I would be fine with 1 second cast time...

Like why the hell you feel like you can speak for everyone? there are a lot of eso players that are not speaking out about this, and you made a chaos after ZOS planned on having a cast time on shields, now they nerfed shields to the ground and its so much harder and not fun to play mag classes in pve, it completely changed pve for me for the worst. i have to spam shields way more often and when i do, it really doesnt feel like i used it as enemies melt it like nothing, so we are basically stam players with way less survivability.
and if we use more resistance? well there goes our dps to the garbage.

Even on *** normal dungeons my sorc or my magwarden cant stay alive(15k resis), this is pathetic! my dps right now is 30-33k with both, so i not a new player or something (600cp), and im not making it up and im sure every mag players know that this is broken.


The changes on shields should not have applied to PVE, its not fair or fun anymore.

you all should have shut up when they announced the 1 second cast time. of course that would suck too but now its like not using shields at all. removed completely from PVE.

    For your average dungeon, just slot a self heal and you are pretty much good to go.

    If you want to complain about vMA or vet DLC dungeons then you may have something to complain about, but in the case of vet DLC dungeons everything that's dangerous one shots you through a 25k shield while blocking anyway.

    I also agree that I would have taken the 1 sec cast time over the current implementation.

    My magwarden did nMA on my first attempt ever at MA. PvE content it's a ton of fun to play, likewise in Cyro too.
    Created a MagSorc a few days ago and likewise I'm having lots of fun with that build so far. Can't understand the people crying who never can adapt to things.

    yep of course, i gave normal dungeon as an example of something easy that high cp players should have no problem facing like they used too. this alone should make the developers rethink there changes. its simply broken.

    But vet? how boy i feel like a doll there, 1-2 touches and im done. and there i cant get my dps lower, as its with randoms most likely... so gotta carry.. now ofcourse isnt possible.

    This makes it not fun and not fair, it should be reverted. i will take 1 second cast time without a doubt.

    You blame the players, while it's already known who this is to be blamed on. Imma just say chief combat designer in charge. :trollface:

    No, its not about adapting.
    Its trying, learning, and coming to a conclusion that this is not right.

    If so then its not a game mechanic issue its a l2p issue.

    Who is OP talking to?

    Besides the reality OP would be dead a lot more often with that 1 second cast time, the other reality is the forums lit up on the idea.

    Where was OP when that discussion was going on? A little late for the dance, clearly.

    You ran nMA and decided combat was all good?

    I don't mean to downplay your achievement, but try it on vet with your mag Warden and let me know how it goes.

    Ok, im seeing a pattern here. let me make it simple for you all.
    first of all, no, i can go to any dungeon and not die. that goes without saying.
    BUT,if im playing like before, i will die, and not only that, i will have to play it so passively, and its just not fun. yes try to twist my words, to make you arguments true i guess? pathetic.

    OK I only tried to help, if you build a glass cannon then you are squishy, all they did was bring shields inline which now they are a lot better, not perfect but better.
    The game evolves with every introduction of new bugs or re-emergence of old bugs sorry I mean 'DLC updates' you must evolve with it or get left behind.
    Play how you want.

    Zos intended for the shield change to alter the way we play so the fact you need to change the way you play to survive is exactly what Zos expected.
