Another Massive Magblade Nerf

At this point it's hilarious. These heavy attack nerfs will obliterate magblade's whose major attack is a fire staff heavy from stealth canceled into spammable of choice.
It basically renders ranged magblade completely and utterly untenable.
Melee magblade sucks compared to stamblade because most of the squishiest players (the only ones a magblade could conceivably kill) are other magic users who have both high spell resists and 5-7% magic resistance from light armor passives.
In addition to this the concealed weapon speed nerf means we'll lose 10% speed because a lot of ranged magbaldes slotted it purely for sneak speed.
So, in conclusion, magblades now do less damage, are slower, and will die quicker... Whilst stamblade's execute was buffed.
Much lols Zenimax.

✭It's already like that now.
The animations are much slower than previous years.

Fhritz✭✭✭✭✭Concealed Weapon got a great buff, minor exp + 300 W/S damage is even better than live SA, plus for the HA change is a nerf for everyone so I guess it's not that bad, also not everyone was playing vamp with magblade thus making the sneak speed boost irrelevant. When you take a look globally both Stamblade and magblade got buffed compared to any other classesI'm a single character man.
Stamblade. Khajiit. Mostly pvp.
And...that's it.2 -

Most magblades are ranged like Sorcs. Concealed weapon is generally only slotted for the speed boost on the back bar for escaping. It lost 10% speed.
It's like them buffing twighlight tormented (the morph no sorc uses) and saying sorc got buffed.
even if you slotted got the 300 W/S damage it in no way makes up for the the BIGGEST nerf this patch to magblades: their staple, fire staff heavies which can hit 14k+ are now gonna hit for 4K max.
