Pixysticks✭✭✭✭✭having dealt with and modified thousands of daoc script lines, i can forgive such a coding error assuming it wasnt obvious.
some of the best coders work really quickly, and should have a skilled editor to ensure it all works in smoothly.
But in all seriousness, you can't hire skids and coders to do a professional job meant for a programmer and developer.Alacrity

Lowbei✭✭✭✭✭its true! i dont consider myself to be "good" but still try to work quickly, and i have to go back over it all and find dozens of mistakes, as im not a pro, im probably really bad compared to zos' coders.
pros fly thru it and their time is more valuable than to waste proofreading their code. so you have an editor.

✭✭✭✭✭Player ranks and Levels and whatever have very little With how good they are in cyrodiil. Its basicly up to the person behind the keyboard. Sometimes I can take out 5 People at once (im a sorc) and sometimes I can struggle With just 1. Sure it helps being v12 etc, but thats just the potential. If you cant fulfill that potential, it doesnt matter. The best thing you can take from loosing, is Learning how to not let that happen again:)
Yup.
I tend to do better with my VR12 Templar than my VR12 Dragonknight. Arguably on paper the DK is stronger in general, but, a lot of it seems to be about the gear (knowing which traits and enchants to select, how they work with your tactics, etc) and especially how your play style fits with the class options.JackDaniell wrote: »Any class can win a 1v7, even against people that are not new to ESO. The skill ceiling in this game is very high, and a well built PvP build is more than capable of killing multiple opponents. All classes are good, when built and played well..
Also when regarding PvP it is very easy to have a bad build. I don't say this because I think people are bad at making builds, I say this because making a build in ESO is not strait forward and unnecessarily complicated. Tooltips are very unclear, their is little to no explanation of what all the stats do, and many aspects of the game are not general knowledge. It takes a good amount of time to find out the many secretes that are hidden in ESO build crafting and most people who play in PvP do not know them...
Allot of planning goes into builds and the players behind them that do these things. The reason that they win these fights is not because their class is OP, it's in fact because the player themselves are OP. You unfortunately came by one of these players, and he did what he is built and prepared to do.
A few facts to reflect on:
- Veteran levels make very little difference in PvP. Vet 1 is nearly equal to Vet 12.
- Making your gear legendary does not make it much better, in fact it's almost wasteful. Your best off sticking to blues or purples and having multiple sets of gear to learn and play with.
- Playing allot of ESO will not make you good at the game if you don't understand the theory behind it.
Yup.
Unless you have a good written guide, a friend to tutor you, or you just happen to learn well by repeated experimentation and failure, it's going to stay really hard. You get to know the master-class players really well on your campaign after a few weeks. I can beat them sometimes in a large group vs group scrum (not a zergfest), but in a small skirmish or one-on-one I still am going to lose most of the time.
I do agree it's often the better players that make some abilities seem "OP".Edited by tinythinker on August 12, 2014 8:58PM❤Experienced, new, returner?❤ Help keep ESO's community strong ᕙ༼ຈل͜ຈ༽ᕗ -- share what you love about the game, offer constructive feedback, and make friends.ʕ·ᴥ·ʔ

All ZOS needs is to hire 1 person that can prioritize EVERYTHING they need to do in the proper order, then communicate said list with the community. This person needs to be responsible for keeping the programmers on task, and updating the community with their progress at least once a week.
I can assure you that this persons salary will be a fraction of the amount of money you will have saved in subscription fees.

No, but standing in a clump vs a sorc is about the least intelligent thing you can do.
no one did that. i didnt do that.
heres the facts. sorcerers and dragonights deal way too much damage that nightblades and templars cant handle and cant compete with.
plain and simple
If you just stand there and take a beating from them yes you will not be able to handle it. It's your tactics not their damage output.:trollin:0 -
zScars✭✭✭ZOS quite possibly has the worst forum moderation and programmers ever to grace this industry.
just frustrating because its such a good game, i wish the people in charge of hiring staff knew what they were doing.
