    Totally balanced because when you use an enchant you cant use poisons!!!1!!11!!

    I think you should be able to proc poisons and enchantments from the same bar because that way i have to press less buttons for more damage and that is fun!!!!

    Torug's Pact need a nerf. Maybe change it to give 2000 penetration debuff on taunting, which will not affect PvE tanking. Everything else also nerfs PvE.

    We shouldn’t have to slot a purge and sandbag our class identities just on the basis of an extra on a weapon - the same goes with bleeds. The game is getting too zerg and cheese friendly.

    What is actually going on with enchants?

    I read that both bars fire now. So, if I have a fire enchant on my back bar and shock on the front, when I hit do they both fire off and give fire AND shock damage at the same time?

    That is not what zos wants. Smallscale and solo need to be punished and zerg gameplay needs to be encouraged more every patch!

    All weapon dots proc them, off cooldown and since dual wield gets 2, all you need to do is hit someone with blood craze and they will have the skill and both enchantments procing on them, off cooldown.

    So it's not the light and heavy attacks, it's skills?

    That all sounds wrong anyway, surely the only time the enchant on a weapon should fire is when you hit someone with that actual weapon.

    But then again, if they can do it to you, you can do it to them, so it kind of balances out somewhere along the line.

    @pdblake , it always was intended to work off weapon abilities too. Tooltip was saying that, but it only worked partially until now. They just fixed that bug when enchants weren't working as intended.

    So, I see solution in disabling enchants in PvP. And poisons. Actually, weapons too - come on, you don't need weapons to show your prowess, solve it all in good ol' fistfight. And PvE part of the game with sigh with relief.

    Well magicka weapons do not have two enchants and heal staffs do not deal damage through skills. Basically magicka weapons are worse through this change than stamina weapons. Which results in an imbalance between magicka and stamina characters, since magicka characters can not make use of the same benefits stamina has. Or tell a Magsorc to use rending slashes ;)
    In general, just because everyone can use it, does not mean it is balanced.

    I didn't realise that they were supposed to fire on skills anyway tbh. Think I need to l2p lol

    So, if I slam down wall of storms from the back bar and switch to front bar and heavy attack, the enchant from the back bar is ticking away at the same time as the enchant from the front bar, as well as the damage from the skill?

    Does sound a little overpowered put like that. Especially as (I presume) I can use a staff skill on the back bar but have dual wield on the front (which I'm sure someone tried to explain above), so I could have three enchants and two skills all doing damage at the same time. While my clannfear nibbles at them (albeit not as effectively as before, but that is getting fixed, allegedly).

    Just slot Armor Master backbar, then 3 Protective and Impreg on body, then get a magplar friend to pocket heal you with TK and Transmutation while he spams resto ults. Then slot 5 Torug's, install Fallout 76, then go play that game instead.

    The new enchants on Twin Slashes accounts for 16k DPS on dummy parses by itself, with no light attacks or any other skills. This needs a nerf across the board.
