    Thank you Jessica. I would make this note longer but I need to run and make some nirnhoned weapons
    "it's important to state that our decision to go with subscriptions is not a referendum on online game revenue models. F2P, B2P, etc. are valid, proven business models - but subscription is the one that fits ESO the best, given our commitment to freedom of gameplay, quality and long-term content delivery. Plus, players will appreciate not having to worry about being "monetized" in the middle of playing the game, which is definitely a problem that is cropping up more and more in online gaming these days." - Matt Firor

    Yeah it sucks to be melted like you have no armor by someone who you literally can't kill because you are all defense. Well 50% defense. #tanklife
    Tl;dr really weigh the fun you have in game vs the business practices you are supporting.

    In pretty much any quality MMO this is a critical bug and hotfixed in hours.... you allowed it to go live after it was reported and you are now investigating?

    Do you want tips on how to manage a MMO? Just copy Blizzard, they hotfix this kind of problem. In hours. Not months.

    I'm still doing massive damage with Radiant Oppression. I barely even noticed the fix they implemented today.

    This is one of those major bugs that can ruin the overall impression of PVP and the game at the "relaunch" of the game the 17th march.

    Unless you want to have another round of negative gameplay feedback across the internet on ESO launch 2.0, this is one of the MAJOR issues you need to get HOTFIXED *fast*.
    PVP is 100% broken right now, and the nirnhorn bug is a big reason for it.

    I really want ESO to succeed, but with major bugs like this being ignored for so long I'm losing hope.

    well as i do agree it must be bugfixed as soon as possible at best yesterday...
    from my personal balance view heavy "tanks" should be crushed by magic (in the circle of life... light < med < heavy< light).

    I did a test on a mob yesterday. Used dark flare.

    with 2x Dual dagger precise= 13,4k crit
    with 2x Dual dagger nirnhoned= 16k crit.

    and with a staff it would prolly be even higher due to the passive from destro ability. Did sb make some tests?
    It will also *** up dps in Trial bosses as they have huge resistances and with nirnhoned you just ignore 100% of dat.

    The difference on mobs is quite big when in execute range. It is only like a 1-2k dps increase on a full hp mob so still not worth using. The dps increase when in execute range is... well its funny.

    Looking at Potent Nirncrux prices, it seems the server community has catched up on this.

    Nirn gives way more spell pen than one would need, even when they do fix it smart wizards know exactly how much pen to aim for and I will still melt you with my fire spells.

    Yes, heavy armor is worthless in Cyrodiil, again!

    Resistance is the point at which spells hit you, then dmg is calculated. Heavy armor isnt useless you just need more points in elemental defender from the champion system.

    unluckly there is an huge problem about bug fixing, i love eso and my sub is active and will be active also after b2p, awesome graphic gameplay etc. but this in game support guys... it's a sub fee game, when some1 makes a ticket reporting a bug you should 1)answer to him in game 2)disable it 3)fix it. players that are abusing about this 100% spell pen bug are always more and are many many days that we are reporting it. yes the example of the launch dupe bug was right all reported it for weeks but at launch it wasn't fixed yet-.- now can you PLEASE do something about this spell pen bug? it's just sad to do pvp 15+h day against exploiters.

    How this bug works exactly? I'm not asking to exploit it too, I just restart playing and I'm having fun in vet dungeon.

    You just need to equip a Nirnhoned weapon and your ALL YOUR SPELLS will penetrate 100% spell res in pvp?
    Or it works only with light / heavy attack?

    It is very sad that ZoS can't fix this stuff with rapidity, I remember the first month how frustrating was the Vamp Ulti exploit and it remained in the game for a while.
