    it's not exactly a skill/ability - but, to me the most underused skill is blocking...

    Anything from the one-handed skill line...

    (I know...)
    Just because you don't like the way something is doesn't necessarily make it wrong...

    Earn it.

    Ranged hard CC that does damage and procs Mountain's Blessing. It's the DK version of javelin and a good skill... it's just not good enough to slot over fossilize or even crushing shock, and usually in PvP if you see someone using it they are spamming it instead of using it as CC. And it's way too expensive to spam.

    Trapping webs.

    Was used by sorcs until it was turned into a stamina skill. Now... yeah, this one might be the least used.



    After we guess will you tell us the real answer @ZOS_RichLambert @ZOS_GinaBruno ?

    This is another skill that is amazing. Especially in dueling and kiting. I can't even use the other morph anymore.

    Fire Rune, hands down. Such a worthless skill.

    Disagree it's very useful for CC and an AoE for PvE

    But I used it in PvP one day to be a jerk along with wall of elements in 2 keeps. I think it caused ppl to rage quit

    Imagine getting knocked up in the air...falling while taking dmg and I lay down wall of elements all while others are attacking you

    Then some Templar throws down a spear

    Yes. It's a really good. Hey attack this guy for a healer.


    It's more useful now due to the Templar healing nerfs IF it's a melee group but if I'm with casters I use another skill for resources for the group

    Elemental Drain from Destro Staff.

    I know its useful, but, danged if anyone who likes to watch their own sparklies will put it on their bar. Too many other things that do damage.

    Where is the end game? You just played it.
    Why don't I have 300+ skill points? Because you skipped content along the way.
    Where is new content? Sigh.

    I'm going to try it with quick siphon on my healer. Then I can help resource manage while hanging at the back and having a smoke...

    You might be thinking of Oblivion's Foe. I tried to adopt it once, but I was disappointed to find it doesn't affect the Ultimate skill. So that was that.
