Cyrodill performance is totally unacceptable. I can't generally start playing it until late at night.
The tanky proc meta is totally unenjoyable and to anyone who wants to play using skills, who has to stack offensive stats to be effective they put themselves at a great disadvantage by doing so. You can't compete consistently in BG's without a proc build. It also makes cyrodill unenjoyable on the occasions it does work.
Why should you be able to stack 30 - 40k health and be rewarded with a stronger heal and a greater, more reliable offence.
About a year a go I was having a great time in this game. The meta was tanky, but it was much better than this. The thing is it wouldn't be very tanky if procs sets weren't the current meta. I think balance would be pretty good without them. We haven't even had the chance to see the impact of the buff changes as we have been playing a meta that is unreliant on stats.
Things I think need to happen in the next patch preferably before. All these have been said many times, but I am just consolidating them.
- Heals no longer stack on themselves. This will kill ball groups imo and stop people spamming skills like rapid regen in an attempt to apply 3-6 layers on each member of their group. I can't see this effecting anyone else significantly tbh.
- Purge can only be individually used every 8-10 secs. Again this greatly effects ballgroups, whilst also making a more healthy use of purge. I don't believe you should be able to remove all damage every GCD anyway. This will be totally justifiable with the adjustment to proc sets.
- Proc sets scale with offensive stats. Meaning you need to put your attributes into stamina/magicka and couldn't stack 2-3 proc sets. You would need to couple a proc set with a set like new moon for it to be as effective as it is now. Some proc sets individually probably need looking at, but for now that would do.
- The new arena weapons need looking at if not effected by the above point.
- malacath no longer buffs damage that normally wouldn't crit. Proc sets again...
Feel free to add your thoughts here, but be aware they are just my opinions.
