Vampires, Never Forget...

that we endured weeks of broken Bat swarm in Cyrodiil and mist form. It's only fair that silver shards stay the way it is for a lengthy duration.

Werewolves could use a CC break implemented between then also.

    On a serious note, I haven't tried pvp after the patch yet but hearing about vamps getting one shotted by a spammable low cost skills is quite disheartening.

    I'll jump onto PvP just because I'm compelled to, but if it gets to the point we're lvl 49s are killing me with it, I'll probably just stop till it gets fixed, and it does need a hotfix, one I'm hoping is being implemented now, but with ZOS so far, it's been nothing but disappointments.

    At least he doesn't think a gaming imbalance is a good thing. Excuse me while I get rid of vampirism so I can quit getting one shotted by people that without that one ability couldn't beat me with a 10 second head start.

    How do you know that? I mean if you are getting one shotted you have no idea of their skill level. They could be pros :smiley:

    All I see in that video is a V10 in probably legendary armour, hitting various pug groups either below VR level or at low VR levels whilst using a very effective build and probably lots of ultimate reducing armour sets. A perfectly valid build.

    You can tell it's not OP by how he bugs out when Pryda's organised group turns up and then kills him. Against smaller groups who don't roll out of talons it's easy to roll over them.

    This is also before they nerfed bash damage which probably helped a great deal.

    Bat swarm never was a problem by itself.
    Problem was in stacking this Ult, but this is fixed far ago.

    No where in that vid did Pryda's group kill him. He only died at the end when he received a 40k unknown damage source.

    You obviously didn't watch the video. Did you even see that DK jump into zergs and kill peeps then still survive?

    Have to admit that were I in to PvP in this MMO, I'd spend a great deal of time hunting and destroying vampires. I've never liked them, and their popularity in video games over the past decade disgusts me.

    Well, at least I now know forum dwellers are not petty and won't hold a grudge against players, and here I was afraid that the forums were a cesspit. Glad I was wrong. Once the next ability gets broken, let's be sure to say "hey, remember when "Y" was broken? that makes it all ok!"

    Umm.. you don't see stacking batswarms? Crazy mistform speed, spammable bats. DK spams. All that stuff is long-gone though. It's as much a DK thing as vamp too. The synergy there was ridiculous. You didn't see NB vamps doing that.

    Vamps are now easily spit-roasted. The oneshot stuff and oh yummy vamp tears blah blah... lame. Let's just get the bug fixed along with the slideslow in Cyrodiil and stop the jealousy.

    If anyone wants a free bite I'm sure I can organise enough for everyone.

    I did watch the video, was highly amusing as well.

    I did watch him jump into zergs and survive, but when you root people with talons and they decide to stand there instead of rolling out (excluding those dismounted) then you're always going to get extreme health regen. Combine that with most of the zergs being below VR level and you'll have plenty of opportunities to regen health and live forever like a vampire should.

    Besides that, as has been mentioned, the issue was ultimate stacking which has now been fixed.

    People should be able to play as vampires and make use of the benefits, same as others can use fire spells to counter. Having a broken skill that renders an entire facet of ES lore and the game unplayable is something that needs to be fixed, regardless of personal opinion on the matter.

    nice video you got there, memory seems to be a bit short it seems, might be a common symptom associated of vampirism... And now a few days of getting owned themselves and game is "destroyed". But being raid bosses for weeks was of coarse ok. The fun irony of this whole chain of events is priceless.
  • leovuoeb17_ESO
    Raash, I became a vamp last week. Can I get a free pass cause I don't have bats (only a couple of irritating moths following me around)? No? So I must suffer too? Ok... Q_Q

    No, but you have my condolences. Now with that sorted out, would you be so kind and turn around, I dont like to bolt someone in the back if I dont havto. You need to go back into the ground where you belong.
