I was running this set combo pre One Tamerial. Now that everyone and their mother is using it, PvP has become a "who procs first" state. Sure it very well could have been this way before the update, now it's over used.

    Not saying that. You automatically assume I'm complaining because other people are using it. It is becoming a problem becausr 9/10 stam users are wearing it and is no longer about gameplay and skill.

    Now everyone has easier access to sets and its OP. Just use your so called skill to make sure you win the battle(and that doesnt mean your ability spam/choices, thats not skills)

    Skill has been removed in pvp a long time ago. CP, Poisons, Heavy Armor, S&B and Gear in general is way over the top and kinda "Fked" the gamplay.

    I went pvp for 1 hour on weekend, havent pvped like for 2 months and all I saw was full grps running widowmaker/Viper/Tremor. :trollface:

    They pormised a balance update with housing, lets see where it goes

    LOL, you are kinda right.

    But honestly, when unbalanced stuff is difficult to obtain, it is has less impact. When it gets handed out to everyone for little to no effort it becomes a major issue.

    Not getting killed anymore now than I was before. Its just sad to see that there's only obe build that everyone uses now. I'm in the process of making a roll dodge build now for giggles.

    Ok so now You're saying it was not a problem if 2/10 players was wearing this and You was between them but now it is problem when other followed ?... It was cancer You knew it and You was spreading it but now when PvP have metastasis You started to think that something is bad ?

    I dont blame players for wearing this setup because why they shoulnt if it's OP , but when I see posts like this one it makes me laugh.

    No magicka isn't dead in any way. You can still rek people as a magicka player as you used to but it really got harder with the new proc sets. But magicka has, groth and infernal guard and skoria which absolutely melts people in pvp.

    My biggest concern about the proc sets is that you can count on the proc after the cd. The most useless sets which deal less damage or don't offer anything have a lower proc chance than viper/veli/red mountain/ widowmaker.
    Maw of the infernal for example has a ridiulously low chance of 10% on light and heavy attacks to spawn a deadroth which dies fast and can only attack about 4-5 times in pvp before it automatically dies.
    Veli has a 20% proc chance on damage to deal more damage than the deadroth every could.

    In PvP you have no idea what 'full grps' are wearing. You may be able to see monster sets, detect procs from certain people but you cannot claim beyond the few people that killed you, or possible those that hit you if you trawled through your combat logs which I seriously doubt.

    No wonder the devs struggle to balance PvP when everyone cries foul as soon as they die, provides no evidence of anything and claims the whole world is against them.

    Also love the irony of the OP who is no longer automatically winning the proc race so starts crying about it.

    Yup. Even after the vast majority of the elite left the game, there was the great possibility new folks would step up and bring back competitive pvp. Sadly the lag + the aforementioned issues ended that possibility.

    Pvp is in a pretty sad place right now. The amount of 1 shots I recieved last night from thèse sets was amazing. How can it be fun knowing you are running a no skill combo. That its the sets killing not your actual skill.

    I heard all the rage about these sets so got them and tried out before T1 console even. Found them to be not so good for PvE. So they're good for Cyrodil....I'm going to sell it to the vendor.
