For All crying about Dizzying Swing

LuxLunae

Dizzy Swing takes skillz... u died because your are skilless

get good...

Now excuse me while I go to BGs and bully everybody with dizzying swing...

QQ becuase Dizzying Swing is the answer to Living Dark and other AOE, DOT resist builds...

When I have to decide between an execute and Dizzying Swing ... I CHOSE DIZZYING SWING!!!(if they heal, your execute turns to trash damage... dizzy is constant)
When I have to choose between any stam templar move(*** face jabs that get nerfed by major evasion) or Dizzying swing... I CHOSE DIZZYING SWING!!!
When I have to heal or use Dizzying Swing... I CHOOSE DIZZYING SWING!!!!(Lets face it 2h heal is trash now. let it expire heal u...)
When I have to chose between surprise attack or dizzying swing I CHOSE DIZZYING SWING..(surprise attack is utterly worthless IMO I don't cloak as an NB)
When I have to choose between DK DOTS and Dizzing Swing... I PUT THE DOTS ON THEN DIZZY SWING!!!(DK ORC FTW)
When I have to choose between an Ulti and Dizzying Swing...I CHOSE DIZZYING SWING!!! (I go use flawless dawnbreaker in the middle of nowhere for the 300 WD. I have dizzy to stun)
When I have to choose between champion points and dizzying swing... I CHOSE DIZZYING SWING!!! (with cp everything in direct damage of course)

Dizzying Swing is LIFE!!!

Not that all this occurred not because dizzying swing was buffed or is better...it is because ZoS nerfed everything on the board...So then they caused another pigeon hole... like they did back in the day when everybody and their mothers were using dawnbreaker of smiting... (i was using sweeps but they nerfed it for stamina users... it's utter trash...)

I didn't have veiled heritance or Ravager to proc my damage from AoE (usually my jabs) or DoT moves (which some get nerfed by major evasion) So what did I do? What did everybody else did?

We picked up Dizzying Swing....

Surprise attack is worthless... 5% physical resistance decrease? NO... 10% would have been ok...Then you try to justify that by saying that worthless mark move reduces 5k resists... I don't slot that mark move on my bar.. do you know why? I don't cloak....I don't gank....Everybody and their mothers know to run away when you place that mark on them... it has become trash to even place.. no real NB would use it...I only have 50-60 skill points on the NB and I can see that...

I mean..why in the hell would I try to run or heal when there are strong DOTS on me? Go straight to them ....Dizzy them... because if i try to jab somebody with anything around them (pets, people, guards, etc) .. that sure as hell won't work..

Oh and now that I realized bash moves faster than a light attack... hmmm...there is something there... As bash is also a single target direct damage...

The direct damage sorcs knew they key to play all along...

Now to be fair...I am probably not finding anything new....this was probably some old style of play that was not widely used until the nerfs...

ZoS's answer will probably be to do what they did to Dawnbreaker...luckily I haven't been animation cancelling recently lol...

Remember I use flawless dawnbreaker in the middle of nowhere to get 300 WD for 20 seconds... Back in the day flawless gave me 6% WD... I was able to hit some high numbers with that with ravager.... now I lowered my WD since I get a constant 300 WD... and put that into other places...


TLDR: ZoS fault I use Dizzying Swing...Direct Damage is the new Meta...ORC DK FTW....

EDIT: This was made before the pts patch update and was made as a joke to show that yes. I did do all these things because it was truly OP. Now maybe dizzying swing should have stayed the same, but then how would they fix the rest of the classes to make sure that people would choose their class ability over dizzy? They just made "progress" these past months nerfing classes. Now instead of changing classes again. Just change one skill. I am having fun watching the tears flow

No, dizzy swing will NOT get its stun back. It was stupid to have to begin with.

If dizzy swing will get it stun back,
1. It's cast time must be removed.
2. Its damaged halfed (or 75% of current) and
3. it stuns on the spot removing the knockback.
4. The removal of the current off-balance.

Personally I like the new change to Dizzying swing.

1. Sets the person off-balance giving %more damage to the enemy
2. Can heavy attack an off balance person to stun them
3. Gain more resources when you heavy attack an off balanced person
4. Choose when to stun within about 8 seconds of off balance.
5. Gives them less time to predict when the combo is coming...if you are good.

I haven't played since Wolfhunter, but it warms my heart that even after all this time, people are still crying about Dizzy Swing. Some things never change.

dizzy is very good on stamplar since jabs are hard to land, while target is knocked you can land all four hits and the 70% slow while the break free animation rolls.

Not gonna lie, I’ve been in too many situations where the person using dizzy is out of range of my whip but their able to wind up dizzy swings. The somewhat broken thing about it is if you see it being wound up you have a low chance of blocking it. Even worse, before I have time to break the first cc the second dizzy swing can already be que’d and still land. Dizzy swing gets somewhat annoying when the person your facing has immense moving speed, making t hard to block or kite.

SpiderKnight

80% of my death caps had at least 2 dizzy swings. It's like some people don't know how to play without spamming one button.

Remember when everyone ran around Cyrodiil using Wrecking Blow? I guess every skill has its day.

Dinokstrun

Dizzy is very strong at the moment, it's basically a melee snipe with a powerful knock up which can be awkward is CC break but the real issue with dizzy is how delayed it can be since by the time your character reacts by hitting the ground you can essentially be hit by 2/3 more dizzying swings from the same person. I can see dizzy getting nerfed for Q4 but hopefully not I like using this skill atm lol.

The OP is like an Ode To Dizzying Swing

Well, if 80% of your death recaps have at least 2 dizzy swings, then maybe it's on the people that don't know how to react to one button spam.

I never get this argument, since your build has a spam-able most likely also. There are very few people that run a build with no spam-able to use once buffs/dots are up. and those are usually some kind of burst gank build in which those same people would /tell "brain dead heavy attack bro no skillz"


so please, what class/race/build are you running so I can tell you how you suck because god forbid you use that skill with that class instead of falling over dead for me like everyone else

Quoted for truth
Therein lies the issue with its defenders like every overtuned or broken skill/mechanic/bug in game..

SpiderKnight

So many people defend an overpowered, overused skill, might lose their mindless wins if it's nerfed like it should be. No counter to a team full of spamtards going against one person with dizzy.

Should’ve stopped reading after this. This must be another troll. Didn’t bother reading the whole thing about another dizzy swing thread but the skill is definitely overperforming and we most certainly don’t need another thread saying dizzy swing isn’t actually OP atm nor a thread trying to say dizzy swing is OP with a lot of sarcasm.

A weapon skill should never be better than a class‘s spammable yet..BiS for stamden/stamsorc/stamcro/stamplar/stamdk

Interesting 🤔

Next they'll nerf that too and keep bringing the entire game quality down to the point where light attacks will be op and they'll need to nerf that too.

Given that stamsorcs have so few stamina abilities, any weapon skill that did damage would be superior.

zParallaxz

Don’t nerf the damage, heck even give it a 5% buff to damage. But the range needs to be tuned down slightly and the sync needs to be fixed. No one should be hit with close to 3 dizzy swings before a (competent) player can break the first cc. Not to mention the hard hitting combo in this current patch of a couple dizzys into a 2h ulti.
