Medium armor Aoe damage reduction passive?

Bigevilpeter · May 2018

Problem with stamina dds is that they dont have enough survivability in trials to dish out good damage as magika. Blade cloack is helping a lot, but its not enough in the newer trials.

My suggestion let medium armor have aoe damage reduction on 5 pieace and let blade cloak not be as manditory, but make it another addition if needed in very hard trials

Medium armor needs to be buffed in general.

idea
put the sneak bonus from med armor into legidermain
make the aoe damage reduction the sneak bonus in med armor replacement

yes that would be a great idea, but stamina really need to ba able to stand and do their damage

AOE DMG reduction is already in Dual weld via quick cloak.

Here's what they should do:
- shuffle should have it's immunity to snares/immobilze increased to 8 seconds. This way medium armor builds don't need to run forward momentum, the burst heal from rally is enough of a balance.
- crit chance to surpase LA a tad. LA excels in easy penetration sources so it makes sense MA should hold easier gained crit chance.
- add more Sprint cost reduction.

Then it should be on part with light armor.

Dude you went completely PvP here, none of this benifits pve in anyway, besides stamina are already good in pvp and got buffed making 2h 2 set slots

Simple penetration. Oh wait we got bleed that does pure damage on the target. But there isn’t much access to do with bleed for skills beside the weapons, sets, and passives beside weapons.

Remove 5pc from all 3 armor weights and replace ot all with a per peice effect allowing a true mix match for desired effect.

Example: change 12% wep dmg agility to 3% wep dmg per peice 5pc gets 15% wep dmg and can mix in some heavy for per peice constitution also. Or go solid medium for 19% wep dmg bonus. It would allow us to mix it up and have things like 3/4 armor builds rather than the normal 2/5 and let us get usage out of undaunted passives easier.

This will help the diversity but some players will argue it will be either imbalanced or ruin some thier builds.

The need to buff it carefully tho, Im leaning on critical resistance if wearing 5 or more pieces of medium armor. Like 500 or so..
