FIX RUNE CAGE!! this is so bad - do you guys even test this ?

MakoFore

The problem with rune cage is that the animation you guys have is so delayed- its impossible to break in a timely fashion- . compare it to streak or fear- the reaction time to break it is clearly longer......
fix this crap- for us with bag ping- its even worse- do u guys even play this game- how does a problem like this get into the game- let alone go unchecked for this long?!? and then get "repaired:" with only a small dps nerf.

Strider__Roshin

Nah it's obviously the damage

They should make the stun only work if your health + shields total is less than your target!

The change is misguided. The goal is to make a balanced skill, not one everyone will just avoid. The issue was the stun, so I'm not entirely who's idea it was to change the damage.

One of the reasons why I don't play battlegrounds is because of Rune Cage. On a magic character it's just CAGE CAGE CAGE dead

Nyladreas

The change made in the recent patch only proves that ZOS is completely and utterly disconnected from PvP Aspect of the game.

Either that, or Wrobel mains a Magsorc.

The Cage change is the most ridiculous "fix" I've ever seen in an MMO or possibly any multiplayer game. Well played. Now I know I still don't have to come back into the game. Spent weeks waiting, I guess I'll just keep at it a bit longer.

Enslaved

Everybody (but sorcs) agrees on how broken 5 second ranged unblockable stun is.
Zos come and nerf its damage by 20%.
As if damage was the issue.
zos logic at it finest.

Gprime31

lol I thought rune cage was doing too much dmg.

Chrysa1is

Wait...

I had to look up Rune Cage. Did they really reduce the 500+ damage it does by 20%?

The facepalm scale factor is so high. Seriously, what on earth were they thinking?

Troneon

Everyone complains about the CC issue with Rune....

ZOS ignores them and nerfs damage instead....

I told everyone Sorcs are the only class with a special passive skill : 99% damage reduction from zos nerfs...

Special treatment for sorcs again...

Nah, even a lot of sorcs agree it's OP.

I've died to snipe exploiters more than I have died to rune. Yet rune threads outnumber snipe threads 10 to 1.

Honestly there have been sorc complaining also about how Rune Cage works, as it hits also Sorcs so don't make it sound like every sorc are alright with something like this. Being locked down independent of class until dead isn't a good mechanic the way lag work and how hard it is to actually get break free to work in time.

Biro123

Its simple.. pre-summerset, cage did no damage. Nobody complained.

They added damage - everybody complains..

Therefore, the problem = damage...


Sorry guys - if the only problem was the unblockable/undodgeable-ranged-cc part, you should have all been complaining last patch...

I would disagree. Magsorcs got a ton stronger this patch. If you removed the damage component the death combo would still be just as viable.

This is a no counterplay ability that needs to be removed. Magsorcs will remain being a talentless class until that's changed.

Go play BG or IC and you will mostly die due to Rune Cage!

Years worth of work.
Patch 1: nerf frag stun and add rc range stun (uncounterable)
Patch 2: add more damage to rc
Patch 3: reduce damage to rc
Patch 4??: give rc damage back.. nerf frag more

To be fair, these are no other CC options for a magicka sorc. Flame Reach is the most ridiculous CC ever and is broken in air even, you can never land a frags before they CC break and block/roll. And frags doesn't have a stun anymore.

I'm all about finding humor in a sarcasm laced way in things.

DenMoria

Poor NBs. Now they can't just run away and hide in a dark corner until the opportunity to unfairly gank everybody comes up.

Somebody can actually defend themselves against them!

FakeFox

Give shards it's stun back and take rune cage out of the game. Problem fixed and you have a open skill you can do something new with, maybe for sorc healers or tanks.
