    16damage a second is not very much lol
    Even if it was like the staffs it would have been better.

    I think Volley lasts 8 seconds. So since it stacks, the extra damage would be:

    8 + 16 + 24 + 32 + 40 + 48 + 56 + 64 + 72 + 80 + 88 + 96 + 104 + 112 + 120 + 128
    = 1088 total / 8 seconds = 136 DPS

    It could crit, of course. But it still seems really weak compared to the other Maelstrom enchants.

    If there was one I would think it would work in combination with the shield like the dagger does (50% chance to proc per item with enchant), but since there is no stipulation on the shield... I'm not holding my breath.

    Great Sword way OP.

    Also, why do 2 handed staves and bows have the same attack power as one handed weapons etc? They should have the same as the Greatswords and Mauls being a two handed weapon and all, otherwise what is the point of using them?

    2 handed weapon looks so overpowered. This is not justified.
    Can't we get a force shock bonus on destruction staves, so it finally is in line with other spammable abilities ? :D<3 Wall of elements is so meh and barely used, while critical charge is used a lot and is wohoooo

    Oh sure make the most overpowered weapon line even more overpowered.

    In the darkest timeline, not only does the 2hander go live like that -- it also reintroduces the Wall of Elements / Purge bug from PvP back in the day, whereby hitting purge after being crit rushed triggers all of the damage over time from all of the separate crit rushes you've received to all register at once and then you explode, because every single enemy is a 2handed garbageman. After that, you get teabagged.

    What and utterly ridiculous, inexplicable pile of steaming dross.

    Staffs no-one but a drooling idiot will use and a 2H sword only drooling idiots WON'T use.

    Whoever programmed these either wants to be sacked by the people responsible for game balance or ZOS need to start recruiting people willing to use their elementary math skills.

    How the hell does that charge damage bonus equate to getting a few hundred damage bonus against a target stupid enough to stand in an elemental wall, which was nerfed into utter irrelevance to the point nobody uses it anyway?

    Anyone who plays this game can see how unbelievably unbalanced these extremes are from just looking at them!

    This is the most pathetic example of bad design I have ever seen in any MMO at any point whatsoever, and I saw some pretty poor stuff by Funcom... but this - it just amazes me, even after all this time watching the mistakes made in this game already...

    ... just admit it devs - you want staffs to be flat out the worst weapon in the game by a country mile, with no ways of fixing it for your poor players by going after so called 'master weapon' versions.

    Stop putting 'use shite and unpopular skill x to get pathetic bonus y' abilities on staves!

    You wonder how the hell this kind of thing gets past the first design concept meeting, really...

    Exactly. The gap between melee weapons and magical weapons is big once again.
    The bonus for maelstrom staves should be reconsidered and replaced with something equally in strenght to what melee weapons do.

    If you're asking me, maelstrom staves are another hidden attempt to make a weak and underused abilitiy (wall of elements) attractive so people use this trashy ability just so that Zenimax gets their statistics right. 'Oh, wall of elements gets used by enough people. Seems like it's a good ability and love to use it. We did a great job here' Woa.... !

    Steel tornado (maelstrom daggers) is used A LOT, so people won't have a sacrifise getting this awesome bonus. Critical charge is pretty much used by any 2 handed fighter, imagine this overpowered DoT combined with wrecking blow.... good fight, good night. So each melee guy will get this awesome bonus.

    While bows and staves once again get nothing. Nobody uses wall of elements, because it's just weak.

    Which only beggars the question - why isn't the damage bonus TEN TIMES HIGHER... because that is the ONLY way ANYONE might consider it.

    Wall of elements has always been crap. It is even more crap since the last major patch, and this staff makes no difference whatsoever to that clear and present reality.

    To add insult to injury, Destro Staves are the second class cousin to every other 2H weapon in the game - meganerfed passives, poor dps, dross and unused abilities...

    Really Drac. I just cannot get my head around how utterly illogical and (can't find another forum acceptable word for it) this design is!?
