Should Impenetrable work like it did in 1.5?

Since nothing from the good ol' PvP days exist? I want to bring up a quick suggestion to reinstate the good old Impenetrable trait that negates the chance of crits in PvP.

Not because I dislike gankers, but because Stamina builds tend to have higher crit damage and higher crit overall. This should ONLY be a temporary fix to the Nirnhoned that is continuously being ignored.

Not that ZOS will do anything, anyways.

    Well, i don't like that impenetrable not just reducing crit hits but also crit healings you receiving like Resistant CP.

    Yeah...

    You shouldn't dodge or mitigate your own heals...

    And no, Impenetrable should not get back to what it was in... 1.5 you mean?

    I don't care WHAT they do to Impenetrable as long as they get rid of the horrible cooldown on Critical Surge heals.

    The reason I mention it is because some people say that the 1.6 changes to Impenetrable are the reason for the Surge heal nerf, even though ZoS has never given an official explanation.

    Makes sense considering I see Sorcs using entropy/rally. I think ZOS just wanted to nerf it so you can't negate all crit chance.

    Would like to see it reversed. One or two pieces of impen could make a big difference in 1.5. In 1.6 however, well fitted is better then impen.

    No. There should never be an obvious "choice" when it comes to gear.
    Make Rush of Agony "Monsters only." People should not be consecutively crowd controlled in a PvP setting. Period.

    Or have other people dodgetrolling your Sap Essence heals and charge their Ultimate because they dodgetrolled something.

    No, buff Reinforced and nerf Nirnhoned slightly.

    Also, buff health pools.

    No cause it was basicly a crutch and if you didn't have it you insta died from every ones super crit rate. As for Nirnhond I vote to remove it 100% from the game armor AND weapon. It's broken pointless and its white level is the same as purple level and that's just flat out broken.

    Getting rid of that surge heal would be ridiculous.

    It should be somewhere in between 1.5 and what it is now. Was too effective before, useless now.

    It should work like it does now and should be buffed, but not to the point it completely negates critical damage.

    Leaving it they way it is is ridiculous. It's completely broken now. Even without a CD, it still has limitations. You dont heal on blocked crits. Just cap the heals from AOE crits to 6 targets like sap essence. Problem solved.

    Nirnhoned should be fixed, but it is not relevant to this thread. No, do not revert Impenetrable.

    I agree about the cool down, but I'll take the current state over pre-1.6 without hesitation.

    Playing a sorc since beta, Some heals are preferable to no heals. Running a 75% crit DW build with 3500 weapon damage and vigor was getting me some pretty good survivability and damage.
