R.I.P. Bloodspawn....you will be missed

UrbanMonk

As Usual ZoS did not fail to overdo the nerf of a set and sending it to oblivion.

Bloodspawn:
Reduced the armor granted from this set to 3300, down from 6450.
Reduced the Ultimate on proc to 8, down from 14.
Reduced the duration and cooldown to 5 seconds, down from 6 seconds.

I don't mind reducing the Ultimate generation, but armor rduction is way too much for the classes specially mag which rely on this set to give them some form of defense.

@ZOS_GinaBruno @ZOS_BrianWheeler - If the armor granted is somewhere in reach for 4500-5000, then this set will still be good enough to be usable, as compared to current 3300 considering it's still as chance based set which cant not be controlled on demand. it might proc when you don't need it and not proc when you need it most.

Is there any good monster set left?

Madhatten512

They get worse and worse every patch I swear they can't actually play the game.

HappyTheCamper

Once again I’m not even sure I’m mad about the nerf itself, but wow what a dumb excuse given in the explanation.

“This is one of the oldest monster sets in the game and...” then why the hell didn’t you do these nerfs years ago!?

Veinblood1965

Do we ever see an increase on established set?

TequilaFire

Ashen Grip. lol

UrbanMonk

and to add Salt on the injury...this

Mighty Chudan: Reduced the 1 piece bonus to 1487 armor, down from 2975.
Lord Warden:
Reduced the armor bonus of the 1 piece set to 1487, down from 2975.

the stam dps sets lol

SpLaTTyDaDDy

Lmao Selenes got buffed
Happy to see this though

Nerien'eth:
Increased the damage of this set to 9393, up from 8890.
Increased the proc chance to 15%, up from 10%.
The 1 piece bonus now grants 129 Spell Damage, rather than Max Health


Wish it would proc the damage quicker. Things use to run out of it lol.

For Pvp only zaan everything else is *** gg zos decided ti destroy this game...

MaxJrFTW

It was overpowered. Still a strong set, will keep using.

GetAgrippa

I know a lot of people on a lot of classes use Bloodspawn in PVP, but I feel like this hits my magdk really, really hard.

wasn't OP. it was the only viable defensive set which it isn't anymore but again, its the only option again.

Canned_Apples

Velidreth is still good.
Only damage set that doesn’t have an obvious process delay.

OrderoftheDarkness

I told you it would happen, even though I didn't want it to. My theme was created as an introduction, something like this - everyone should create one topic about nerf. To tell the truth, I didn't want to nerf this set, it was just a joke, but it happened.
In General, I understand the logic of these interconnected nerfs at this stage.
P. S. This is called a tough fight vs meta tanky.

Tarrocan

wow so many sets useless next patch, really impressive.

UrbanMonk

i knew as well that it was coming.One of the very few good items left in game for ZoS to nerf.

honestly, this needed to happen. like back in september 2019, like i once pointed out here- https://forums.elderscrollsonline.com/en/discussion/comment/6360964/#Comment_6360964. it made no sense to have double a set bonus for resists on a monster one piece.

It still a strong set, and yes it was overpowered. Why do you think everyone was using it?

TimeDazzler

Why wear monster sets in PvP next patch.

5 body
5 jewelry/helmet/shoulder
2 weapon sets

Not a single monster set seems appealing in PvP besides balorgh.

do the math on balorgh its ***

ku5h

As per usual.
Nerf staple sets that everyone likes.
Introduce new OP Mythic's locked behind pay wall.

Isn't it funny how all of the sudden most monster sets became much less appealing, while updating those 1 pcs.
Like they're telling you: "Now unslot that moster set we just nerfed to the ground and slot that Mythic we forced you to pay for".

because, pirate was nerfed before this which it deserved, and only other defensive option was blood spawn or 1+1 pirate/ chudan (which again is the 2nd in line in this patch also after the nerf).

Sleep724

Stam DKs will need to move 3 piece potentates now.

Kesstryl

What will PVE Tanks use now? All the tanky monster sets are nerfed for PVP. So sick of not having PVE separate from PVP

Vaoh

I was thinking about upgrading Grundwolf to gold for PvE today and saw they nerfed that too. Dodged a bullet there

Also sad to see many sets will become useless.

It makes it hard to upgrade stuff because next patch your new set has a chance of getting huge nerfs even when it’s not OP.

Suligost

I dont like general nerf of all monster sets... dumb as hell, I kinda lost a bit of interest in Greymoor (one piece Myth are kinda ok ok, but I prefer monster sets), the only think I like is 60% less healing and thats it, rest is crap.

tremorscale or Shadowrend. both look great in the next patch.

UrbanMonk

i held on as well working on any setup, and i'm so glad I did.

TequilaFire

Maybe I am just depressed from being locked in my house and seeing my friends without work, but I think after six years I have finally had it with this game.
IDK, gonna take a break and definitly not purchasing Greymoor.
