The amount of threads on this issue still isn't as overboard as this skill.

Hi folks,

As promised, we have an update on Radiant Destruction. We've confirmed that there is not a damage-stacking bug with the ability, but there is a bug that is allowing Radiant Destruction to deal full execute damage on a target much earlier than is intended. We're testing a fix now, and hope to have it in the next incremental patch.

So it's like bats and lethal arrow were? What's the problem. Templars are the flavor of the week now.
Learned to play... Then everything changed... Now I must learn to play a again....

ZoS please nerf every ability that has ever killed me before, its unfair and OP.

Sallington · March 2015

In my experience, it's working just like an execute should. I've seen people get healed through the full cast at <30% HP, and it's basically useless if you're above 50% HP.

But, if you're around 35% hp or below and don't do anything to defend against it.... Yes. The execute will execute you.

Dear ZOS,

Last night in PVP on Thorn a light attack from player DW at Nikel did 5063 damage. It did to me more damage to me than Radiant Destruction also from player DW at 3880 (and bats from another player 3159). He was on top of the outpost and I was on the ground near the front poarch area. Please nerf light attack and while you are at it heavy attacks and anything else that hits me or that I am too stupid, slow,or lagged out to move away from or defend against or learn to block and mitigate. It's just not fair! That aside, the 7500 plus damage from wrecking blow was probably just cause I was looking up too much, ya think? Surprised I wasnt crit charged too.

Light attack is OP.
Radiant destruction, OP
Wrecking blow, Just Right, whew
ESO nerf, priceless

Why do you say that about light armor? Anyone who wants to play a magicka-based damage dealer needs to wear LA to be effective. Most of us will be shield stacking and/or wearing a couple pieces of heavy or medium to assist with armor issues.. but we shouldn't just be smears on the dirt because we need LA. :-P

think he meant 7 piece LA which seems to be asking to get just obliterated by any source of damage when the user has little to no CS points. I imagine as people get much higher in the system with damage reduction passives that it might change, but right now 7 piece LA is quite squishy. Glass cannon one might say.

WebBull · March 2015

Nerf the players that support clearly OP's skills.

You must be on crack - Skill is more powerful than soul assault. Wth are you saying no for?

Epic fail like the rest of the patch.

Roechacca · March 2015

Their working on the execute damage bug . No Hotfix for joo tho ... Next patch

ShadoPanauin · March 2015

100% should be nerfed. I don't care what templars say, you should never be able to do 25k non-interruptable damage.

The skill is also bugged; the skill works on players with 50% hp and below.

It may work well, but it is also stronger than any other execute in the game by a mile.

MormondPayne_EP · March 2015

Seriously, anyone complaining about this must be awful. I am a sorc in full light armour and have been hit with this many many times since the patch. I can count on one hand how many times I have died to it.

There are so many counters to it that it is laughable. Most of the sooks crying about this seem to be DK's... Not used to dying before huh?

Counters:

Interrupt
Crushing shock
Shield charge
Critical charge
Damage shield
Bolt out of range
HEALING
Purge
Cleanse
Volcanic rune
Crystal shard
Poison arrow

Need I go on?

ZOS will nerf it because everyone is bitching so hard but how about in the mean time you guys crying worry about what is in your power to control and slot some skills that counter this? Hmmm?

Galalin · March 2015

I can honestly laugh at 90% of templars... its an execute and all i see is jesus beams on me at full health over and over just waiting for other players to get me to 50% health then watch me explode in a nano second.

One more note though... if all other executes are dodgeable.... why not this one?

Its getting fixed so i see no real issue with temps living it up for the moment.

DK SCRUB OUT

Tintinabula · March 2015

yes and there's no los on this which is just dumb...same with soul assault...ooooooo i shoot you through the wall!!

You can only interrupt it, if your low health you can't heal out of it. And you can't purge it...

Interrupt is your only way out.

olsborg · March 2015

I dont find it any more op then impale or endless fury. Its an execute, if youre low on hp its supposed to kill you unless you actively manage to mitigate/avoid it. Deal. (if it proccs at 50% hp and below tho, its a bit unfair to the other executes)

I've healed through it. Theory debunked! Get better healers.

Were you at 30% health and solo?

I wouldn't have thought it possible in that scenario. Glad to hear you came out the other side, I've only got away by a quick venom and then cloaking and bugging out.

I am all for the 50% fix, and even think the range should be 25m not 28m (so not 35+ in Cyro) but the bolded part of your statement proves that people do not understand how to counter a 3 second long channel.
