You are nerfing bleed the wrong way

Please have a look at this Fengrush video. 1h 44min 0 sec. He explains perfectly why dual wields bleed is so strong at the moment, and why you are nerfing it the wrong way (which won't solve the issue anyway) https://youtu.be/-AmxRLMu7iQ?t=6240

Imo the best bleed builds dont need axes. Been playing around a lot on the PTS and I think from a PVP perspective its nicer to have higher damage from swords or daggers, with the consistency of the abilities that bleed. Carve and Slashes.

Also, add ?t=6240 to the end of your link to make it start where you want people to go.

Bleed is one of the funnest playstyles in the game, so I do worry if it gets completely ruined.

Personally id love to see it become more options for bleeds in the game, maybe even see a more bleed centric PVE build become viable (Atm from my own testing a highly bleed centric build pulls about 34k on a stamblade, but it leave you with like 9k health lol)

How did you even manage that?

Even without masters DW thats higher than I managed to get with 30k stam and 6k dmg, and a whole heck of a lot of damage buffs. Only thing I can think is the Maelstrom DW for the extra 2k damage?

I'm guessing something along the lines of full Balorgh buff, vMA dw rapid strikes in to a bar swap for blooddrinker or deadly strikes duel wield.

Not gonna lie though. The bleed is sickening lol. 4k+ per second in bleeds. 2k+ in PvP is still nasty

validifyedneb18_ESO

Yeah I think it must be Balorgh, all I can get is 27k over 9 seconds, using both the bleed sets, Masters and Maelstrom DW. Could maybe push it higher with more buffs on a NB (My testing char is stamsorc). I get more damage with Slimecraw (28k) on for example because I dont get Minor Zerk on an ability.

Still, 116k Rend over 16 seconds isnt bad.

sword is pretty underwhelming at live, while axe really do some work at pvp.
axe bleed could reach 5%+ damage done at pvp in long fight and even more damage at short fight.

now the only problem left is master rending slash at pvp with dat 2k+ tick

Master weapons definitely need a nerf.
