    Did my Shielded Assault / Sellistrix / Rush of Agony combo finally get you? ;)

    Why does everyone use Rush of Agony now, my recaps are literally Lotus Fan > Light Attack > Spin to Win > Agony and I'm on the ground getting bagged.

    Because gap closers are the best way to deal with LOSers if you're melee and Rush only procs off teleports. 2H NBs can proc it with either Stampede or Lotus Fan, but DW NBs are stuck with the class skill.

    Alternating Crit Rush and Lotus Fan is the best way to keep up with those pesky Streakers. They will usually run out of magicka before you run out of both magicka and stamina. And RoA can help yard them back within range as well.

    Cleared my first Vet Maelstrom yesterday and this felt unfair - at the spiders' arena.
    The funny thing is that after 3 times fighting for long and dying right at the end of the Boss fight, last time the fight barely lasted 30 seconds when I accomplished it. It felt somewhat RNG on how the Boss wanted to destroy me or letting me win...

    It's not RNG, the boss gets more powerful at regular intervals and you need to clear the webs off the obelisks to bring her back down to normal power. I'm guessing you didn't do that if she spat on you for 40k damage.

    Guess I didn't understand how to manage it: on previous attempts I always got slowed down 'till I almost couldn't move, so I wasn't able to use the obelisks mechanic (which I used for the rounds before). Also, during the Boss fight I couldn't understand the reasoning behind which obelisks will light up and why: I could only move by roll dodging (because slowed down) but by the time I got to the luminescent obelisk it would turn off and lights up another one. Those damn spiders never gone away, even if I cleared the webs from the obelisks, which wasn't enough to enlighten them.
    When I succeded was because I took the Axe Sigil and burst down the Boss before it enraged or the spiders came out. Still don't understand that fight XD maybe if it was recorded I could figure it out - never seen it like that in video guides...

    Yeah, the slow comes from the small spider daedra, it should be killed as soon as it shows up. It's a good idea to manage the webs through all the rounds of that arena so there's just one webbed obelisk left for the bossfight, then you can quickly clear it when you need to. The guide on Alcasthq describes the mechs pretty well, the game itself doesn't really do a good job of showing what exactly is going on. And I think I'd better stop now, lest a mod gets mad at me for going off topic.

    There's a spider Daedra that spawns that applies progressively worse snare on you until you kill it.

    Drag the hoarders to de-web. Kill the webspinner and spider Daedra. And the boss won't one shot you.

    One of those Necrom world bosses got my level 13 arcanist last night. First non-PvP death in a while. I somehow got stuck in the red ring unable to dodge or break free or anything.

    At a keep resource in Ravenwatch. Yellows had the whole map. I had gone in to do the one daily quest for endeavors. I flipped resources around one keep before doing the quest. Started flipping resources at a second keep afterwards. One yellow appeared and I was surprisingly holding my own, but a second appeared and it was too much.

    The last time I died to a guard was when Summerset dropped, and I was stealing in Shimmerene and didn't know my way around, and accidentally ran off a cliff and died with guards chasing me. And I just happened to have a purple plan on me that was worth 650k at the time, and of course I lost it.

    However, I regularly die riding off that cliff in SW Grahtwood to get to that survey on the little island, as that is literally the fastest way to get there. Occasionally I can time it just right to where I land in the water and survive, but not usually.

    Ah well mmmm. Have you ever watched Monty Python's Holy Grail? You know that scene where the guards are standing there while someone is running towards them from a great distance and then after several jumpcuts he appears from off camera and catches them off guard and stabs them in the gut? Well it was sorta like that.

    I was out and about in Cyrodiil and spotted an enemy running toward me. Then suddenly I died and see a recap with a ton of attacks that couldn't possibly hit from that distance. Afterward I was given a nice replay of what happened by watching all of their animations play out several seconds later while my corpse just lay there in the grass. I decided it was time for a break from the game for a while after that lol

    PvP Battleground. Supporting my team in some heavy 4 v 4 melee, we manage to get the upper hand against skilled group of 4, spend the last of my resources to finish off the last tank, when 2 spamming beamplars from the other “absent” team hit me from behind.

    I honestly feel bad for beamplars. With Temp’s strong defense & heals, you can build extremely tanky, and RO’s 500% scaling will still get you kills if someone lets their health dip. But it is SUCH A PAINFULLY BORING PLAYING STYLE. Spam RO, Spam RO, Spam RO.

    Eesh. Bring back jabs and pol, already…

    I was a dam builder. Across a river deep and wide. Where steel and water did collide. A place called Boulder on the wild Colorado. I slipped and fell into the wet concrete below.

    They buried me in that great tomb that knows no sound. But I am still around. I'll always be around,
