For improvement purpose and enhancement to the quality of life of the game, I am requesting changes to the following skills (please..):
- Silver Leash to cost majicka instead of stam: This would benefit non-DK tanks and work similar to the DK's chain. Sorc tank, Tamplar tank and even NB tank will surely benefit by using Silver Leash to pull in adds, but not costing so much stamina that is needed for other skills and blocking. Also, not costing over 3k majicka. This will improve non-DK tanks' performance in dungeons and trials. I enjoy rolling out with my sorc, Warden and Tamplar tanks and would love to use Silver Leash to pull in adds like the chains of DK can. Just costing too much stamina right now to viably slot it.
- Dark Deal (and the other morph:) Currently, you have to a wait couple seconds after cast in order to be able to swap bar. Make it like Resolving Vigor and allow bar swap instantly upon cast. Just crazy waiting for the current cool-down time to pass to be able to swap bar. This will surely improve combat performance.
- Crystallized Slab (or the other morph:) Add damage reduction so Warden can have damage shield; similar to Igneous Shield, Hardened Ward and Blazing Shield. Warden just need a good overall class damage shield and not just absorbing 3 projectiles.
These are all for now. Good ZOS folks, take these change requests into deep consideration, please. These will surely help improve combat mechanic and quality of life to the game.

https://media.giphy.com/media/sdEkeWpiaGz0A/giphy.gifMundus Stones- High elf, since you will not have issues with sustain, but other mag based races are also fine so this is more of a personal choice.
https://media.giphy.com/media/cT3wMhLGQWdKU/giphy.gifCurrent Champion Points- PvP: The Steed for speed. Gotta go fast!
- PvE Healing/Damage: The Thief for decent crit rate.
- PvE Tanking: The Lady to get close to resistance cap.

https://media.giphy.com/media/3otPoTggaYFNd1FdAI/giphy.gif- Parse Food for PvE:(DPS) Ghastly Eye Bowl (increases Max Magicka by 4592 and Magicka Recovery by 459 for 2 hours).
- Gold/Purple Food for Sorc PvP and Meme Tanking:(PvP) Clockwork Citrus Filet (increases Max Health by 3326, Health Recovery by 406 [useful if stage 1 vampire], Max Magicka by 3080, and Magicka Recovery by 338 for 2 hours). Witchmother's Potent Brew (Increase Max Magicka by 2856, Max Health by 3094, and Magicka Recovery by 315 for 2 hours.
- Trash Potions when feeling cheap: Regular CP150 Essence of Magicka pots that I obtain frequently from playing the game or Crown Tri-Restoration Potion obtained from dailies.
- Crafted Potions: Essence of Spell Critical (Bugloss, Lady's Smock, and Water Hyacinth). Without magelight this is my primary means of obtaining Major Prophecy on my Sorc, which increases my Spell Critical Rating. This also heals and restores magicka. Essence of Immovability (Columbine, Corn Flower, and Wormwood). I use this in PvP, since this gives me stealth detection, knockback immunity, and restores magicka (better to use it when competent allies are nearby, since it might reveal that you are surrounded by multiple players in stealth and you will not have an emergency pot available after use). Essence of Invisibility with only 2 ingredients (Blue Entoloma, Namira's Rot, Nirnroot, or Spider Egg). I use this in PvE content that requires stealth and if I need more speed I'll use Rapid Maneuver before using the potion. Essence of Invisibility with 3 ingredients (Blessed Thistle, Blue Entoloma, and Namira's Rot). Very useful in PvP alongside the vampire Dark Stalker passive, since you'll be invisible, ignore movement speed penalty while in Crouch, and you'll have a 30% movement speed boost from Major Expedition (I always have this slotted when riding from point A to B in PvP land, since gankers are always lurking). My templar/arcanist will mostly use Essence of Health (Tri-Stat Potion) Ingredients: (Mountain Flower, Columbine, and Bugloss).

ShadowKyuubi✭✭✭✭As someone you plays a NB tank, I am perfectly fine with silver leash being a stamina skill. Most of my other skills are already magic based, and I couldn't afford leash if it was magicka. To compensate for the extra stamina cost, I just build slightly higher in stamina. Running Alkosh, I have 27k stamina.
I have no problem with the twin adds in vMoL, so leash doesn't need to change.Edited by ShadowKyuubi on September 23, 2019 10:19PM0 -

✭✭✭✭✭Silver leash, Also for dk tanks u get the option to use mag or stam. Another point. It is a stamina tree skill.Edited by zvavi on September 24, 2019 4:57PM0 -
malistorr✭✭✭✭Read all the patch notes and direction they want to take the game and you'll see it's just nerf city. Instead of making enemies more difficult they're just decreasing damage players can do. I doubt that will change any time within the next year or 2.0

To be completely honest, it doesn't matter if they buff enemies or nerf us (pve wise), and i am i am 100% sure there is more chance they will f*** up everything while buffing enemies. And somehow, it will only happen in the eu servers. Therefore i am fine with that conclusion.
I didn't type a well written answer to it so will say my opinion. To be completely honest, the cost increase last patch did make it cost too much. Especially in chain heavy fights #SO before 1st boss. But.GreenhaloX wrote: »- Silver Leash to cost majicka instead of stam: This would benefit non-DK tanks and work similar to the DK's chain.

- it wouldn't benefit non dk tanks. It depends on how u build them. Some will get benefit. Some will lose out. I can easily see templar, sorc, warden, nb losing on it. Didnt list necro cause not familiar with it enough.
- being heavy on resources can be dealt differently. U know. Like cost reduction.
- there is always the option of using swarm mother. And if u think it is not viable, then u haven't seen it being used in a coordinated group. Best add stacks i have seen in vFV were been from @CreepyPahuska on his sorc tank using that set.

- it has cast time. Like all cast time skills, if u r asking for overhaul to cast time abilities, i am against it. I mean, i am fine with animation cancelling, but bar swapping to a bar that doesn't have the ability you are currently casting is too much for me.
- i would agree that it is clanky, and highering the window u can pre-bar swap might be a better solution.

- cant believe you added hardened ward to the list. So bad right now unless u build into it and that comes instead of group utility.
- class diversity plz.Edited by zvavi on September 25, 2019 6:52AM1 -
Luckylancer✭✭✭✭✭Dark deal bar swap is annoying. It dont have to be as wast as instant cadt abilities but it is too slow now.
Every class dont need class shield. Hardened ward and other 2 zhield you mention are diffrent as night and day too.0 -

When they removed the 1s cooldown on damage from Crystalised Slab it actualy became a really good skill and shutdown some playstyles..... Sniper mainly. then in Dragonhold they added a 0.5s cooldown -_-
maybe increase the amount of shields on the Slab morph. but not every class has or needs a full damage shield skill.PS NA
Have played all classes.

✭✭✭✭✭Silver Leash. My DK tank uses it instead of Chains precisely because it is a stam skill. My tank is beefy enough that he doesn't have to spend much time blocking and needs the magicka for Talons and other magicka eaters. Same reason we use the stam morph of Undaunted ranged taunt.
Dark Deal/morphs. Agree completely. the skill is horribly clunky to use and not being able to bar swap for a couple seconds after using it is terrible.PC NA(no Steam), PvE, mostly solo0
