no that is dumb. heck, soul assualt is ten times worse.

Just because you die to it does not mean it is op.

How is soul assault worse?!

Hits harder. Shorter window. Snare. Cost less. Don't need to equip a specific weapon. Can't dodge. Splash damage. Sure something I'm missing.

You're immune to CC while it's active

I'd legit be embarrassed if I died to this, even in a 1vX situation its easy to avoid and won't kill you even if you just tank it.

EYE OF THE STORM IS FINE, BUT THAT BOW ULTIMATE HAS TO GO

I'm waiting for the big wrobel reveal and his balance changes. Zos has gotta have something coming... but when?

Not gonna lie, but I'm really scared. The gap between magicka and stamina is a lot smaller now than what it was, but I fear magicka will get overbuffed because that's just how they work.
Already seen a huge influx of people playing mdk now. I think they feel the power creep coming xD

I think the people playing mdk again are due to the gear set combinations that are available now more than anything.

The gap isn't nearly as bad as it used to be, but imo not because "magicka got stronger". I think both sides got stronger this patch, and I would prefer stam in every situation other than healing obviously still. Magicka will never have what stam has in terms of offense, defense, sustain all in the same package, but I could see it with the wrong buffs scaling out of control in terms of damage.

who uses soul assault? there are plenty of ults that do more damage then soul assault, and dont tie your hands up for 3-4s whatever long it is.

Bow ultimate is completely useless in PvP, high channel time and very low damage.

I find the Bow Ult works better as a finisher, but then there are much cheaper and easier to repeat finishers out there.

Soul Assault is what makes finishing the main quest worth doing. I think that is the only way to level that skill line. I could be mistaken though.

i've been playing my mDK since a few months before 1T went live. Even before 1T I found playing my character Ðårk Ŵølf enjoyable ( a bit tricky, yes, but still enjoyable ) The new gear sets have def improved the play of mDK a bit though so I agree with your statement about gear sets being a factor in more mDK's being seen

The problem with trying to use it as a finisher is that people go into defensive mode when they hit ~30-35% life, meaning they will spam dodge and heals until they have 0 stam or until their health recovers. Bow ultimate isn't going to help you with that.

Which is why it's hard to give up DBoS. I love using that against dodge rolling monkeys.

but, the bow ultimate is fun ...plus it makes cool noises and travels 36 feet...

pretty much all the fights I've been in lately in cyro are chaotic melee's involving dozen of players on both sides...

it seemed very easy to find someone to target and burn them down on an open field (open as far as buildings, still a ton of trees and rocks everywhere

)...

I haven't tried it yet, but, it seems like it will work well while defending from the tops of keeps and outposts...an ultimate that reaches 36 feet is pretty useful....

of course, getting someone to stay in one spot for 4 seconds while you shoot at them is a little challenging...
