The counter argument is going to be "if it's in the API it's intended", but that's just excuses for wanting to keep it. Plenty of things in game were included for one reason or another, but ended up being abused and eventually eliminated in some way.
The host of "empowered by miat's" players has grown and grown. The worst of them are the "gankprocblade" types that sit in stealth using miat's for nearly everything and procs for everything else. Their entire playstyle is watching miat's and reacting to attacks it tells them are coming and then "countering" with 2 proc sets attached to a critical charge and incap strike.. then they go back to watching miat's waiting on the proc cooldowns as they dodge roll and cloak. Rinse repeat.... it's a pretty bad play style and it's total cancer as it spreads.
The amount of players relying on Miat's for everything has grown... it's roughly half of players you see. Some groups it's rare to see more than a few "empowered by an addon" players and with some groups it's rare to see a single non-Miat's abuser in them.
If you question how it's created a play style that bad for the game... let's just say it's empowered a reckless aggressive play style that now has much less risk attached to it's aggression. If your entire play style is critical charge->execute->dodge roll->goto1 and you run multiple proc sets... well, you don't have to do very much to achieve in the game. The worst part is the abusers talk as if it takes skill to do it. The risk to overextending and over aggression has always been dying quickly and badly... but now, they have warnings alerting them to everything.
What makes it even worse is those that play with more dubious "addons" on top of it. Take a high damage and little sustain build and add sustain and ridiculous passive dodge chance (with a little damage added on the top, just for laughs) and combine it with warnings for attacks and you get people posting videos on youtube about how awesome they are. Fact is... you just can't hit them enough times to threaten them through a vigor animation cancelled by a dodge roll or two.
The biggest counter argument a miat's abuser will make is that is makes ganks more likely as miat's is their only defense. It's your only defense because you choose to run a build and gear setup that doesn't counter ganks and ranged barrages in any way past being magically alerted of their impending arrival. Much of the complaints about ttk and what not is totally skewed by players that can run max damage builds without much fear of being gibbed.
Miat's has affected the entire pvp dynamic in a very bad way and the api needs to be changed.
"I don't like it" is just an excuse for not wanting it in the game? I like how it's still an issue when it's already been posted in this thread it does nothing outlandish anymore, and the main complaint about it is that it does something many, many addons were doing for a long time before (which no one complained about).This addon removes the need for a player to have good situational awareness. If you turn your back to a sorc to sprint away, should you know a projectile is incoming? You made a choice to turn your back to them.
No one is sprinting away from just a sorc. If I'm sprinting away from you and dodging your frags it's because you're trying to Xv1 me. You don't have to get so triggered when someone gets away from your 5v1 attempt and go into some rage induced blood craze smashing holes in your walls while you furiously type away on the forums about how that player shouldn't be allowed to not get 5v1'd.PC NA

Wether or not ganking is acceptable or not is not your call or Miat's call, that's the game designer's call. I'm not a fan of vigilante justice, let alone from a Russian in Trump's America
And regardless how you feel about stealth play (I am not a fan), an add on that tells you when to dodge to avoid incoming projectiles is bad for the game. It's one step away from a macro playing the game for you.

