    All that for the very low cost of 128 ult. Probably 150 without the Sorc (I'm assuming) passive.

    Cost won't even matter if you get it back fully. @Wrobel

    What does the other morph provide?

    Wrobel is on record of having said, that back when they were first designing the skills in the game, they didn't think about balance, or how useful, or powerful, or how broken any given ability was. They just made up stuff they though sounded really cool. Who cares about balance and all that other tedious stuff.

    Seems like that is still the prevailing design philosophy at ZOS...

    What in the world?

    First off, 2h does not "need" aoe. The 2h skill line is already strong as hell. Giving it aoe will give it everything. Bad idea.

    But this is...absurd single target damage. The ignores mitigation part is a bad idea. Make it a % of current or max health damage, and then we can talk about ignoring mitigation. As long as it scales with your damage stat and can crit, just no.

    Stealing resistances is a cool idea, though.

    Resets on kills could also be good for a berserker 2h play style. That could be looked into.

    @KenaPKK , @Alcast , @Strider_Roshin , @Sharee Get a look at this.

    I laughed when I saw this. I have no idea how to balance it though. The damage is ridiculous, but if they nerf the damage will people still use it considering it's cost? Refunding all of the ultimate makes it completely spammable. Maybe have one morph cut the cost in half? But then the damage is even more of an issue... I need to see it's potential before I can one way or another about how it's numbers should be adjusted.

    So basically... because it ignores all mitigation, all you have to do is get your target's health down to whatever number it says on your tooltip (so probably 15k health), and you're pretty much guaranteed a kill, plus you can use it again right away on the next victim.

    Also, blocking will pretty much be the only defense against this, which will lead to even more people rolling Nightblades using Fear.
    Really we do it without like, the musical instruments. This is the only musical: the mouth. And hopefully the brain attached to the mouth. Right? The brain, more important than the mouth, is the brain. The brain is much more important.

    This is how they will fix the lag in PVP - every death will be a one shot. So either people will stop doing PVP or everyone dies really quickly - either way less movement equals less lag. Awesome result.

    The ultimate cost seems way too low. Wouldn't it be at least more balanced if it was at a 300+ ulti cost? hmmm.

    I don't understand.

    It's an ultimate, so scales off of yhe highest pool, correct?
    That mag character hasn't leveled 2H handed and doesn't have Mighty CP I suppose.

    So imho, it'll end up hitting as hard as Incap (maybe a little more) for three times its cost.
    The ignore mitigation can't be that OP, penetration already is at insane levels these days, for what concerns mitigation, MA and LA might just not be worth wearing.

    Yeah, I'm just trying to see the bright side of the matter.

    Penetration is high because people build for it. But with this you don't even have to; can build for something else, like Crit. Also one of the morphs makes it refund 100% of the Ultimate if you get a killing blow with it.

    I think ults scale off whatever is stat is max, which for that character is magicka (I think around 35K at the time).

    No, physical damage (including posion) scales with stamina and weapon damahe, while magical and elemental damage scales with magicka and spell damage.

    Not all scale with max stats, l.e. meteor scales with magicka..

    Weapon ultimate surely scales with their relavant stats..

    Since when? I thought ALL Ultimates damage scales off max attribute... hence the reason many Stamina players previously ran Meteor.
