is basically what PVP is in this game. Bats bats bats bats fire rings fire rings streak impulse bats bats bats. A group is capping a keep? No problem lets ball in 10 peeps all swarming+firerings+streak+impulse and lets clean the place pressing one button.

Wait...I have a better one: The Elder Batswarms with Firerings Online... that s more accurate

/endsarcasm

I wonder if this is ever going to be dealt with or is this the meta you guys want us to play? Should be all reroll sorcs and become vamps?

    People who actually spend time trying to work out synergies and timed attacks and planning follow ups only to be steam rolled by these Gimpulse monkeys are getting the shaft.

    We are not playing the same campaign, or the OP hasn't been around Cyrodiil lately. Yes, I've seen some groups doing this. The most notorious is the dominion skeleton group, but they're one-trick ponies.

    We beat them by not bunching up, circling them, and hitting from range. If we're on keep defense against one of these groups, we drop oil, volcanic runes, caltrops, and ultimates on them.

    They are beatable but not as common as the OP insists.

    "It is not the critic who counts: not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles or where the doer of deeds could have done better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly, who errs and comes up short again and again, because there is no effort without error or shortcoming, but who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions, who spends himself for a worthy cause; who, at the best, knows, in the end, the triumph of high achievement, and who, at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who knew neither victory nor defeat."

    the thing is they do their job if you're focused on a small group and they simply roll through and you die..they did their job..and they move on to the next enemy otherwise engaged in combat.

    The biggest problem with Bat Swarm is the brokenness of how quickly the Dress Wearing Stick wavers spamming Impulse and murdering people by the handfull gain Ultimate, allowing for what looks to be a continuous cast of Devouring Swarm.

    If the Devs just made it so Bat Swarm and it's morphs ignored all Ultimate Cost reduction stacking and Ultimate gain boosts and always cost default amount at a default rate of gain in PvP. You'd see significantly less people running around in a perpetual cloud of bats.

    Solve the Impluse spam-monky problem and you solves all the problems.

    If ESO treated vampires like Oblivion treated vampires (significant damage when exposed to sunlight), there would be far fewer of them running around.

    weakness to sunlight would be a terrible mechanic in this game.

    players cant control when it is night and day in the game, and if they were to go to PvP during the day with this mechanic....... not good:(
