    they have done something, we will see when update kicks in.

    pvp armor balance is still rubbish atm,
    weapon balance in pve is not that bad
    pve armors are fine

    seems like only major problems are in pvp atm, and it's due to heavy armor being far superior to anything else and proc sets being bit OP , that should be main forcus imo.
    only logical choice would be adjust how armors & proc sets work in pvp


    sorry for repeating myself on this but hope devs notice and get some thougth on this:

    (to fix armor balance all they need to do is simply seperate battlespirit buff for each armor class
    e.g.if you wear 5 armor pieces of
    light - increase magicka by 15% & health by 5%, mag recovery +15%
    medium - increase crit damage by 10%, increase stamina & health by 15%, sta/hp recovery +15%
    heavy - increase healing taken by 15%, reduce damage taken by 10%, reduce damage done by 20%

    + additional battlespirit for weapons
    bow - increase damage done by 10%, +10% poison damage
    1handed and shield - reduce damage done to players by 10%, increase hp/sta/mag recovery 20%, reduce damage taken 10%
    dual wield - increase damage done by 10%, +10% crit damage
    tho handed melee - increase damage done by 10%, +5000 physical penetration
    destruction staff - increase damage done by 10%, +10% elemental damage
    restoration staff - increase healing done by 20%, hp/sta/mag recovery by 20%,

    this would effectively fix lot of issues with HA being OP)

    I was going to reply "no, not at all" because, really, nothing that they did regarding balance was something I wanted or asked for. But I feel that it wouldn't be fair because they kinda did something with ice magic. Not something I wanted to be done, but something nonetheless.

    But I'm willing to try out the changes they made and see how I like it.

    Just so that everyone knows, my Altmer still can't have black hair. About a dozen of Altmer NPCs in the game have black hair. Just saying.

    Meet my characters:
    Command: Do the thing.

    Zadarri, Khajiit Fist of Thalmor: The thing was done, as commanded.
    Durza gra-Maghul, Orc blacksmith: The thing was done perfectly, in the most efficient way.
    Tegwen, Bosmer troublemaker: You can't prove I didn't do the thing.
    Sings-Many-Songs, Argonian fisher: Sure, I'll do the thing... Eventually. Maybe.
    Aerindel, Altmer stormcaller: After extensive research, I've come to the conclusion that doing the thing would be a waste of resources.
    Liliel, Dunmer pyromancer: Aerindel said I shouldn't do the thing. Something about "resources".
    Gyda Snowcaller, Nord cryomancer: I will find a way to do it that won't waste resources and make Aerindel proud of me.
    Beatrice Leoriane, Breton vampire: I persuaded someone else into doing the thing. You are welcome, dear.
    Sahima, Redguard performer: Doing the thing sounds awfully unpleasant and really not my problem.
    Ellaria Valerius, Imperial priestess: I'll pray to the Eight for the thing to be done, if it is Their will.

    Not really every thing but the Sorc changes once again the crys of the Sorc go unheard also they nerfed hurricane so yeah not happy bout that but everything else looks Ok would have liked a bigger nerf to destro ultimate and maybe a damage buff for Sorc pets but a step in the right direction on that part but sadly Sorcs needed some major changes and we didn't much

    What I most wanted to see in the balance update was another pass at traits so that sharpened wasn't the only dps option. What I got was a number of small to medium nerfs leaving me wondering if they want balance the same way we do.

    Destro ulti should have been nerfed in 10% or more.
    Dark deal is too powerfull and they didnt touch it.
    Merciless should refresh on firing.
    They think messing with staves will make them feel like unique weapons....well they dont, skill lines are still identical.
    Dragon Blood just seems even more weird.
    While i still think sorcs are top in magicka dps in pvp.....curse was fine.
    They should remove the 300 snares in everything templars do, not remove the stun from shards.

    I'm honestly wondering if they didn't actually buff the desto ultimate. They gave it -5% damage, but changed the heavy attack passive for one that does 8% more single, or AoE damage (depending on what staff). So wouldn't that make the ulti hit 3% more?

    I really didn't expect magicka NB's and (non-pet) Sorcs to be nerfed. I think it's ridiculous.

    The frost staff changes are intriguing. I'll give them that. But the nerfs to Strife, Curse and Overload (via the ultimate max) make no sense to me. Heck, I expected buffs. I'm an idiot.

    With this "balance" update it has shown that they have no clue what they are doing balance wise. I call for new devs, we need new brains behind this game because the current ones are not doing anything and are actually hurting the game negatively.

    Why nerf things that werent needed??? Like overload or strife?
    Why are useless abilites like Healing Ritual or the restoration staff ultimate......still...useless.... While Heavy armor being way too OP and unbalanced against light armor.... everyone was too overhyped cause we thought that finally we had some decent balance changes, but instead got nerfs where it wasnt needed and no buffa where they were needed....sad...

    There wasn't really anything that needed changing in PVE at the moment, the major concerns/rage/broken mechanics were from PVP and even then it wasn't a lot of things, and most of them could have been fixed with some minor tweaks.

    What really makes me scratch my head is why they would do a PVE nerf after all of the positive feedback since OT update was focussed on PVE and how it revitalised the game. With that kind of response on an update why would they then nerf a bunch of things no one has a problem with in the very next patch but leave everything the community has raged about untouched?

    The nerfs that have been implemented just make no sense at all eg Velocious Curse, Blazing Spear, strife cost increase...... None of these skills have ever been mentioned anywhere by anyone as being unbalanced, OP, or underperforming so why on earth would they make the changes before they fixed the skills that are truly broken??

    Makes me wonder if the Dev's are actually playing the same game as the rest of us????

    I have done some serious research and I think I know what is reason why is zos doing this: because its f****** hilarious!

    Yes its true. Zos is Gerald Broflovski from South Park, aka Skankhunt42. And he is trolling us.

    Don't believe? Well listen this. Gerald Broflovski and Skankhunt together make 3 words. Well Zenimax online studios is also 3 words. Start to feel pretty confused? Thats not all.

    Geralds' son's name is Ike. What it rhymes with? Thats right: hike. Where you can hike at? On mountains. Well where are mountains? In Tamriel. Game made by ZOS. I know at this point you start to realise there must be some connection between these two, but I have still one thing that proves that Gerald is Zos.

    There are 3 factions in ESO. Gerald has one wife. If he had two more wifes, how many would he have? Thats right: 3, like 3 factions.

    So yeah Zos is skankhunt42 and he is just having fun, so don't worry guys!

    They haven't add any new tree to this game since launch, only active ability we got were weapon ultimate since release of the game... (or almost).

    I don't think I'm not being listen by the dev, I think they haven't wanted to make this game evolve. That's the main issue. No changes to champion system which is a crap because each patch they increase it they need to nerf Something else (sustain mostly). Also, no change in MagSorc behavior or class oriented skill either... no upgrade either... mainly moving the same stuff around since launch...

    Most of the time I do agree with what they bring, or at least a part of it, and I know next patch MagSorc will end up in a good place due to the modification of destrostaff... but still... they need to get creative, a 100 new set ask a lot of time to a team but if, at the end of the process, only 8 are really use... why bother to create a 100. That's what's wrong with the team at Zenimax. They believe their world is complete... or as complete as it could become, and so they stopped to believe they could challenge us with new things.

    They need to shock us a little, add some decent level, raise CP cap by a 100, and try to give Something that we don't expect. Currently most move are the right one, but too little too late.
