Whoa hold on a minute, Dalai Lama actually chases after you? What sorcery is this? Every time I see him he just blinks and sits in mist form.

Maybe its the 20-30+ zerg that I've never seen you without that he's running from and not actually just you?

Funny you didn't include where I came back and killed you twice 1v1, guess I'll have to run video in cyro just to keep ya honest BTW nothing says "I don't want to fight you" more then literally just standing there blocking with shields up, I was in the middle of swapping out weapons didn't even have a second one equipped lol. I bolted away only to get sniped by two lethal arrows, poison injection and then your disintegration proc. That's why I went from full health plus full shields to dead in about 2 seconds haha. I know I'm going to get the whole there's no such thing as code in PvP blah blah and yea maybe I shouldn't have been swapping out weapons next to an enemy owned keep, just didn't think you'd pat yourself on the back so hard by putting it in your video haha. Its ok though no hard feelings, those other duels were good just wish you would have included the two other fights where I did kill you 1v1, but I can see why you wouldn't want to include that lol. See you out in Cyrodil!

sorry man dont know who you are, if you were one of the 7 people who killed me for those few hours i can only remember one where it was a dk that killed me and i didnt hit the save button sorry. all the other times i was zerged to death.

Impressive for a sorc in the current state of the game.

Fun to see a sorc vid and some fights against recognizable names. Build-wise I would advocate for Magnus over Seducer as I find the 5 piece bonus proc fires often enough on BE spam that it saves a lot of magicka - considering the growing cost of each subsequent BE cast.

yeah man, this is the best most well rounded build for a sorc right now that i have found. you have a chance to beat everyone even RS spamming Dk's.

First of all, it's a hype video. Why would he include any fight where he lost?

Second, don't take it personally. He's showing off his own skills, not challenging your epeen.

It's not like he called you out personally.

This is the typical block/caster build for a sorc. I run the same attack bar as you but with my ulti being bats. Basically the dmg dealing is anti Reflective Scales with your own magic dmg reflect/stun if you use defensive stance morph.
If you are looking for some good sets synergy's for this build try Blessing of the Potentates, Light of Cyrodiil and Martial Knowledge. Soft capped in magica, health, spell dmg and magica recovery with high health and stamina recovery. For mundus I use the Lady for added armour. Eye's of Mara aIso works with this build if you need to add impenetrable and or if you enchant your rings with with something other than magica recovery but still stay soft capped such as Glyph of Shielding or Glyph of Fire Resist or Glyph of Decrease Physical Harm.

Martial knowledge with 5 piece set bonus has the 10% extra damage if I remember right?
Don't do it's terrible. Unfortunately the set is broken/poorly designed so that when you trigger the extra damage it also applies to the next attack of anyone else who attacks your target. So if a scrub comes along with terrible DPS and light attacks, there goes your damage bonus it's just been wasted.

Martial Knowledge is for the double spell dmg from the 4 piece bonus, same for Eye's of Mara which swapps the spell dmg for recovery. You want the 5 piece bonus from Light of Cyrodill, so the two rings and three pieces of clothing.
While Casting or Channeling a spell, incoming damage is reduced by (25)%
The thing about this bonus is it stacks with other damage mitigation which includes the Sword and Board passive, Deflect Bolts, the Vampire passive Undeath plus the passive you get for just slotting Defensive Stance.

So Light of Cyrodiil only works with channeled spells like a non-procced Crystal Fragments. It won't work with fury, ward, streak, etc. Are you saying it's worth using frags non-procced because of the defense buff?

I think the music made the video.

Really great tracks.

After watching that video I gotta ask, how do you get latency in the 70s?!

i live in Texas and i think the servers are around here somewhere and yeah i was no where near a zerg, plus im not going to show the lag fest that ensues, i just doesnt make good television lol.

What's that add-on to show ping and fps btw?

Edit:
Nvm. Seeing that they actually altered the built-in fps option. Thanks anyways!

cozmon3c_ESO · December 2014

yeah for those of you who dont know i believe you just type in /fps and /latency into chat and they pop up for you.

Kolache · December 2014

It's the only ability that has been nerfed 4 times.

The reason they kept nerfing it is because they never managed to actually prevent people from using it more times consecutively than they wanted them to. Not even wanting to get into why they should or should want to limit that--they decided they wanted to, and they've never done it well.

Just like with vampires, since they have one balancing hand tied behind their backs due to not being able to use cooldown timers, they can only apply penalties that are sufficient for some people while totally mitigated/ignored by others.

Hopefully with the champ system/vet removal/stat rebalancing they'll get a better handle on drawing whatever lines they're trying to draw.

Nice vid

LunaRae · December 2014

Not a bad video, kind of feels hypocritical to boast "1vX" in your vid title then half-way through complain about dying to bow user from stealth... that's what 1vX is ??? Anyway nice work

cozmon3c_ESO · December 2014

Xv1 not 1vx

Hello nice video! What kind of armor are you wearing, full light? What about your stat point allocation?

Thanks, I'm wearing full light armor and stats vary so I'll give you what I shoot for with food, 2800 health, 2450 magicka, and 1600 stamina.

This is a nice video and the OP makes good use of the One-hand & Shield reflect ability.
