in conjunction, and I'll agree.

    if you build it right sloads is so much more dangerous than any of those combined.
