Should not be spammable, simple as.

I'm a Templar, I can continuously spam Purifying Light to cleanse it, but why should I stand there and literally spam cleanse because of a Night Blade who is able to spam Mark Target?

Simple solution: Make Purifying Ritual have a small cooldown with Mark Target, or nerf Mark Target's effect. Costing more does nothing, they still spam it.

    "Why don't you just kill him?" Typical Generalized reply. Not every PvP situation involves 1v1, if you didn't know this by now.

    umm if you purify, and he marks again whats the problem? i dont understand. he has to waste his magicka re-marking instead of attacking, you have to waste magicka re-purging.

    whats the issue? is it purge is so much more expensive? does purge have a cast time or something? I'm lost here as to why? more details please as to the issue

    Repeat throughout the whole "fight" until some other enemy jumps in, and then another, and maybe another. What is the point in it being spammable?

    well you can always get out of range or maybe even behind something like a boulder building a tree even so they cant target you purge it then go into stealth.... if you just stand there purifying that is pointless unless you are out of his sight

    how else could it work without being in favor of the cleans/purger/purifier?

    If he debuffed you and you cleanse/purge/purify w/e you are no longer debuffed. And now both have a cool down. You are there status free. Doesnt that make his debuff pointless and work in your favor? how is that fair. If he could recast but you had a purify cool down the opposite would be true, and it would make the purfiy pointless

    So the only way it can be equal is if it can be reapplied, else the debuff is pointless., or the purge is pointless. If you remove debuffs and are then immune to dibilitating effects, (presumably all from the same skill?) you have just rendered all debuffs pointless. as well as curses, magicka detonation etc.

    maybe im still not getting it.Sorry ill move onto another thread.

    Marking a target costs the nightblade as much magicka as a Concealed Weapon attack. And twice as much magicka as a Funnel Health attack.

    He's being an idiot spamming his mark only to have it removed instead of using his resources to do something more productive. And how is this any different from somone spamming the destro staff debuff (which has no cost, BTW)? So, what, you want to "nerf" mark target to save that guy from his own idiocy?

    Nobody sees a problem here, and for damn good reason.

    It's not about "Oh you could have done this, or this" I do LoS all the time, I do do that and this and that, that's not the point.

    In a 2v1 for example, if I'm constantly snared until I have no stamina while the NB keeps up Mark Target, I may as well go AFK and watch Dr Phil or something.

    In a 1v1 vs a NB, I rarely lose, unless they keep Mark on me and then fear/hysteria, swish swish. I even kill NB's while Marked, that's still not the point...

    There's no soft cooldowns on anything really. I know this game isn't World of Warcraft but wow.

    In real life combat it is....
    hit.. parry... hit... parry
    or
    threat... parry threat ... threat... parry threat

    and every combination you can think of...
    until one of the two wears down (no Mag left), or is distracted, or is outmanoeuvred, or gets help from a comrade...

    But I feel with you :) I find these Mark Target sneakers quite annoying, like a wasp that just doesn't go away... even if he cannot really kill you... buhhh

    He has marked you other than applying fracture and knowing where you go and hide what is the problem?
    I don't mark unless I intend to follow up with a bow or what is the point?

    Attack, purge or run away.
    Why just stand there?

    Why shouldn't someone be able to keep spamming a debuff on you? You obviously know the counter to it, so I don't see the problem.

    Lol okay maybe shouting NERF was uncalled for, but generally I was wondering why there isn't any cooldowns, especially on snares, never mind mark target.

    Snares don't active cc immunity, if you don't think that's a problem, then you're unaware or you're responsible for immobilize-spam with your lil groups.

    I already stated that no one would agree anyway, and it was aimed at 2+ v Me, but then the argument comes in "Why are you trying to solo more than 2 players?" I reply: "Why not?" the generalized reply: "You're an idiot then!" I reply: "It's not hard to solo 2 or more players at once, UNLESS of course one of them literally spams Mark Target, causing you to stay defensive constantly while trying to escape/dodge roll/retreating maneuver out of a continuation of snares and slows until your stamina's drained etc etc

    There's nothing more to discuss, anyway. My opinion = mine, your opinion = yours.

    FYI - There is no such thing as 'night capping' in a world wide MMO.
    FYI - There was no paid Beta. When they launched the game the Beta was over, even if you don't think it was.
    FYI - It's B2P not F2P. There is a difference.
    FYI - It doesn't take any player skill to mash keys or buttons in this game. The ones that stay alive longer have the better internet connection and speed.
    FYI - The game is not broken, it still works. It just has 'bugs' that need to be fixed.
    Balance is a "Bad" thing.

    Example: There were hundreds of Jedi and only two Sith in Star Wars. The Jedi wanted, "Balance in the Force" and they got it. Now there are only two Jedi and two Sith.
