They dont do anything except melee and walk way slower then you can sprint. If I can kill them on my nightblade you sorcerors should have no problem. Obviously dont try to melee them unless your a tank, just kite them and then come back and tell me they are hard. If you think they are hard wait till you have to fight a veteran storm atronach.
Please dont nerf gargoyles, you can come here and ask for help, but dont try to ruin it for anyone who likes the challenge.
This is good to know. I feel the same way most of the people in this thread feel about gargoyles. I have one quest in Southern Bangkorai that I just flat couldn't complete because I couldn't survive against a gargoyle. Damn that Lady Larissa. But I do have a bow, so I'll give that a try and see if it works.---

✭✭- standard: uninterruptible "lift" spell immediately followed by orbs (when she's standing near wall, they spawn like 2 cm from her and there is NO WAY you can destroy them fast enough, as you are still just falling back to the ground, still stunned)
Interruptable.
RMB+LMB like you're interrupting. Breaks the stun.0 -

✭✭Pff, Gargoyle AoE attacks can at least be avoided.. tell me how to deal with Harvesters, after 1.1.2 broke their mechanics!

while harvesters really are a *** to kill, you can actually escape from the lift animation if you have enough stamina to utilize the cc breaker; will still spawn the orbs but you are free to move and attack again.
I routinely use the ultimates to kill em fast (drop a standard and the orbs don't have a chance
)

Junipus✭✭✭✭✭I remember them being absolute pains to kill solo as a templar, however they are doable.
Solar flare is useful along with aedric spear and silver bolts. IIRC gargoyles are classed as undead and get stunned by bolts. Just keep them down and hit with your weapon until dead.
That only works on single gargoyles though. More than one and you better have backup waiting or kiss those HP bye bye.The Legendary Nothing0 -
Im done. This little dual-wielding dark elf nightblade with vampirism CANNOT do this. I even bought myself a fire rune ability just to see if that helped. Nope. Done.0 -
Martinus72✭✭✭✭You cannot be serious if you're playing sorcerer, with your twilight and clannfear and atronach you can put up? Or to make it even easier to switch to resto staff and healing your team of pets, I've soloed gargoyle world boss vet8 with ease, for normal elite ones I don't even switch to resto staff nor using pets so give me a break...
Please stop demanding to dumb this game down for it's been nerfed to the ground already.Edited by Martinus72 on October 14, 2014 2:24PM0 -

That's just dumb if you could break out of it easily but yeah, keep asking for nerfs, soon we will have another 0 effort MMO...

push out more dps man, just stay out of their red rings, if you have ~ 2.2k health you should be fine to take them on with a standard sorc crushing shock build... especially with critical surge.0 -
purple-magicb16_ESO✭✭✭✭✭Agree. I've had more trouble wih these guys than Manimarco or Molag Bal. And these guys are just minions/trash mobs. Shd be able to use them for grinding. Shouldn't have to team up for these guys either b/c they also appear in solo content quests. Solo means solo. I feel your pain dude.Edited by purple-magicb16_ESO on October 15, 2014 2:23PMI don't comment here often but when I do, I get [snip]0 -
Rumba1✭✭✭OP,
I have the standard Sorc build and seriously have little trouble with Gargoyles.
1) send in your clanfear & twilight
2) hang back, if you've got enough magicka, send in some fire either by staff or fire reach.
3) when the Gargoyle kills your pets, and he will, just recast them. if he gets too close while you're recasting use Bolt Escape.
4) wait for your pets to take him down so you can finish him off with crushing shock or skill of your choice.
The main trick is to let your clanfear do the heavy tanking. Yes, you have to be aware of the fighting area geometry, no first-person fighting! Don't get trapped.
It takes time, but you will win.1 -
