Noooo what have you done!? Now ZOS will nerf our trash NPC farming set!

those npc dudes need to dodge roll, block or evade. They should be fine

I have it slotted on my PVE DK toon as well. It can cause problems for a tank who's trying to group the NPC's around their location and then your 'Dark Convergence" pulls the NPC's away... lol. So Ima just drop it on the tank as soon as they position themselves. Combine that with the groups AOE and the NPC's melt

i generally drop on the tank also, its going to get nerfed for sure, set is way to strong in PVE let alone PVP lol

Since it's going to get nerfed soon anyway, My Warden uses it. With Mirri in tow, I've been clearing out some of the earlier group dungeons and most of the public delves.

Any PVE farming build recommendations?
What other sets/monster can I pair this up with??

Been going to Crag solo for some Delves that gave me trouble solo. The solo Bosses still give me trouble, but I took it out on the trash minions Muhahahaaa, then i died...

Nice screen shot but what it doesn't show is the long wait for the proc to be back up. I've tried it. It's gives you a nice first hit but then pretty sub par dps. That sort of effect would be very handy on a tank though. Just pulls all the mobs in for the dps to burn down.

It is situational but it does so much damage on a mob pull and so much stacking that even when soloing the survivors if any go down to the polar wind/shalk/magicka det/titanic cleave that all hit at the same moment if you time it right.

If you are in a planned group then you can just switch between it for pure trash pulls and something else for boss fights, for a lot of solo content it's just crazy. Just take it for a stroll round skyreach (especially the nedic chest).

Tbh. I will laugh super hard when eventually we will see a sledge nuclear nerf hammer happened to DC & Hrothgar and dev comment will basically be: We nerfed it because of PvE...

Dark Convergence is on the upper end of the power ratings for PvE but not broken. In PvP the set becomes a problem when whole groups run it together. Then it's effects become overpowering because you can break through 1 or 2 Dark Convergences, but when you're hit with 5 or 6 of them at once.... <--- That's the problem. Unfortunately we've seen the ESO devs take a good skill that needs only a little tweaking to fix, and nerf it into uselessness for everyone. Hopefully that won't happen with Dark Convergence but just in case, my Wardens are using it to clear out group dungeons for as long as the Dark Convergence lasts in it's current form..

200K DPS on trash groups without much effort is way overpowered.

Red_Feather

I use it on my healer guy when I'm doing solo overland stuff. It is fun to try and gather up many of the mobs and take em out. I like to cast the shooting star ultimate too after the mobs are gathered together.

I know it will all get changed and no longer be useful, but at least it is fun right now and I like to play with fun things.

For my magicka funplar this is a great set 😁 Throw shards, unstavle wall, barage/ orb and then few jabs… Over 200K DPS is standard number for public dungeons and normal dungeons when doing solo 😂😂😂

I dig it, currently on my stam sorc DD lol, it’s just fun, I forgot how much I missed silly fun

Totally does not need a nerf in PVE maybe a small nerf in PVP. I would just raise CD and leave rest untouched. Or alternatively only have it activate on ground effects that are ultimates. This would reduce its uptime alone.

It’s already been nerfed considerably since this topic was opened. The Dark Convergance you use today bears only slight resemblance to what is was like in September. That’s the risk of bumping old threads.

Not only nerfed but bugged as well, at least the scaling element doesn't appear to be working properly. Even with that it's still really good used properly in PvE and you can still do upwards of 150K dps on trash packs with the right skill/gear combos.
