Why do you people constantly jump in battlegrounds?

Asared

Cause jumping and whipping on a MagDK looks cool.

Amdar_Godkiller

Cause I'm a WW and I have no sustain self control.

Dr_Rektar

Perma-jumping in PvP, whether it be Cyrodiil or Battlegrounds, is the most infantile and ludicrous behaviour, and indicative that the person you are confronted with, with all likelihood is one of those 'competitive' diehards that have polluted most other player versus player online games with their dubious presence.

Easiest cure for this malady would be to simply turn off all skills and attacks while jumping, just like they are turned off when sprinting.

Idk man I find it quite infantile if people get annoyed over something such as people jumping...


- It's a great way to keep momentum in one direction while looking in another direction.
- It certainly makes it easier to target people who have a bit of high ground on you.
- You have a better overview as you can look over players.
- I don't know why but barswap cancels during jumping somehow feel smoother.

I certainly don't spam the jump button like some people do, but there are definitely situational uses for it.

Actually, you can't be rooted in the air. How come that nobody here know it?

Fossile works on player when he is in the air for instance... or no.. gonan check it after maintance

Tooltip check will be enough. Fossilize is first stun, then root.

Sure, once they make it so you stop being hung up on every damn pebble and root on the ground, and make it so an ankle-high terrain piece won't interrupt LoS and prevent me from targeting an enemy, I'll stop jumping. Until then, bunny hops are a way around terrain snare and los issues.

Sometimes when you have multiple people on you, I cant even see my character with all the effects going off, and jumping lets me know Ive not been cc'd

Kikke

Why jump? Quickturns, bunnyjumps, block jump, platform jumping, ghost jumping and many many other uses of jumping in PvP.

Kikke

And for PvP and PvE, jump too target something in the back.

DeadlyRecluse

Jumping lets you pivot your vision without turning your character model.

This is useful for directional AOEs and situational awareness.

ATomiX96

you can even "speedjump" which makes you faster than sprinting without wasting stamina , its really hard to pull it off and chain the jumps where you actually might get benefit from it and only works on flat surfaces but I consistently got my characters on PTS banned (1 week lockout) with it lol.

Jumping helps me animation cancel my macros faster.

Wait, you can still hit them if they walk through you like that?

You are not a bad tank for requiring healer. Especially for maximum performance.

If you're a DK and you need a healer then yes, you are a bad tank.

And aren't you the one to complain about Redguard not having health boost? I don't think you are the one to judge on this matter.

What are you, stalking me now? Want me to go to all your posts and mention your racial bias or something and tell you to shut up as well?

This is not very clear and seems unnecessarily slanderous. If you do push for health bonus I'd think you just want to make Redguard even more OP than it already is. As someone who plays an Imperial Templar I dream of getting the kind of Stamina bonuses that a Redguard has. (By the way I have a Stamplar Redguard on EU as well and you can feel the difference in a very serious way).

At any regard I would have assumed the fella was just recommending that your suggestion of the health bonus on Redguards disqualifies you in having an opinion. I don't agree with that assessment but I do think if you feel Redguards are weak you are missing the plot.

You may be missing the plot here.

For some reason I just jump. Continuously.

Let me jump in peace.

RedTalon

It can be a fun thing to do. Nothing wrong with jumping about and having some fun.

Strider__Roshin

Not sure. Honestly I'm surprised the game even allows you to cast abilities while jumping considering the fact that you have to be in a meditative state to even successfully use a potion.

This!

As dumb as it may sound, in BG's, I am ALWAYS getting caught on something stupid and small that stops me from running/walking or casting and it's extremely annoying.

Because you're not.

So please stop acting like a spaz.
