Why hybrid is bad
LeagueTroll
✭✭✭✭✭
Seeing a lot pro hybrid posts lately. Things like unlink dmg from max attributes. Personally, I am very against hybrid build. It is just too complicated. If max mag no longer affect mag dps. No one will run inner light, mag will have 2 more skills added to rotation. Complex rotation will only benefit higher skilled players more. Most of the ppl who cry about their crappy hybrid build not viable now will likely cry more if legit hybrid is viable. These ppl can’t even do easy stuff, most of them just want to be able to spam both snipe and breath of life.

✭✭✭✭So because people stink at pure builds my hybrid should pull 12 thousand damage per second less than my pure build? I'm not following the chain of logic here.
Inb4 "hybrids should do less damage": absolutely, but more like 5k less, not more than double that. People (correctly) moan over warden doing 5k less than other dps specs.7 -

Anyway, I think you would hear a lot less crying for hybrids if Stamina and Magicka were balanced a lot more closely. Right now, Stamina is a lot more powerful except in a zerg.#CAREBEARMASTERRACE1 -

I said in another post that my personal opinion is that hybrids should do 30-40% less then a pure spec.
If the pure spec is doing 30k then that would be 9k-12k less so that's about right.
Hybrids should be much less since they tend to be more surviveable. Pure specs become glass cannons in a lot of situations and need to have substantially more DPS to show for it.
No to hybrids being anywhere near a pure spec.2 -

My play style is easy stuff and can work. Not complex stuff take forever and still do 70% of what top tier do. And hybrid is obv more complex.

Read what i said. Skills like inner light ppl just slot for stat. No one will slot it if dmg no longer link to max stat.

I don't play those games anymore. I like that in ESO I know pure specs are ahead in most DPS meters which is how it should be in my opinion. Make a hybrid for more survivability but understand your DPS should be a lot less because of that.
I love the argument that other games do it and it works fine. If they are fine then why aren't people who want hybrids playing them? Stop trying to change ESO into those other games and just play those other games LOL. For me when hybrids were more viable in ESO it was much more broken, now that pure specs do what they are intended, it makes me like this game more and more. I understand wanting to be able to do a lot of different builds, but lets not sacrifice a pure spec in the process. If you want to play a Beastmaster or Shadowknight that is just fine, go play Everquest.1 -

I love the argument that other people are trying to change ESO into hybrid friendly. If it was never meant to be, why was it originally? Stop trying to change ESO into a purist paradise while other people are merely wanting back the game they originally purchased.
It was changed because of whiners and now you're criticizing whining as a means of restoring it.Edited by LordSemaj on February 4, 2018 8:07PM3 -
