Upcoming siege changes in next major update
ZOS_BrianWheeler
PvP & Combat Director
Hey gang!
In the next major update we'll be adjusting damage and other effects from siege weapons. This will go in conjunction with other changes regarding repair kits and keep upgrades, but the changes noted here are specific to players effects (damage, snares, dots, etc.).
These changes are currently being tested internally and may change before they go to PTS/Live:
Thanks for any feedback regarding these changes and again, these may or may not go up to PTS/Live exactly as stated here, but this is what we're currently testing
In the next major update we'll be adjusting damage and other effects from siege weapons. This will go in conjunction with other changes regarding repair kits and keep upgrades, but the changes noted here are specific to players effects (damage, snares, dots, etc.).
These changes are currently being tested internally and may change before they go to PTS/Live:
- Damage across the board for all siege weapons has been increased roughly 30%, but we are considering increasing that more.
- Snares have been normalized on all siege weapons that apply that debuff (ice treb, lightning ballista, oil catapult) to be a 50% snare, and last 6 seconds.
- All side effects from siege weapons (snare, healing taken reduction, siege damage increase taken) are no longer purgable.
- Oil Catapults will now also have a "Stamina damage" value added, which takes away roughly 5000 Stamina from enemy targets.
- Lightning Ballista will now also have a "Magicka Damage" value added, which takes away roughly 5000 Magicka from enemy targets.
- Ballista now turn faster and have their "scatter" variable removed, making them 100% accurate to your aimed location.
- Scattershot now adds 20% damage taken from other siege weapons instead of 10%
Thanks for any feedback regarding these changes and again, these may or may not go up to PTS/Live exactly as stated here, but this is what we're currently testing

This is NOT the way to go at all... compare a group of 12 and a group of 24, guess three times which group gets affected the most from healing reduction.

Morostyle✭✭✭✭WTF IS THIS ***? HAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAH
THIS IS RIP
So now a zerg can wipe anyone with 1 meatbag?
How u gonna defend a keep 10 man vs 30+?
only way I see this work is a group kiting a zerg in open world and use meatbag to initate - but good luck with the lag

Thanks for getting this out early for some feedback and critic.
Edit.
Okay I like the resources damage, this is going to be fantastic for hurting people who turtle up.
Regarding purge not working on siege attacks I am a little worried about this because while purge was very strong it was the only real way to clear their effects. It seems we're going from one extreme (purge > all) to the other (siege > all).
Also seeing as this change was made for purge any ideas about something for rapid menouvers as well as this is often the spammed skill to get inside a keep.Edited by Turelus on November 30, 2015 4:14PM@Turelus - EU PC Megaserver

Ofcourse it's awesome for you, you're a *** wabba zergling who never run in groups without less than 24 players in it, so obviously this will buff you.

NOT.
Well at least you no longer need to run purge on our bars.4 -
azoriangaming✭✭✭✭Really? All side effects from siege weapons (snare, healing taken reduction, siege damage increase taken) are no longer purgable.
this is just going to make the zergs more stronger, smaller groups won't have a chance to anything.
seriously who comes up with these ideas and thinks they'd be great because there is no thought into this at all you just haven't got a clue, you want to be splitting the zergs up not making them get bigger and win every time with a meatbag in this dumb down pvp because that's exactly what's going to happen.
the underpopulated side will never take a keep if this goes through.3 -
