Trash ganker

Ok, guess next video is gonna be a full build release.

@LeifErickson It's skooma. ;p

I dont have anything against ganking per se, but I dont get the fun with the burst builds in what is essentially PvDooring another player. It has made Cyrodil a lot more fun for me though, so I hope the OP keeps it up.

@Pathfinder I didn't know doors could move, do damage, heal, hold block, and use multiple counters to a build that relies only on stealth for survival.

That weapon bar swap bug is hilarious. Who needs a weapon when i got imagination.

Should use something else besides the basic cancer build of Velidreth and I assume Viper. It's not very creative, my friend.

@Elong In 2 1/2 years of playing ESO, he is the first person I have put on my Block list. lol

How to put this without being critical ... I would enjoy this more if shown after the fix for proc sets was already released ? Not to be insulting or judgemental in that statement .

@Rohamad_Ali Most people only see the procs, so I'm going to change the build to be more traditional. Then, people will only see broken stealth gameplay. I use the procs because they synergize well with what I want to do, and its not easy to get viper bow. However, its all good I'll just run a more traditional build and do the same thing I do now.

BTW how you liking the skooma set up we added. ;p

@bellanca6561n All I have to say is to try it. It's not as easy as it looks, especially now with all the counters and combat bugs in game.

Sorry that came off wrong. I know it's not easy and I frankly enjoyed the video.....laughed, yes out loud, several times.

I was simply wondering aloud about the larger picture as you do, at several junctures, because the best players also care about the larger game.

I am a big fan of all things Skooma related and ganking . My opinion on broken proc sets is in no way directed towards players but ZOS in needing to fix them so people who have gone through the trouble of getting them are not looked at in a judgemental way . It takes a lot of work to make these powerful builds and they will still be powerful after the double proc weapon swap and ranged defile glyph bugs are fixed .

Great vid bruh Lookin forward to showin y'all how it's done

Well, players can do all those things, but your build takes advantage of the fact that they most likely wont be able to do so. You videos show a lot of insta killing flat-footed players. I am not saying that insta killing flat-footed players should not be possible, just not so easy that tons of people end up doing it. It used to take a lot of skill, now it just takes proc sets.

So if I ran something like 5 spriggans and no 1 veli, 1 kena/kragh still doing the exact same thing that I do now you would then consider it more skillful? Even though I'd be pulling about the same numbers?

I'm purposefully running viper because Sribes and I thought it would be funny to use a set that is at first glace a melee range set, but use a mostly ranged weapon with it. At first people will look at the sets and playstyle and think "What?". Also, viper increases chance to proc veli. The build is probably the best synergized build in game. We dont even use surprise attack because of the mechanics that allow us to get main dps elsewhere.

That is always the goal with any build I play. Have people questioning how and why it works. Bow main ganking without snipe or poison injection and most people will look at you sideways. Until they see how powerful the build is. Then its "Oh, you're just running proc sets". No, we have a buddy not running proc sets pulling off the same stats.

Also, most of the people in the video I purposely picked because they KNEW I was out there. They either saw their buddy die, or could tell that someone was out there slaughtering. That scroll gank was the third time we did it. I agree that proc sets should get nerfed, but the idea that just because we decided to make the best synergized build possible while still leaving people scratching their heads looking at death recap with 5-6 things on it from one person in one second was too good to give up. Instead I think people just wanna see a 14k incap and a 16k heavy since that is more "skillful". So, I'll start grinding for alternative "no proc" sets. Then people can just say that "ganking takes no skill. Look at that damage, they had no time to react"
