This skill is annoying the living daylight out of me! Being spammed jabs for 2 bloody minutes while not being able to streak or run away while the enemy is wearing Snow Treader should NOT be encouraged by you at ZOS! Either implement the cooldown for it in PvP on it or remove the snare! This skill is infuriating!

    The snare is applied to the caster as well so, no, no cool down necessary.

    I use streak to get away which is its intention. It's impossible to actually streak away to safe distance when you're being snared and the other person is using Snow Treader.

    The snare traps you right there WITH the caster, so yes, cooldown is necessary.

    Use snare immunity. Easy life. Or alternatively be a stamsorc with steed mundus and elude and you will never again get burning light proccing on you.
    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.

    The snare is so that the ability which as it’s a channeled one, is designed to slow you down so jabs/sweeps can do what is intended. Just like how streak is designed so you can get away as you stated in the post above mine. So again, no cooldown necessary.

    Does Snow Treader make me immune to Jabs snare?

    Is it meant to be used 2 minutes straight??

    Every snare immunity makes you immunte to jabs snare...............
    Why am I not surprised that someone that complains about jabs snare doesnt know snare immunity is a thing..........

    Do you think you should always get away?

    No jabs doesnt snare the caster [snip].
    But I agree the jabs don't need a cd since it's underwhelming vs competent players.

    Let me get this straight:

    - You play Sorc
    - You have streak slotted

    uhhm.. press streak 3 times and you are gone. What exactly is the problem now?

    The solution I found against this jab spammers is to stun them, when They put purifying light on u they will start their spam so u just stun them and they wont do anything to u, now killing them with a stamdk its pretty hard since they purge all ur dots

    If they're using snow treaders I thought they couldn't sprint?

    Man, if only there were some sort of morph of streak that removed snares...(there is) It seems that the answer to the issue is clear, if you dont like being snared, run snare removal. I consider snare removal to be 100% mandatory on every pvp build.

    Your request to remove the snare from jabs is invalid. Consider our advice; and kindly, learn to play =).

    TLDR😴

    Sorcerer wants to always be able to escape and never be killed....😮

    PVP isn’t meant to be fun, it’s meant to get you really angry like soap operas, let’s face it... it’s never gonna be balanced anyway so why worry 🥴

    The biggest mistake you did was making complain forum about worst stamina pvp class while playing the most mobile one.

    On a serious note, I highly doubt he was using snow treaders, immov potions more likely.

    I'm still confused about the cannot streak while being jabbed part. What?

    Anyways, I hope you're not discouraged by our responses. Just know that ESO has a diverse range of abilities and playstyles, there is counterplay in place for most of the annoying things you'll come across. When you die to something like jabs, take the opportunity to discover why you died and adapt.

    Personally, when I come across a jabs spammer I make sure to keep high uptime on my snare removal, and constantly pass through the player rather than kiting away from them. Since jabs is a frontal cone, the templar cant hit you if you keep taking their back side. The same logic can be used to counter wardens by flanking them to avoid subterranean assaults. Hope that helps, good luck with your sorc!

    I hope so. It would be pretty funny that a stamplar could power walk faster than him streaking and sprinting.

    If you are having problems avoiding jabs spam when your opponent is incapable of sprinting, that's a serious learn to play issue.

    You just kidding, right?

    Nerf it more after around 10 nerfs allready?! Not jabs are the problem... Templar skills need a rework and a buff since months and you scream again for nerf...

    I honestly wish jabs would get a buff to be whitelisted off of major evasion. But I am biased :smile:

    If you are having problems avoiding jabs spam when your opponent is incapable of sprinting, that's a serious learn to play issue.

    Or when you have Streak available, which teleports you the same distance no matter if you're snared or not...