I love you for creating this comics-like hero vs villain setting with some backstory, characters' hidden motives and other fluff.
This is awesome. Thank you for being you
@Drummerx04Drummerx04 wrote: »He was referencing the sheer ego in rolling a glass cannon dodge stam build,
This part (and consequently the following ruminations) is completely false:)
I run the tankiest version of a medium armor stamblade that can be there, while still having any damage.
6-7 impen. Dark cloak for minor protection buff. Eternal hunt and troll king for survival. 5/1/1 and one prismatic glyph for more hp.
The whole point of our half a year's old discussion about gankers was, that no matter how tanky you could get in medium you still were getting oneshot from stealth.
You missed the point then, you still miss it now.
Unfortunately, mag sorc perspective biases your judgement quite hard.Drummerx04 wrote: »decided to create an addon to counter stealth attacks rather than making a sacrifice like putting radiant magelight on your bar.
As it has been shown to you and other people multiple times before radiant magelight is not a solution even to oneshot ganking problem. And it makes your build even worse in other circumstances.Drummerx04 wrote: »When asked about his motives and reasoning he takes up the position that stealth is unfair
Stealth is unfair:) But it doesn't mean stealth cannot exist in this game. Cyro has to be unfair to be fun.
The idea was and is, there has to be a viable strategy against anything in the game. This is arguable, but that's what i like to have.
Yet again, from a mag sorc's perspective this is all irrelevant since mag sorcs are equally effective in defense against all threats in cyrodiil.
Your stance is to zerg v 1 me, press wards to survive and be bold enough to share your hypocritical view about the subject you don't understand deep enough on the forums:)Drummerx04 wrote: »When I discussed this with him, he told me something to the effect of, "I shouldn't have to put a skill on my bar just to counter stealth." Of course drawing the parallel of requiring me to put a skill on my bar to counter dodge roll is lost on him.
This part is easy. I slot shieldbreaker with oblivion damage glyphs on infused weapons. Adapt. Then tell me about changing your build to counters a simple attack:)Drummerx04 wrote: »And the addon itself is pretty much bull. The fact that someone can be sitting on siege in the back of a siege line, looking at the keep and get a notification well in advance that someone offscreen it attacking them is really just not okay.
This is as much ok as attacking somebody from behind who 'is sitting on siege in the back of a siege line' and expect an easy kill solely because you performed a complex maneuver of, well, 'coming up from behind':)Drummerx04 wrote: »Out of the current capabilities of the addon after the API change, this one is the one I have a problem with.
I firmly believe that if you have problems killing a guy that 'is sitting on siege in the back of a siege line' then you got outplayed by the said guy and you should reevaluate your gearing/speccing/playstyle decisions. Maybe slot a magelight? Who knows, right?:)If someone should have to slot an ability on their bar to counter stealth, then you should have to slot the ability to enter stealth on your bar.
Exactly:)
The ease of defense has to be at least comparable to the ease of offense.It's an unfortunate side effect that it harms sorcs a lot, but honestly I don't see sorcs having a hard time at all in this game. You play a class with overwhelming mechanics. Using it to counter stealthers and the horde of Xv1ers spamming javelin and flame reach is the best thing anyone could do for this game.
Nothing to add here:)Rohamad_Ali wrote: »@Dorrino Can you make a add on that tells me when someone is in my house ? I want to catch whoever is extinguishing the Night Mothers candles .

✭✭Half the 'skilled' 1vXers and small groups on EU are using it. Probably even have some explanation like Derra here for why it is their right to gain such advantage. If you see solo magsorc taunting around zerg highways, you are almost guaranteed he is using it. Stam for CC break and dodgerolls is precious resource, gotta max it most effectively amirite
Remove it and many of them would probably be unable to play anymore. That would be very bad for population! /sEdited by SodanTok on July 18, 2017 8:58PM2 -

I use the addon, as an overall I think miat's is an excellent addon (the 3d icons for keeps, bridges etc are excellent) and I think Dorrino has done a great job on it.
I just don't think a function in the api that tells people when they are being cast on with crystal frags is something the api should provide. Again... you can chalk it up to "I don't like it", but it's really information that shouldn't be broadcast to other players unless they are watching for it.
That does bring up the entire ganked from stealth issue.... I would rather stealth be broken whenever you start an attack if that's what's being rallied against.
It's actually pretty amazing that ZOS has allowed for this nonsense for so long...

GloryClass RepresentativeLike the addon or not, props to Miat for sharing his addon with the entire PC community.
Anyone with access to the same API could create the same addon. Rather than keep it to himself (and others), he shared it so that ZOS either has to accept that there is this sort of API ability in game or make changes. I'd rather have someone sharing this addon so that all have access to its potential than a small niche of players having it (and I say that not having used it).mDK will rise again.

✭Here is the thing about Miat, he's not doing anything ZOS isnt allowing him to do. They have to be aware of his shenanigans and have done the minimal amount to affect the integrity of the PVP because of him. He isnt the only player, we used to have people blatantly exploiting all the time (remember the clown that was in perm mist form?) we've had popular streamers use other accounts on and on.
The remedy for this guy is simple, players have to zerg him. Over and over and over and over and over and over and over until he hates coming out and quits. Zos isnt going to do it, the problem is which one of you slap happy slappers is going to be able to corral and organize the filthy stinking casuals into doing this?
The answer is none, nada, youre not going to do a dam thing about it but whine on the forums until someone fixes a problem youre to lazy to fix yourself.
