Who says it's an exploit ?

However, I want this to be removed as well. I don't want this temptation anymore.

JuL1aN · July 2015

shhhhhh

Maulkin · July 2015

sigh

fix it already

It's really annoying, always being on a disadvantage if you don't want to exploit yourself... I don't give a crap about the IC if they don't even manage to fix things like this.

dsalter · July 2015

its not hard to fix either, just make it check for 4 seconds after casting/recieving buff to see if it's still slotted.

As the title states it is still possible for sorcerers to have magelight or bound armor on overload bar and have the buffs stay active when toggeling overload off. PLEASE FIX THIS BEFORE THE PATCH GOES LIVE @zos_ginabruno

Yes, this is part of why I have zero temptation to play my sorc right now. I refuse to use this garbage and I don't feel like being measured against sorcs who are using it and other bugs.

The Mundus/Fallen Star exploit is every bit as bad if not worse than this one to me since *everyone* can use it.

At very least these two bugs need fixed more than anything else.

Lol you serious ?? Having a toggled skill active that gives you benefit (Max magicka, spellcrit, regen(with guild passives) while not even having it on your actual bars, and you say "who says its an exploit?"

But I get it, since it is a sorc thing its alright. If Any other class /spec could do this you would rage and call it an exploit and demand it getting removed.

Most sorcs active on these forums make me sick .

You only get 5% Magicka and the 10% Crit. You get the 2% Magicka and regen for having it slotted, which you don't if you have it on your overload bar.

I mean, who knows if it is an exploit ? Maybe it's not

Valrien · July 2015

Quit complaining. It's not as if it's that much of an advantage :P

Dymence · July 2015

Why are you guys making such a ruckus about a bug which is absolutely useless?

Sure, you can toggle bound armor and inner light on overload bar and keep it when switched off, but as soon as you swap your bars it's lost.

It might be a funny bug, but that's all it is. It's utterly useless in real time play.

That's far from true. I have made videos and sent them to Brian wheeler about how to do it so they can fix it and even showed how you retain it AFTER you do it. Hell you can even unslot overload after doing it and you still keep the bonuses. Try again saying it is useless........my max magicka pool, from my video for brian, would love to have a word with you about how it isn't useless. The sad part is when you see people accidentally go into overload, which is when you lose the buffs and have to redo the exploit, quickly cancel and go in and cancel again to keep the buffs. It is apparent who uses it

Diamond_10 · July 2015

eh i just tried this on Live, i slotted bound aegis and inner light on overload, toggled them on, and the effects were gone as soon as i toggled overload off.
i even tried emptying overload charge and then toggled it off, still the effects were gone

Yeah....or the sorcs who are recording 1vX PvP videos with magelight displaying on their buffs while not having it on their bars.

@Diamond_10 you are not doing the exploit that's why lol you don't just toggle them after activating overload........that's NOT how it works rofl

@Ezareth Yea they are KING at showing them off. Guess all the followers make them feel rich with joy because people watch them openly exploit and claim to be good

well how the hell do you toggle them on BEFORE overload if theyre not on your bar? and you cant remove things from regular bar while in overload

"Only" . If stambuilds had something like this, a toggle skill giving crit + Max stam, you would be annoyed.

It is a exploit doing this on purpose. No denying it.

Edit: without having ut slotted on your 2weaponbars ofc.

Is this the one where people are walking around with multiple mundus active?

Yes. Its use is pretty widespread as well.

So you don't think ZoS should fix this exploit?..interesting.

Erock25 · July 2015

I will never understand the people sticking up for these exploits.

Docmandu · July 2015

Exploit Early, Exploit Often!

In ZOS's case.. early means 6 months...

Teiji · July 2015

It's okay, they fixed the Fungal Grotto mudcrab and Glenumbra Red Rook pig farms quickly enough.

This isn't as important as those issues, sorry.

Expect Camo Hunter to never be fixed on console, that way if it's fixed, you'll be pleasantly surprised.
