    I can do one better. There were 3 of us, but I was the only person on a templar. I hit invade he hit blazing shield. I stopped attacking on the first blazing shield and just watched in astonishment as he speed spamed blazing shield for over 8 times with no one even hitting him. When he ran out of blazing shields, to waste on nothing, he headed directly toward the npcs. As far as I could tell there were no damagers on his bar save the blazing shield bug.

    Any build that keeps khajiit from engaging in their most honored skill of swift relocation to a superior tactical position.

    Though the one that involves letting your armor do the killing for you is perhaps second on their list. Maybe even as high as one and a half.

    Third would of course be anything involving repeated use of personal range AOEs. It is the one time that makes me wish I could murder my own allies, in addition to all the unpleaseant sorts surrounded by flying rodents.

    Past times: Refusing to go full magika spec, hitting things with a big hammer, sniping, and speaking in khajiit
    Also: Gelel the Derp Knight, Altsel the streaker, and Filafel the temp temp.

    I as a stamina suckbuild, killd a templar who i ambushed, he hit blazing shield, i backpadled a bit and spammed him with flying blade. he did nothing just spammed blazing shield.... was funny... no jabspamming BS, no charge+jabspamming bs, nothing what an OPlar could do....

    the one type of gameplay style that I absolutely despise in this game: is block and spam.

    it is the one play style that I will cry "nerf" for, because its just lame and pathetic.

    Players should NOT be able to block and attack/cast at the same time. I understand it would affect tanking if it were removed, but its making PvP a frustrating mess, and I and many others have almost had enough of it.

    I am getting tired of players with wooden sticks doing better in melee combat than my giant 2H great sword all because they can hold up block and spam crushing shock the whole time. either this game needs more block penetration, or block and cast needs to be removed or seriously nerfed.

    that is what I think, and im stickin with it.

    I agree blocking needs some kind of counter, maybe they should make all dots in the game apply through block like crippling grasp and unstable flame do. If they did this then dot builds may be able to counter endless blocking.

    I thought all DoTs already fully penetrated blocking...... are you..... wow..... that was one of the main reasons I used them....

    but yeah, I hate block and spam. im not raging because someone killed me. im raging because I believe it negatively impacts the game, and it does.

    hopefully something is done.

    Only dots I'm aware that apply while someone blocking are crippling grasp, unstable flame, and twin sisters. Dots such as Blood craze (DW) and reflective light (templar) are not applied if the main ability is blocked. Velocious curse also negates block.

    I think for me it's the Siphonblade and Streaksorc.

    Though I think the sorc takes more skill to play properly.

    I suppose it does to an extent.

    cant say from personal experience though, can only speculate. I have yet(nor do I intend) to play either of those builds

    Dude you totally forgot shield stack + block while you do all of the above.

    And then the part where you look at your friends list and see huge patches of people all unsubbed.

    All of this is literally against one enemy. This is stacked block bleed damage. This has to be a bug.

    You doing 1 of 2 things to get that damage log

    1. You are using rapid strikes or its other morph
    2. You are using crushing shock or piercing jabs

    If you are using 1 take it off your bar right now as its a death sentence because it's bugged, if you are doing 2, stop bloody spamming it on someone with twin sisters

    I have pact v14 bow with (I think) 114 unresistable damage. It procced and hit Tisserand for 3 damage. So that unresistable theory is either bugged or bs.

    Some abilities are bugged, Twin Slashes for example is bugged and will get you killed for example if you apply the bleed to Thunderous Plate Armor (the bleed sets off the proc every time) If you're double hitting with something..i'm going to guess that you'll eat 2 hits everytime from Twin Sisters followed by the occasional tic for 3 times
