    So what is this change about ? I always thought that this skill is already dodge-able & block-able on live server...

    Dark flare spam coming to your local pvp campaign

    Solar Barrage is not a Dark Flare.

    Dark flare is probably slowest skill to land and easiest to dodge or get to LOS, it doesn't work well 1vx open world.

    I think they fixed the unmorphed ability (which is undodgeable).

    Edit: Derra too fast :disappointed:

    Good.

    Can we get it to be reflectable or at the very least deflectale too. Because reflect is quite bad in its current form, even with the last fix.

    Though real question, how do you reflect a diving bird? Blocking+dodging I can see, unless you are made up of a rubber ball?

    The bird is so incensed that the Warden has thrown it smack into a reflective surface that it turns on its summoner in a fit of rage.

    Great change to Dive, so many zergspammers was just sitting in their masses targeting ppl with this "skill" spamming them mindlessly with 4-6k undodgeable dmg. Good to have that gone. Now they have to time burst and cc just like everyone else.

    it just flies back to it's owner? Logically easier than reflecting a huge ball of flame tbh

    love the notes btw :) the 'rules' is nice to see, & being pushed out across any skills/abilities that breach them.

    Nice! Especially like that you revise Blocking and dodging ruleset to be more consistent. Birds finally dodgeable, as they should be.
    And thanks a lot for bringing back 20s synergy cooldowns!

    As for Outfit system, still no hide option for other pieces than head?

    So 2 unblockable undodgeable Attacks Searing Strike and Power lash. Undodgeable unblockable CC. Undodgeable unblockable Ultimate.

    About time.

    Sad part is that mDK (and stamDK) had nothing more besides that.

    Not even a bone was thrown in turn, the class just got gutted.

    The last 2 patches have killed DKs forever... ZoS, just take away the class and let us change our current chars to any other class in the game...

    Ok with all the skills being made undodgable can we now get a cool down on shuffle or at least fix it so a medium armor wearer doesn't have so much up time on dodge, dodge, dodge, dodge?
    Now the balance will swing the other way if not.

    This will unify the Off Balance mechanic into a consistent experience. You now have the same amount of time to take advantage of a target being Off Balance, regardless of which ability activated the effect.

    LOL!!!

    You just forgot to take off 3 sec cooldown from Power Whip....

    Same way you would reflect a fireball, or you can conjure a bird out of the ability to run. Game magic.

    But for realism, smack it with your wing/shield hard.

    Thank goodness for the Warden bird change. Looking forward to the update, for many reasons but how many more updates before the Cyrodiil changes and adjustments become bigger than this?

    To all those complaining about dodgable strikes/whip. Stop. Whip I can see a reason it would be undodgable, because it requires two counterable attacks beforehand, but strikes has no reason. They were also both bugs, and it is a good change for med armour users.

    Full support for increasing strikes range. Imo both foss and strikes should be equalised to 10 with whip and breath. Its quite clunky to use against moving targets.

    Unfortunately yes "Dive: The damage from this ability and its morphs can now be dodged."

    Can't believe that. My MagWarden is *** in PvE Damage and now you steal his Bird-Attack in PvP. What should I do in PvP then? Be a healer or tank?

    Should switch to a twohand-stamina then for PvP... seems to be better. Bye Bye my Warden.
