La and ha nerfs

DormantOne

Dear zos. I'm on the low end of dps nerfing la and ha (in particular) destroys my dps. I came back to this game because of oakensoul but now my preferred rotations for a number of my character's will be nerfed.

One other point is I think fixed la and ha values feels very un rpg

Totally agree on the fact that fixed LA & HA dmg would be the most immersion breaking, un rpg thing to do.

Lets not name it "Weaving Changes" anymore because that's not what this is, weaving will stay exactly the same. The correct term should be LA&HA nerf.

Nerfing Light Attacks was the correct move. But having it fixed damage is a bad move.

Nerf all Light Attacks by 30%. Buff Master at Arms to give 50% when full and Empower to 50%, for players that want to focus LA.

it will still proc the enchantment and maelstrom will still work right?

It seems so contrary to the stated purpose. "We want to close the gap between high dps and low dps players, so we are just straight nerfing all damage!"

Now more than ever they need PVP skills and PVE skills or at least have them work differently in each. I use a lightning staff heavy attack build in PVE and have for years. It's been repeatedly nerfed over and over again to the point where I almost can't pass normal dungeons with acceptable damage.

ZOS constantly makes changes that they think will fix 1-part of the game and it ends up ruining the other. The game is getting less accessible for people with disabilities or people who can't or just don't want to LA weave and use skills constantly (continuous button mashing which many people can't do). Stop nerfing heavy attacks as those are the way many people can actually do enough damage in PVE to be successful in a lot of the game. These days I doubt you can do vet content and arenas with a heavy attack build and now they're basically making normal content difficult as well for all but the young and nimble.

If you want to improve your dps rotation you definitely need to take HA out form it even on live server.
There you go I just buffed your rotation. You won't even feel the oakensoul nerf now.

When you combine MMO and RPG there are some tradeoffs to be made.

If you want a true RPG then keep away from MMOs.

If everybody, who are here for some RPG elements, left ESO, ESO would end. Don't give advice, which you don't want people follow.
