Just slot an execute and spam away, how I get my kills on Sorc, spam mages fury at low health players

first u make post how easy to excute with sorc
then u read about sorc nerf in patchnotes

It does seem pretty advantageous for Sorcs.

First they hide timed event achievements behind pay walls and now this....

gg ZOS

Ohhhh, PvP = Player vs Player, how you expect to kill that player as a tank or healer?

Go in Trials if you wanna tank or heal, both are useless in PvP if you are full spec on one, you need to be a mix of dps/tank/support on both healer and tank, not just one, PvP is not vMol.

50 kb isnt bad over a week. I play MagDK and I get around 20 each session. A lot of them are just from Talons. If they were going on just assist kills the number should be much much higher, around 1000.

50 Killing Blows shouldn't be too hard... unless, of course, your class is "unique" for not having an execute or any way to use an execute... and most of your "special" class abilities are easily purged.

@Wrobel thanks.

Do you think everyone is a templar or something

1. Templars ability has a synergy that purges
2. Purge is available to all players

1. not everyne hangs out with templars, nor these are spaming purge
2. a prohibitly expensive skill, i would wish my opponent would run it.

Well I guess I am not gonna get it on my four main characters.

50 killing blows is easy af.

If it wasn't killing blows they i'd just use an random aoe and get it in like 2 fights.


If your really that bad at pvp and have no idea what your doing just buy some fire trebs or even cold fire trebs and use it on a zerg.

50 kill contributions would take about 20 minutes, it is supposed to be an achievement not a handout.

Yes, because the achievement for "Capture a resource" and "Capture a IC Flag" are hard work.

So because some of the achievements are easy they should all be easy?

Also, 50 killing blows over multiple days isn't exactly hard.

Most of the time getting killing blows has nothing to do with skill, its just luck you got the last blow in.

Also I never said it was hard. It's just a stupid achievement. Should have been 50 kills, or even 100 kills, would have made way more sense for the various play styles (healer, tank, etc).

Actually I think the worst achievement of the event is the "WIn a Battleground" one. I had the quest for winning 3 of them. Won first two in a row and then went on a 12 round losing streak. I keep ending up in 2 player groups vs 4 players on both opposite teams. Just ends up having more to do with luck than actual skill.

It's a PvP event achievement and so far all I've seen is people who don't PvP a lot complaining about it. This is because PvPers know it won't take much time at all to get 50 killing blows. Slotting an execute if your class has one, coldfire seige into a zerg, pour oil on a zerg are just some of the ways to get killing blows as part of a zerg. Or, you can just kill people by yourself and you will get the killing blow.

And just one last tip for those who truly believe this will be hard, annoying or just stupid to get. Get a friend in another alliance. Go to IC, or get a camp and put it out of the way and kill your friend 50 times and yay! I achieved something!

If you cant get 5 kills per battleground match, somthing is very wrong with your build!

It's difficult when your a healer, but if it wasn't for ones heals you would lose the round.

Slot a single damage skill.

as a solo support / tank in pvp on a DK this achievement is figuratively impossible for me.

I'm not a go for broke dps character, a procblade, beamplar, or KSing Sorc.

had it been 500 kill contribution I would have been fine, so would all those healers and other players out there, it would have taken some time but you can make it.

but trying to run people down for kills? fighting all the aforementioned builds on a class with no burst, no execute, and a build designed around helping others?

nope



I have therefore enlisted the aid of some nice guildies to make new level 10's and let me farm them till I get 50 kills



I didn't want to do this, I just wanted to play, but the method I would be forced to play in order to grab the achievement is in far to specific of a playstyle to be conducive with myself, my class, my build, and my playstyle.

epic fail ZOS, you could have done that one better, its just an event, it does not have to be so restrictive, that was dumb.

As 'support/ tank' build.

E.g. a guy with 40k~ hp who has 0 damage and just holds block and expects people to hit them.

I'm sure you can get some siege and drop block for 2 seconds to spam it into a zerg. You don't to cheese the achievement.

I'm a little confused what the problem is here. 50 killing blows is pretty much child's play no matter what class you're on, and when you account for a large influx of non-PvPers it becomes even easier. If it was just 50 kill contributions people would just roll with a zerg and get the achievement in 10 seconds.

Of course it will be easier when a lot of non-PvPers will be there.
For PvPers.
And if you are one of those non-PvPers? Who didn't PvP before and will not PvP after, but wants achievements/something that those achievements give? That sounds not so easy.

For me this event sounds like a lot of suffering. Not because doing something unusual for me, that's not a problem, but because it would be really hard and absolutely not fun. And, yes, that's something not right with my build, because it is not for PvP and killstealing. Damn, that's even not some normal build, but it's enough for quests, exploring and doing public dungeons solo, and usually I don't need and want more. And changing absolutely everything, from skills and attributes to armor, for only some days and never again... that would be stupid and I don't have money enough to waste like this. PvE events could take some time, but they were not difficult both for PvE and PvP players. Not very interesting, maybe, but not difficult. And this event...
