the damage is ok i guess but the loss of bonus effects kind of makes it less desirable.

    As I said in another thread, its damage per cast is only 20% higher than before.
    Still just as useless as before in my opinion.

    The changes to elemental rage look more like a nerf to me as well. Unless you like being forced into fire staff, as always.

    Trinimac is my shield,
    Magnus is my mind.

    Yup. Still trash.

    The buff to SA is funny though. CC immunity? That isn't enough. It needs to be instant.

    THIS IS ALSO NOT BURST.

    A melee dps and a magicka DPS both at 20% using berserker strike and this is not a competition. Berserker strike will win every time, range is not a defense line here.

    In the time it takes SA to channel, Vigor and Rally ticks will knock off some damage. Meanwhile, melee gets insta-cast ults that everyone agrees are OP.

    & this right here is the problem....

    They need to do something different with the ultimate to make it worth slotting over meteor...

    At the minute Meteor is:

    - Cheaper
    - Does more damage
    - Gives 2% max magicka for being slotted (Increasing overall dps)
    - Increases magicka recovery 2%
    - Gives empower on next skill

    With the changes in 6.1 there is now even less compelling reasons to slot the destro ulti.... the damage buffs to the shock & fire versions are still way below meteor & that is all it does.... literally nothing else.

    just gimmie a propper flame/frost/shock bolt from the left hand thats fast, has a CC effect and hits as hard as a procced sorc frag.

    fire can stun, shock can "paralyze" meaning a stand on the spot fear and frost can impale, meaning a root that increases the cost of the next dodge roll by 30%.

    all lasting 2-3 seconds. TADA! we just made the ulti desirable.

    Elemental Storm is bugged and apply additional elemental effects(root/duration/damage) only to Elemental Rage morph.

    Meteor will always be my buff because of the passives in Mage's Guild that give extra Magicka, which translates into even more damage... especially since I already have to have Magelight on my bar just to be competitive. May as well maximize the Mage's Guild buffs since they're so critical.

    From the Patch Notes thats intended. They specifically state "Fiery/ Icey/ Thunderous Rage and that it replaces the 100% status effect application, an effect only the Elemental rage morph had.
    This is imo actually a good thing, because a PbAoE with built in immobilize would not be very healthy for the game.
    Whether or not they should buff the ult in other ways ill leave up to debate.

    Destro Staff users need an inexpensive burst ult. Magicka builds already have good AE options.

    While I'm sure 2H players are giddy about its new Ult, a 2H AE ult would have provided better balance.

    With current status it making Elemental Rage no-brainer choice while other morph have zero benefit from destro-staff types.
