    Next patch will be a buff if you are a RP. It will be a nerf if you do anything else in the game.

    Regardless of what they do, they are only half done. If they go all in on the nerfs, there are many skills and sets that were left untouched that they will have to go back and hammer down. Maelstrom Staff should not be BIS on stam toons. Volatile Armor should not be the best dot for a DK. Orbs shouldn't be your best AOE dot. Things like that. If they want to go ahead, they need to do it completely.

    The other option is that they back off on some of the changes so that these outliers are more in line.

    it works.
    Grinding just make you go in circles.
    Asking ZoS for nerfs is as stupid as asking for close air support from the death star.

    I thought that they were actually going to that, I kind of remember hearing/reading something like that.

    Cut their model size in half? Give them a negative health regen while transformed? I'm sure there's something.

    First one will be a buff in PvP... The second one is beautiful. Get rid of the timer. And make werewolf slowly lose health while transformed. Brilliant.

    Brian Wheeler will be in touch with you soon.

    While I don't think vMA staff should be bis on stam toons,I hardly think nerfing one of the tools that can bring magic closer to stam is the right way.They need to explore other options to do this.

    Prediction goes as such,

    play testers say the overall dps loss will effect mid to low tier players the most.

    well informed guesses say this will place a bigger divide between C-tier and S-tier players.

    the casual eso players cry about not getting into raids because dps requirements are too high,

    patch 5.1 includes more nerfs to overall dps

    the viscious cycle continues until patch 6. when ZOS purposes a new system of universal DOT skills as meta.

    They could just reword it in a way that nerfs the stam component while leaving the mag component intact. Just make it work only with light attacks from staves for instance. Still a nerf for specific builds but I don't think they're overly concerned with what players think at the moment.

    The point is that with dots nerfed, a higher percentage of your overall damage can potentially come from light attacks, making them much more relevant and pushing skills and gear that buff light attacks into the spotlight. I'd like to give them enough credit that they realized this would be a consequence of dot nerfs. Any source of empower needs to be looked at closely as well. If they indeed go through with sweeping dot nerfs, something else takes over as the new best thing, and would be on their radar.

    1vXing nerf, zerg buff;
    Pvp buff for whole group which scales with bigger number of group members, call it "Battle brothers" or so.

    Can we expect that balance patch by 2025 or is that too optimistic?
