PLS REMOVE CC FROM JABS @ZOS
Mumyo
✭✭✭✭✭
Hi there,
just saying that the jabs cc is so horribly hurting ourselves that i beg for a removal of it.
We CC the enemy for around 0.5 seconds or less and grant a cc immunity afterwards.
The enemy dont even has to break it and that way we help em alot in pvp.
In PvE the knockback from jabs is totally not necessary and it wont hurt, in case its beeing removed.
So in case you take the cc away from jabs we can cc the enemy again.
Also i dont understand why other classes get cc's as the old jabs while our cc was beeing entirely destroyed.
Fossilize stunns and 100% snares the enemy in the same time. Imagine im melee and get fossilized, i have to break it and dodgeroll out of it. (eats around 30% stamina instantly).
In case i dont break it he can simply cc me again because i dont get any immunity afterwards.
I hope i didnt get too far from the maintopic.
PLS REMOVE THE JABS CC ENTIRELY SO WE CAN CC AGAIN, THX.
In case any players have other opinions, let me know but pls be gentle and argue instead of flaming or trolling, thx.

Observant✭✭✭✭I agree 100%. Let them roll out if they don't like it. It's not worth a cc immunity that's for damn sure. It's one of the only Templar melee single target abilitiesVehemence3 -

✭✭✭✭✭You don't need CC, you have jesus beam.
It was broken for a long time though, getting caught in a biting jabs spam forever CC was stupid. At least with petrify it breaks if they hit you.
Not sure how they could have 'fixed' biting jabs better than they did, but SOMETHING had to be done for pvp.Tl;dr really weigh the fun you have in game vs the business practices you are supporting.2 -
Digiman✭✭✭✭✭It seems like they are trying to make biting jabs less of a 1 hit CC dance. The immunity does seem a tad overzealous, but with Radiant Destruction it seems like a great way to replace.
Obviously they just don't think Biting Jabs should be designed for CC in PvP situations.0 -

Yeah, thats why they should just take the CC out of it. Nobody wants it there anymore.1 -

Rook_Master✭✭✭✭✭I agree 100%.
Please just remove the CC from jabs, as I'd rather not give enemy players a free CC immunity from the love tap at the end of it.3 -

Please make it a legitimate CC or remove it entirely.Make Rush of Agony "Monsters only." People should not be consecutively crowd controlled in a PvP setting. Period.2 -

Please read before you response here! @Mumyo never asked for a CC, he asked for removing it. Why? Simple answer: A templar can do biting jabs and then he won't be able to CC (like eclipse or some other stuff).
Not sure how they could have fixed jabs?
a) Removing CC
b) Jabs as a normal stun
Think about it. Your jesus beam argument does not hit the theme in this case.2 -

@lhorion thanks, try again[/quote]
You are not understanding and I am not sure its not on purpose.
He wants CC removed from Jabs so he can use some other more useful skill as CC when needed rather than have it tied to jabs.1 -
asteldian✭✭✭✭Just here to sign up. The CC is now meaningless in PvE and a hazard to us in PvP.
I am all for adjustments to skills if there is an issue, but a half assed fix like this is careless.
Just remove it. I think all Templars accept it cannot go back to the way it was, but meet us half way at least and get rid of the worthless cc.2 -
yodased✭✭✭✭✭
✭✭✭✭✭No I get it, the point is though jabs was completely broken as it was. The cc was added so you couldn't spam it and lock another player down indefinitely.
My initial post was an attempt at lightening it up, but for realsie there was a reason every templar in PvP would spam jabs over and over hoping to get you caught in perma stun.
The same reason that they spam RD with nirnhorn now, it is broken .
Same reason most dks spammed invasion talons and whip and bow users spam canceled snipe. They are easy mode.
I said, and was serious I'm not sure how they could have fixed Biting jabs in pvp so that it wasn't broken without adding the CC, if it is reverted to a 'regular stun' like it was then it will be able to permastun people again.
OP is asking for a fixed synergy to be unfixed so the ability can latch on and permastun people off guard.
What PvE content are you using jabs that you wouldn't use RD in now? I can't see a reason that you would need a magica based templar in PvE content as DPS that relied on jabs.
Tl;dr really weigh the fun you have in game vs the business practices you are supporting.0 -

✭✭✭✭✭OMG I said you don't need CC AT ALL BECAUSE YOU HAVE JESUS BEAM ERHMAGHAD
You asked to be able to CC AGAIN, which I retorted you don't need CC.

Giving it a 2 seconds or more stunn wouldnt be aproblem if it granted cc immunity too.
U can surely give it a very good cc. The problem before is that u didnt get any cc immunity by that kockback.
Now u get cc immunity for a 0.5 seconds or less stunn.0 -

What do u think the jesus beam is? Its nor working as intended and is only a executioner which is very good for group fights but seriously not on small scale or 1v1. U are also a very good target using it, no protection at all during casttime, thx to a very screwed shield.

Armitas✭✭✭✭✭
✭✭✭✭Not a templar so forgive me if i'm off base here.
Someone mentioned replacing it with a small snare which I thought was an interesting idea. As a melee DK when I fight you guys I just push through you and avoid the jabs because you are channel locked into that orientation. A short, small snare at the end of the jabs would make it more difficult to kite you and make it more likely for you to hit me with it. Then you don't have to lose something just to overcome this change.
Right now the CC immunity provided by this knockback is everyone's problem, not just templars. It is keeping all of us from using actual CC.
Does no one actually read these threads anymore or do they just come on to class QQ. Everytime this topic gets brought up it seems to happen, now and back on the pts when it was first brought up. We couldn't talk about anything on the pts because of all the class trolling and derailing. Every point or message became obfuscated over someones hurt feelings about some class. It's really getting bad right now.Edited by Armitas on March 10, 2015 3:51PMRetired.

✭✭✭✭After testing this skill - it's damage is ok, but granting cc imunity after is a problem and change attack passive direction is even bigger problem, wonder why noone talking about it (just ty to hit dk while taloned, small hint - it is impossible to do now)1 -
david.haypreub18_ESO✭✭✭✭✭
✭Just signing in to agree.
Since ZOS removed the Templars' only AoE CC (Blinding Flashes) to make room for RD, please change Biting Jabs to a snare, so we have at least a single AoE CC.
If you can't do that, please just remove the CC component from the skill entirely.
Please don't make this like Focused Charge: a useless skill because it does as much harm to the wielder as it does to the target.Templars are 'just slower... by design'
Yes, Gina actually said that (at least regarding Rushed Ceremony) right here:
