FFS, just redesign overload

As much as I love the "unlimited powah" ultimate, it's flipflopped between absolute crap and completely overpowered several times now, and ZOS seems completely incompetent as to how to fix that.

Now nothing that actually applies to light or heavy attacks consistently applies to overload attacks. Empower apparently isnt going to work on it anymore, nor is imbue. If that's the case, redesign the damn ability already so we arent stuck using weaponless light and heavy attacks for an ultimate. This ability isnt even able to proc sets that activate on ultimate use anymore.

Get consistent or find a new game plan.

    It still benefits from empower and BA. Its just imbue/ele wont work with it.

    Unless they forgot to mention empower not working with it anymore in the newest patch notes

    Still, that's more inconsistency. Both imbue and empower effect light attacks, and both of them stack on every other form of light attack - but not overload. Having one of them work and the other not is a direct contradiction of the abilities in question and just further demonstrates that ZOS has no idea what the hell they want overload to do.

    To be honest, i love it as an ultimate. It's different.

    The 3rd part is awesome. And i like the action, and i think.it's balanced in that most good players dodge them. It's a potatoe cannon pure and simple.

    Granted the new skills are going to need balance but hey you can hit 35k on a dummy at present shield bashing so its not like overload is the only issue.

    I just don't want it to be OP so everyone runs it. It's cool that it's Niche.
