Every update has more and more damage nerfs. At some point you might as well just change PvP to carebear land considering how hard it is to kill other players with anything other than group numbers.

My favorite damage nerf still has to be the nerf to the sharpened trait. While yes it was pretty ridiculous how over-performing this trait was versus the other traits, instead of bringing everything else up to sharpened's level they decide to cut it in half effectively dropping everyone's damage by 5%. Excellently done.

What's yours? There are lots and lots of good ones available!

    That time when they nerfed bows so you can't sit with them cocked any more, taking all the fun out of using bows. Ah, good times.

    Selenes. I’m not huge into proc sets but even I can see that set was killed. Not totally useless in PvP mind you but SO easy to evade and it doesn’t even turn with you anymore.
    Hey everyone! Look! It's a signature!

    When they nerfed the NB skill Teleport Strike (Ambush/Lotus Fan).
    Oh wait ... that hasn't happened yet. That's on the schedule for next time, because they apparently hate me and everything I love to play.

    I'm truly going to be enjoying the upcoming change to the Elemental Rage's reduction in diameter from 10m to 8m as a PVE-only player. Thanks PVP crybabies :)
    Closely followed by he Crystal Frag nerf

    The DK passive nerfs from a while ago, along with heavy armor changes and black rose nerf. Even for ZOS that was just over the top as if they had no idea how these things worked together to be OP and that nerfing all of them wasn’t necessary.

    My actual favorite was the crystal frags nerf, straightened that cancerous fotm phase right out. What I still don’t understand though is why the warden sub assault is allowed to have a stun of frags cannot. Sub assault is pretty much just as bad.

    The change to Proc sets not being able to crit (sucks for PvE, once again lowering damage) was funny.

    My favorite was the nerf to ultimate cap from 1000 to 500, when it first happened, Molag Kena’s Proc would prevent you from being able to even use the Werewolf Ultimate since it’s cost was increased higher than the cap.

    It actually was nerfed a long time ago. They are just nerfing it more.

    That time they nerfed sweeps heal because of major mending...

    Just to take away our major mending and give no love to sweeps...

    Sweeps gets a damage boost this patch which means a heal boost again. Maybe not as strong but still something.

    I’ll just point out that on the pts, sweeps is currently doing less damage then on live... so yeah, that is a thing.

    I don't recall ever seeing a nerf elemental rage thread. There have been many need EOTS threads, which is heavily used in pvp.
