    No. F***ing no. Finally mag dk has a unique build for magicka. It feels special. thats how all classes should be. every class should feel unique, with their own options. Make all classes and specs unique like you did with mag dk.

    Edit: i dont even play my mag dk.

    This is never going to happen however. It is only going downward from now on. So unfortunately, it has to go.

    And nerf mag dks why? They hit 90kish dps but so do necros and stamina Templar’s, you can hit 88k with sorc and mag nightblades (plus a op execute)

    For once Pve dps is pretty balanced if you have the time to learn the class.
    If anything I’d say it’s given people more of a chance to play a mag Dk, and allowed the option for people play more classes ,instead of all top end groups just being Stacked with magblades and necros.

    Without taking sides, I'll be the devil's advocate and will say that you won't hit that on magblade as easily as you'll hit it on mDK, and stamplar's 96k is mostly jab spam. From that point of view, the game's not really balanced, because what's the point in tackling dynamic rotation (where things don't line up and procs' reliability heavily depends on ping) when you can easily get more with a braindead one on a different class.

    And Elf Bane

    Elf bane is optional since only one dk can use Burning Talons and the rest doesnt get as much out of it.

    Can you explain? I don't follow your logic as to why only one DK would get the benefit of talons.

    I´ve been told by the People that played magdk in my Group ( I played magcro for colossus) that Burning Talons from different People dont stack, just like Backlash and Morphs from different People didnt used to stack.

    MagDK been getting crapped on for months by ZOS. We finally get something shiny and people already crying 🤣

    Sure, make N us borderline E useless in PvE again, but R give us our good F wings back, S harder hitting dots O that actually perform R for their cost, better C mobility, a class purge, and increase our skill ranges.

    Edit: Imma need an execute too frfr

    Not another nerd thread.
    Zos has already indicated they are done with class balancing.

    Rather than asking for nerfs, I recommend you get good with you're preferred class. This will allow you to get better vs asking for the game and classes to be worse.

    You will never be a good player by asking for nerfs

    Second half of the quote aside, I don't think ZOS claimed anything of that sort. Instead, balancing is ongoing, overhauls are still coming up.

    Fo Sho. I’ve been playing all mag and MagDK is harder to play then I thought, I’m pretty bad at it. The people who are doing well are just good players.
    Looking for any guildies I used to play with:
    Havoc Warhammer - Alair
    LoC EQ2 - Mayi and Iskiab
    Condemned and Tabula Rasa - Rift - Iskiab
    Or anyone else I used to play games with in guilds I’ve forgotten

    The MagDK doesnt need a nerf. The more the devs mess with the characters the worse they make them. Its getting really old having to change my build every time they roll an update. Please stop catering to the casual players so much.

    If this is true, then it must be a bug and fixed. I would tag someone from ZOS if I knew how to see if we could get official response from them one way or the other.

    The two different morphs stack. If you saw the same skill then somebody could have hit the ignite synergy.

    I agree that MagDK is absurdly strong but only 1vs1. Also its because of dumb idea of unused stamina since he is mag (block and heal himself), so a lot of his strenghts comes from bad game design. Also he is biggest pain for vampires and generally NB.
