what neglected class skills do you miss that ZOS just ignores?

it frustrates me that ZOS only seems to mess with skills in broad sweeping changes once a year, and if something is ignored, useless, under powered, or never used, well oh well then.

sure would love individual skill updates and tweaks every week on a skill or two to create relevance or fix problems.


and so i ask you, dear viewer, what class skill do you like or miss that are just bad or not worth using?


for me, i love DK and its animations, and at the top of my list would be:

-reflective scales, the DK wings, the "flapy wings" once a staple and iconic DK skill that helped define a class, now a skill never seen, overpriced, under duration, it is relegated to the memories of times long past.

-inhale, deep breath, an amazing animation that had its last hurrah in a magicka tank meta back when desert rose was amazing and major defile was not crippling, now it takes to long, provides a meager heal, and terrible damage, at once again to high a price. shame too, it looked really cool.

    I haven't used inhale/deep breath in years. I look at and wonder sometimes if I could use it in some sort of trick build. But it might as well not be there, sadly.

    I'd also like for there to be morphs for class synergies to be usable by the caster. If not all, then some of them.

    To be honest I have not used a NB class spell (outside of cloak) for so long I have forgotten what they have.

    My nightblade for the past year has been a mule for alchemy/provisioning/enchanting materials. Sometimes I go out and do surveys with them. They can craft runes/potions/food though. :/

    Ah where to start with this one?
    Dk wings for sure, empowering chains (well I dont miss anything about it but I just want it to be something that is not a gap closer that gives you major expedition and gets cancelled by your target standing on a rock or absorbed by BoL...)
    Sun Shield comes to mind aswell.
    Nightblade heal ult morph having a cast time.
    Burning Embers being cheap.
    Being able to use power lash twice every fossilize instead of current offbalance cooldown.
    Politeness is respecting others.
    Courage is doing what is fair.
    Modesty is speaking of oneself without vanity.
    Self control is keeping calm even when anger rises.
    Sincerity is expressing oneself without concealing ones thoughts.
    Honor is keeping ones word.

    STAMINA SORCERER, why am i the only one mentioning stamsorc?... The 4 skills we have is okay, no change needed. We just need more actual skills 🤦‍♂️ I would like to see a stam spammable atleast, and a rework in passives that now are totally magsorc biased.

    Before anyone says stamsorc is fine, take a look at the other classes and their strenghts:

    Examples:
    DK Dots, tankiness, heals strongest ulti in the game
    NB Sustain, burst, crit, mitigation
    Templar Heals, Burst, strongest spammable in the game, purge
    Magsorc Burst, heals, shields, mobility, Pets... gl hitting a 4/5 pet magsorc, ranged execute.
    Warden Best allround
    Necro Best allround + more
    And
    Stamsorc Sustain, speed/mobility..

    This is from a PvP perspective, give stamsorc some of the 95% of our class kit that you gave to magsorc...

    I miss the old Malefic Wreath.

    And I wish Refreshing Path would still do some damage.

    Empowering chains. I wish ZOS remade them into more powerful gap closer and usable both by stamDK and magDK.

    Blazing shield for templar. I mean; I cant say they need anything, but damn!

    Its weird to hear people say nightblades suck when in pve they might have the most guranteed and modifiable damage in trials.

    Sure other classes can parse close to or better than a magblade but it often doesnt translate well in the field.

    I'd say the templar skill radiant aura. Its just bad.
