Each shield lasts 6 seconds. They will spend more magicka reapplying them so they don't take damage than they can expend trying to attack you. This really sounds like a L2P issue as there are ways you can get around this. Shield Breaker for instance. And there is a "star" you can put points into in the Champion System that will allow you to penetrate damage shields.

i do know how they work, i have a mag sorc and a stam sorc. i refuse to play my magicka sorc because the amount of dmg shields you can get. and with 45k max magicka pop vamp ulti, they almost die. pop shields 2 light attacks dead

Maaaan, you're taking me back to 1.5..or earlier? The Mag Sorc Vamp Times, glorious stuff :')
Are you a time machine :0

"Kill enemy sorcerers" is always the longest quest to complete while in PvP. I'd say this is more to do with scarcity than them being harder to kill.

why ZoS is it ok to have almost the whole pvp community running either mag DK , or Mag Sorc, running infinite dmg shields against all stam users.
is it fair ZoS, to be able to pop 20k dmg shields back to back with infinite magicka pool because of mutilple sets. dmg sheild really need to be nerfed ZoS. obviously its broken as hell thats why everyone you see running around dueling, and in cyrois running either a mag dk or mag sorc, poping dmg shields

As a Magicka DK with no proper healing nor burst damage and dots barely do any effective damage in pvp, i really have a hard time seeing how you can see a 3K damage shield on a mDK even remotely viable.

If you are having any issues against shield stacking players, you can always go for 5 piece shield breaker set.

My heavy stam DK characrer (no black rose, no velindreth/tremor/no viper set) does just fine against magicka sorcs and their shields. Really there are tons of sets out there that 90% of player didnt even touch and are just as effective as "meta".

But back on topic, magicka DK shields are OP? are you even for real?

I'm not sure if you're trolling or not but if it's such a problem why not run shield breaker?

Give 2 naked PvP players a stick each and tell them to go at it....

Within 5 seconds one player will have a sharpened stick and the other will have two short dual wielded sharpened sticks

PvP will never be balanced.

Seems in this scenario the balance is created by the players. Both are given the same thing but use it in different ways.

I think that is the point. You can balance the gear any way you want. You can balance skills against each other. But you can NOT balance how players will use that gear or those skills and what combinations they will come up with. As long as actual humans play this game (and not computer simulators) there will be gaps in player skill, play-style, skill use, class choice, race choice, gear use and, forever and always, the game itself- latency, connections, lag, server load

For a second....a split second I thought this thread stemmed from the patch today and thereby made me think "they did something for mDK finally after so long?!?!?!!!?!?"

.....nope

Try shield breaker set then.
Also, Mag sorcs, you gotta keep them very low on stamina to get a good chance

A Stamina build user whining about a Mag build, Funny since Stams were OP since last to major Updates... Leave Mag's alone dude

Please tell me where is the wormhole you took to go back in time, I *** up on a test, I wish to try again

You don't fully understand logic until you've been "reborn" in the church of logic. This feels like a troll its so out of touch.

clap clap 20k shield up

Imagine pushing one button and causing 3-4 procs to kill someone, that's more like snapping your fingers, and at least it takes two hands to clap.

This person is obviously not playing the same pvp as the rest of us. Prob 75% of the people I run into now-adays are stam based.
I do play a mag dk at times and people are surprised when they find out its not stam. Because everybody assumes DKs are stam right now.

If they are stacking shields/ it means they aren't doing damage. You can provide slight pressure till they run out of mag. Then burst them.

But, I feel like this is a troll board to get another stam buff.

If you are having problems with pvping a stam build rn, then your is build is messed up.

Cause stam is the Meta!
