...magicka classes have to use dawn breakers with no magic damage.
change one, change them all!
Magicka has more ultimate morphs in this game than stamina does.
In non CP PvP everyone can use every ultimate, since only CP effects which ultimate is better or worse for Magicka or Stamina.
Also there are some really strong counter towards the Bow Ultimate, DK's Reflect and the Sword and Board ultimate can reflect all of it. Used those counters myself and seen people nuke themselves to death. Can't do anything but block and LOS the Soul Assault.
I'm all against stamina supremacy. But I can clearly see, that the Bow ult is not good for what it costs and does.
Comparing it to soul assault is just too obvious. Soul Assault is pretty bad and the bow ult is even worse.
The thing is, that soul assault looks good on paper when compared to other burst ults like meteor and dawnbreaker. It deals the same or more damage during the first second. But it still never achieves to kill.
You can't use other abilities while channeling SA and for bow ulti you actually can, that changes a lot. Try to SA while you are in 1vX, not that great. Its good ulti against medium armor builds who are built to rely on roll dodge for defense, but in other situations as I mentioned, not that great, therefore I don't see it being too OP. Everything needs to have a counter, don't expect to be godly as a medium armor build.There should be counter for everything and SA counters these builds just right.
