    I assume you mean in PVE, in which case who cares if players have good sustain. I don't think the AI monsters care.

    In PVP sustain isn't so great except for warden and necro (surprise surprise).
    They're probably comparing it to a prismatic recovery enchant.

    Do many people actually use or recommend those?

    Not really because it's not valuable enough to run over other options.

    Either way, a slotable CP should be worth more than a glyph.

    and the builds that don't have easy sustain just have to struggle even bloody harder due to this pointless nerf.

    I greatly agree with this. The nerf is uncalled for, especially when previous nerfs also reduced the cost of the stars they affected. This change makes the same amount of points worth less when previous similar nerfs also reduced star cost. 90 regen isn't worth 50 CP. I'm at a point that the new CP system made me go from thinking "wow I'm excited to have new goals" to "what's the point of working hard if that hard work keeps being worth less and less".

    I'll just never understand why zos doesn't want us to sustain. The amount of sustain nerfs over the years with this game is mind boggling. CONSTANTLY HEAVY ATTACKING FOR RESOURCES IS NOT FUN.

    Agree 100 percent with this. It gets old.

    TBF not that long ago they proposed adding resource restore to light attacks (with slightly reduced damage) and buffing heavy attack damage. PVE DDs lost their minds at the idea of adding heavies into their rotations.

    Idiotic nerf. My Magblade struggles already with sustain in 4 men content.

    It's OK if you have a healer, tank with the right sets but you don't have that in pug groups. I am already dry way too fast. Will only get worse.

    ZoS killing of the fun as always..

    "Mind boggling" is a good description for the balancing changes this game has been seeing for a long time now. Senseless change after senseless change, sucking the life out of everything.

    If sustain gets gutted over time, back to the Heavyattack meta then ppl will just start to switch to bretons for their sustain, since loosing some Dmg via Racepassives is still less punishing then starting to Heavyattack for sustain.

    This Change is definetly unnecessary and punishes playstyles which are already struggeling to sustain...akaMagDk aka the Buff B****....relegating those classes and playstyles even more into support then they are now.

    As a Breton Frostden I am in a sweet spot, because Breton compensate entirely my sustain even with more expensive frost skills and cp nerfed I sit around 50% magica and my Blue Betty doesn't even slotted)

    Make it passive.
    This is the solution.

    Remember, this is a system they've been working on for two years, and came out just a few months ago, so of course they need to nerf it already :D Seriously though, after the nonsensical pen nerf, I'm not even bothering anymore to find rhyme and reason within their decisions.

    Your CP craps are enough, you move the cap to 3600 and in a meantime you put everything in place to be optimal at cp 1200 ... that's a joke ???

    No you did this, and now you continue over and over to Nerf things .... And the worst things is that some players defends this ...

    I don't really understand where the fun of being Nerf, and change the meta to make us change our stuffs over and over ...

    And in a meantime, what did you add in the game for us to have fun ? ... New trial ... New pledge, hum not really you do the same things by mixing mechanics from previous encounter.

    You level the class by the low and everyone seam happy .. I'm more than disappointed, you make nothing except convince old players to leave the place ...

    So yeah, continue like that, you are in the right way for the end of your game.


    You promise us some new server in january, still waiting in end of July ..

    No. Return all passives utility to their prenerf stage, but keep current CP requirements. Buff slottables by 20-30 % or add at least 1 more slote
