So on Eso live Gina said some changes to proc sets are coming next patch but she doesn't know what they are . They discussed further changes in the future but no mention of exactly what is planned . Is this good news or what for ESO ?! Wild speculation and suggestions appricated .

    I wonder if this will be a case where no sustain backtracking is implimented and PVE gets further screwed for the PVP minority.

    Oh they'll be here, but I can say that I have 2 characters that don't use proc sets currently and 1 NB that I cheesed out to the max to enjoy it before they nerf it. Good times.

    Depends on the set and the setup.

    Will also likely depend on what sets are effected.

    IMO they should make the damage scale off stats like any other skill with the current values being near the maximum achievable. They are already been affected by CP allocation.

    Kodi was on the show and had suggested a global cooldown so three proc sets can not proc at once . Gina said they are open for suggestions and feedback but do not blame her as she does not touch the game code and if she did it would be worse . Much worse .

    We noticed that only 2% of players are using sets with procs, so we decided to add proc effects to each set on top of the existing set bonus and increased the damage by 13.5%.

    Honestly cant be worse than the mismanagement that's allready going to occur. Of course, what his the PTS hits live.

    So, I expect proc sets across the board will get nerfed, a limiter might get implimented later, but no nerfs will be rethought.

    Please please please. Can't come soon enough.

    Stam builds, especially Stam NBs, are totally broken right now if built correctly.

    I saw a sNB go 29-0 last night. He was wiping groups of 4. His score would have been higher if the other team hadn't quit.

    Damage values lowered similar to the Defiler change? Hmmm....

    Still, for myself its a bit of a downer. I don't PVP, but recognize the need to adjust these types of sets for it, I make use of the sets on non conventional builds to help with survivability. I think something like preventing all sets from being able to proc together would add to my recent lack of motivation to play due to the recent sustain changes. Its been said many a time of course but I do wish sets could have multiple characteristics allowing for better balance of PVE & PVP. It just feels like all the fun is being sucked out of the game.

    They need to do something like BSW got. Specific nerfs that leave it viable for some instead of all.

    LOL

    I don't think I've been in a single BG and NOT had viper on my death recap. Most abused set in BG's.
