So there have been threads on how camo hunter creams vamps on a daily basis. So I'm gonna start a thread where vamps are op in their own way creaming people.

How many of you people running in cyro have been owned by 4 vamps using bat swarm and mist and running around? I WANNA CRY NERF TOO! I say in an area you can only take damage from one bat swarm. No more no less.

    I once took a 10k concealed weapon during an 8k clouding swarm where the Vampire was invisible. This is insanely OP and vampires must be nerfed because this is an outrage. You need proof?

    I was under the impression that bats do not stack.

    The game's central concept of "PvP in PvP areas and be safe in safe areas" needs to stay the way it is.

    I think that's what hit me in my screenshot above. No way concealed weapon does that kind of damage, even on a good day xD

    You got owned by 4 vamps?
    I'd have to say, if you got ganked by 4 players, you'd be dead no matter what race, class, ability they use, don't you think?

    I have a better one for you.
    What happens when 4 NB's run in a large group while having Proxi Det on, spamming Steel Tornado AND use Batswarm?
    Humm? You gonna start moaning about those abilities too?
    There are countless abilities in this game that have very effective synergy, batswarm on it's own is nothing special or in any way more powerful than other abilities. And it does not instakill you either.

    Once again what stam players have been saying for ages. But no I can roll dodge out of proxy det now can't I? Amp steel tornado alone itself can't kill me. It's when the bat swarm is added to the equation where I pop. Best part is I have camo hunter slotted and it's extremely funny when I'm running in cyro and I see 5 while glowy piles of meat are running around.

    And FYI 4 people ganging should NOT BE able to clear a guild run group capturing objectives. I never said I died alone now did I? But Haha thanks for pointing out what we stamina classes have been saying people for so long. Getting ganked means you die. But getting farmed by 5 vamps using 2 of their skills when I'm in a group of 15-20 attacking a keep is ridiculous

    I like the combat tips. Next time just do some heavy attacks and you'll survive.

    On topic. If 4 people use their ultimates against you at the same time, you'll always die (maybe not if they are templars, but thats another topic).

    Wrong timeframe my friend. Vampires in ESO timeline are just fledgelings that only just broke off molag-bal's clutches, there are no vampire lords or even any organized vampire covens for that matter, all that comes a lot later.

    If your group of 15-20 gets rekt by 5 anything, vamps or not....hate to break it to you but you and your group have to really unaware or just plain bad. Probably the latter since you and your anti vamp wannabe van hellsing/blade forum warrior friends are so bent on trying to justify vamps getting 1 shot.

    Fail thread is fail.

    Once again I said people. That automatically implies a group. I stand firm in my belief (look at other threads) that if you get ganked, even by 2, you should die.

    Then you need to clarify your OP saying you get farmed while being in a GROUP, I get the impression you were solo.

    Anyway, that is achievable with and without batswarm.
    Proxi+Tornado+Sap/PE works just as well.

    We have a DC guild in PC EU that does exactly this and they barely use batswarm and achieve same results you describe. I still fail to see how batswarm on it's own is a problem?..

    LOLOLOL, this guy lives up to the stereotype of forum posters. Cries nerf when he gets owned, but can't take it when someone comes and exposes him. How do you survive 5 bat swarms? They use mist form and run around you. I've come to terms you're just another raging vamp who doesn't like to get his ass handed to him on the forums. And I'm preparing for this thread to be shut down cause there's a huge number of name calling here.

    But sit down and think, 9 times out of 10 these guys come jump down from onto of their keep with mist form use Batswarm and go back to mist and run around. And if you say it's because they come from stealth, aren't I doing the same thing with camo hunter? Only difference is that I bother putting in the effort to weave my skills so they time land on you for a triple proc.

    Yeah, but your are referring to a individual skill. Batswarm is ONLY effective in the right scenario while in synergy with the right skills, as a skill on it's own it is nothing special.
    Perhaps you should ask ZoS why are we allowed to use multiple AoE abilities at once, as what you describe can be done with many skills and combinations. The root problem is not vampires or Batswarm, but the combat mechanic itself.

    LOL, there's a sterotype for forum posters now? Anyways, I never cried nerf. I just think it's unfair for players to be able to constantly kill other players in half a second. You seem to believe thats ok. Not everybody is like you wants to play ESO on easy difficulty like you. Some of us actually prefer a challenge. Mistform got the *** nerfed out of, it's pretty pointless most of the time. I am not just another raging vamp lol, I barely even post on the forums.

    I've been playing ESO since day one though, I've experienced every broken, unbalanced skill or bug there is. And being able to 1 hit people is extremely unbalanced. I'm sorry that you aren't a good enough player to know what to do when somebody has a chance to actually fight back. As for batswarm, it's not that great anymore either, most people will just snare/stun you and then walk out of it's radius. It's not too hard to avoid a huge black cloud of bats circling around my head. You have to be blind and deaf to get killed by batswarm, especially devouring swarm.
    It's funny that you somehow think I got my ass handed to me lol. You haven't done anything but make ignorant and and silly posts while trying to argue how OP vamps are, lmao.

    Get back on the bench.

    Fail thread tbh.

    Once again what stam players have been saying for ages. But no I can roll dodge out of proxy det now can't I? Amp steel tornado alone itself can't kill me. It's when the bat swarm is added to the equation where I pop. Best part is I have camo hunter slotted and it's extremely funny when I'm running in cyro and I see 5 while glowy piles of meat are running around.

    And FYI 4 people ganging should NOT BE able to clear a guild run group capturing objectives. I never said I died alone now did I? But Haha thanks for pointing out what we stamina classes have been saying people for so long. Getting ganked means you die. But getting farmed by 5 vamps using 2 of their skills when I'm in a group of 15-20 attacking a keep is ridiculous

    Then you need to clarify your OP saying you get farmed while being in a GROUP, I get the impression you were solo.

    Anyway, that is achievable with and without batswarm.
    Proxi+Tornado+Sap/PE works just as well.

    We have a DC guild in PC EU that does exactly this and they barely use batswarm and achieve same results you describe. I still fail to see how batswarm on it's own is a problem?..

    Oh I'll get to that post once this gets closed. Slow and steady my friend. For now it's the topic of vamps. Putting up unrelated posts don't exactly bring out the problem that has been existing for a long time. And you do know this is a thing right?

    Yeah, but your are referring to a individual skill. Batswarm is ONLY effective in the right scenario while in synergy with the right skills, as a skill on it's own it is nothing special.
    Perhaps you should ask ZoS why are we allowed to use multiple AoE abilities at once, as what you describe can be done with many skills and combinations. The root problem is not vampires or Batswarm, but the combat mechanic itself.

    And now slowly we can move to the whole reason why I created this thread. It's to make a point. The same thingoes you said above can be said about camo hunter. It only works with the right scenario.

    1) person must be a vamp or werewolf
    2) I must be in stealth
    3) I must weave 3 skills to land at the exact same time

    How can I be faulted when I do all these things properly?
