2 skills are destroying Cyrodiil

PlagueMonk · August 2014

All the blob groups do is run in, spam Bat Swarm, SoM and then the DKs spam talons, locking us into the AoEs. (sorry but talons is STILL perma locking me down no matter what I do so please stop with the, "just roll out of it" BS)

Every time this happens most of my death spam is , you guessed it, those above 3 skills and me with a nearly full stamina bar.

Now I'm not saying I am never able to roll out or break the CC but those who know how to exploit the tactic are very good a it.

Only read part of the thread, but pulsar isn't really as bad as people make it out to be. With a little coordination, it can actually be out-healed to a large extend. If just a few are staking abilities like purifying ritual, healing springs and rapid regeneration those HoTs really add up.

Problem is though that any pug group can easily group up and spam pulsar where it takes more coordination to turtle up and outheal the incoming damage while some are DPSing at the same time.

The one skill that really disrupts Cyrodiil is batswarm - hands down. I'd really like to see them tweak it a little, but with baby steps so that a sensible implementation can be reached. For instance, I think just by reducing its radius, we would see great results.

AoEs are what help a small coordinated group beat a bigger disorganised one. You think without AoEs you'd survive 5v20?

"Wait.
Stand on me.
Swarms now. Spam AoE button 1 or 2.
See? We wiped them."

There's your skilled coordinated gameplay. For 5 year old kids.
Such a shame ZOS is allowing this to happen in their game.

* The VoB morph of Consuming Darkness is very good for PvE but not so for PvP. The other morph could benefit from a lower damage reduction (NBs are mostly DPS, not tanks!) in exchange for a CC+Dmg synergy like Shackle or SuperNova.

Bad for pvp you say? How dare you tell me how to play my nightblade.

Chill out bro. I didn't say bad, I said not so good and I was referring to the lack of a decent synergy. If you feel the Invisibility synergy is as good in PvP as Shackle or SuperNova, well suit yourself. I don't though...
