I've been here since beta - have to add another post to my very conservative amount of forum posts (10 now) to plead against further destro build discrimination. Why do we have 2 close range AoEs? We are casters. I want ONE AoE skill i can cast further than 10m away from my location. You would think since all other weapons get AoE (2h- brawler, dw- nado, sb- slash morph, bow- lol, resto-...) the dedicated magic staff would have some sort of mid-long ranged AoE instead of just bow classes.

Because it makes soooo much more sense that an archer can shoot w 50+ arrows in seconds while a wizard w a staff can't AoE away from his/her fragile a#@....


Which brings me to the new destro ult. For f*@ks sake! It barely ticks for double Wall of Elements dmg. Cant we have this animation w/ 8-10m radius for Wall of Elements keeping that ~2.5k dmg/sec instead of a freaking 250 ULT?

Cant Pulsar get reworked at this point?

Or even buff Pulsar to ~3x dmg, same animation w a guaranteed status effect/knockback as an ult replacement instead of our only non tethered AoE being behind a 2 second cast time and 250 ultimate?

I understand a dev back in the day stated they wanted stam to be more powerful or something (Wrobel? i dont remember) but good lord guys!! Not only is the meta monster helm for stam getting a buff, but the magic options are so underwhelming. And honestly it doesnt sit well w me that the only real buff for existing magic sets is most benefited from by RD spammers.


Destro ULT Idea #2 - For 20 seconds, change all magic attacks to deal the respective elemental dmg of the staff @ 1.25x the dmg. Let me at least take my winterborne outta the closet.

Like meteor, except you are the meteor

@Wrobel doesn't care about magicka DPS, couldn't care less if its boring AoE I doubt he will change anything no matter how many times you throw your ideas.

A beam cone attack would be nice that changes depending on staff element for example a fire ball or fire pillar that does x damage for fire staves that also does DOT damage a frost pillar or Ice shards that can freeze the enemy for x seconds or a lighting blast that saps/absorbs x magicka from enemies we really need a low cost high burst ultimate similar to (2.3) Dawnbreaker of Smiting.

It needs to be in the 100-150 cost range and be some sort of burst damage.

No, you know how meteor drops down, thats you now, like meteor had a baby with dragon leap

Before this was released, I was kinda thinking, that this destro ult would provide a unique buff. Like major vulnerability for example.

Hits for 10K ignores all resistances and give you capped resistances. Range 8m.

I posted this in the feedback thread:

So here's another idea to just affect the current ultimate that I think would make magicka users happy and fits with the current multi-element theme:

Elemental Blast:
150 or 175 Ultimate
range: 20 meters
Single target
Concentrate your mastery of destruction magic into a spiraling blast of fire, shock, and frost damage for X damage.

Morph A: Elemental Storm: Ability is now ground targeted. Deals X fire, x shock, and x frost damage each second for y seconds.
Morph B: Master of Destruction: Staff type now determines the damage of the ability and grants bonus effects;

Inferno staves cause a fireball to be launched at the target dealing 100% damage with an additional X damage over time, always applies burning.

Shock staves cause chain lightning, dealing 100% damage to primary target and 50% damage to 2 other targets, always applying concussion.

Frost staves cause a cone of frost damage that deals 75% damage to all enemies in the cone and applies chilled.

Power of Destruction : Deal huge damage to enemies in front of you . Extra effect depending on your staff .

Flame Staff : Deals extra DoT damage .

Ice Staff : Roots and applies 70% snare after root is cleansed .

Lightning Staff : Deals 10% more damage for each enemy hit .

Morph 1 : Elemental Destruction

While slotted , elemental damage does 5% more damage .

Morph 2 : Elemental Rage

Deals increased damage and knocks enemies down .

Here you go . Good for both PvE and PvP .

How about a short range blast that did good damage but also applied multiple status effects of stun, snare and root for 2s, 12s, and 6s. Short ranged so damage is not reduced because its ranged. Status effects to provide quasi defence in pvp.
Morphs would be one thst debuffs spell resist or healing and one that provides buffs such as beserk for elemental magic.
