    You can easily spot bad players these days because they support the idea that your armor should do damage for you. Oh, and just in case you missed it, here's a (non-exhaustive) list of "balancing" decisions that have directly targeted the good players so that the younglings like yourself don't get exposed so often:

    - removal of dynamic ultimate generation
    - "auto-targeting" of gap closers so they never miss
    - adding snares to gap closers
    - aoe caps
    - adding stacking costs to streak and dodge roll
    - shield duration nerf
    - wings nerf
    - PotL checking damage from all sources
    - poisons
    - proc sets
    - earthgore

    Now youngling, your time has come to list the buffs rich has given to the 1vX'ers over the last 4 years.

    1vXers can cry me a river. They try to take a game not designed for 1 player to take on a group and and start crying if the group reverses it and it becomes Xv1. Sorry if your made up rules don't fly.

    It's not that 1vXers try to take the game designed around map objective based RvRvR, it's that the game has plenty of subpar players who believe Sloads is balanced and make 1vX possible.

    What logical people want is extremely strong mechanics like unmitigated Oblivion damage to be more thoughtfully implemented. Sload by itself will not make just any bad in a weak build god, but combined with other sets and players using it make it way over the top.

    Sload needs two changes to be made more "balanced" if you can call it that. The condition to proc the set is too generous as it can proc off any damage (even siege), it should be changed to something more restrictive (similar to how mechanical acuity was changed). The second change is that the set should not stack on itself, preventing groups of players running the set from cheesing people.

    If you think you need Sload to deal with "overpowered builds" you have a lot to learn.

    let me be very clear.
    i do not wear sloads set, i think it is weak, and does almost no damage at all, especially when other sets worn are much more damage producing.

    i think "overpowered Builds" most definitely are eso's problem because when i see 1 player go out and able to kill an entire zerg of 15 or more people.
    i do not think that person is skilled, no, i think something is Broken in eso's PvP.

    has nothing to do with an armor set.

    You keep repeating this statement "so you are telling me you cannot handle around 5000 damage during a fight in 6 seconds". You are blatantly ignoring the fact that the 5-6K damage cannot be mitigated and can be stacked.

    Then you say something like this "i do not wear sloads set, i think it is weak, and does almost no damage at all, especially when other sets worn are much more damage producing". If you really don't use the set and actually think it's weak, you wouldn't be complaining about "overpowered builds" would you?
    i think "overpowered Builds" most definitely are eso's problem because when i see 1 player go out and able to kill an entire zerg of 15 or more people.

    On one hand you're vehemently defending this broken set not wanting it to be nerfed, claiming it's weak because logic. On the other hand you're not using this perfectly broken zerg set, and complaining about strong players with balanced builds you cannot beat.

    When are you going to start making sense?

    the problem with eso is overpowered Builds.
    if 4 people are attacking someone, then that person should die.

    BEHOLD

    KING THELON came from Auridon to Cyrodiil
    To be baptised in blood and fire upon the mountaintop.
    And He said to the younglings below:
    "Let it be so now, for thus it is fitting for us
    To fulfill all righteousness."
    Then he consented to his trial by fire.

    And when KING THELON returned from the mountaintop,
    Immediately he went down to the water,
    And BEHOLD,
    The heavens opened up to Him,
    And He saw the spirit of the 1vX'er
    Descending upon Him like a dove,
    And coming to rest on Him.

    And BEHOLD,
    A voice from the mountaintop said,
    "This is my beloved KING THELON,
    Tamer of the Mantikora
    With whom I am well pleased."

    Then KING THELON left his armies,
    And journeyed into the wilderness
    To be tempted by the zergbads.
    And after forty days and forty nights,
    He was hungry.
    And the zergbads said to Him,
    "If you are a true 1vX'er,
    Command these stones to become bread."

    But KING THELON answered,
    "1vX'ers do not live by bread alone,
    But by the tears that fall from the face of zerglings"
    1vXers can cry me a river.

    Do you seek the tears of others,
    Or detest the source of your own?

    Then the zergbads took KING THELON to the city,
    And sat him on the pinnacle of the temple.
    And they said unto Him,
    "If you are a true 1vX'er,
    Throw yourself off the rooftop,
    For the Angels of Balance will save you.
    On their hands they will bear you up,
    Lest you crush your crown upon the stone."

    But KING THELON said unto the zergbads,
    "Again it is written,
    That you shall not put Angels to the test."

    And so the zergbads took KING THELON to the mountaintop,
    And showed Him all the kingdom's of Tamriel.
    And the zergbads said,
    "All these I will give to you,
    If you will but bow down and join our mindless blob."

    Then KING THELON said unto the zergbads,
    "Be gone zergbads! For it is written,
    That KING THELON shall be crowned
    Stealer of Scrolls and Saviour of Souls
    And shall remain unscathed by your wretched blob."

    Then the zergbads returned to their mindless blob,
    And the Angels came and sang to Him.

    Do you mean the people posting screenshots with Sload's as the killer, or the people using Sload's and the actual killscreens you keep getting?

    Either way, Sload's isn't a huge deal. Invest in some self-healing, or a purge, and be smart about how you engage the user.

    If I have to change my approach to combat a certain playstyle or archetype, that's more engaging than facerolling everyone with similar builds.

    Well played JUDAS Helviaryn. You won't be fooling us!

    I especially like this set because for friggen once in this game's history of all the imbalance and cancer , for once, one of those cancer mechanics is actually hurting the top dogs of PvP instead of the already weak ones.

    You can easily spot bad players these days because they support the idea that your armor should do damage for you. Oh, and just in case you missed it, here's a (non-exhaustive) list of "balancing" decisions that have directly targeted the good players so that the younglings like yourself don't get exposed so often:

    - removal of dynamic ultimate generation
    - "auto-targeting" of gap closers so they never miss
    - adding snares to gap closers
    - aoe caps
    - adding stacking costs to streak and dodge roll
    - shield duration nerf
    - wings nerf
    - PotL checking damage from all sources
    - poisons
    - proc sets
    - earthgore

    Now youngling, your time has come to list the buffs rich has given to the 1vX'ers over the last 4 years.

    1vXers can cry me a river. They try to take a game not designed for 1 player to take on a group and and start crying if the group reverses it and it becomes Xv1. Sorry if your made up rules don't fly.

    well said.

    I always knew that someone asking for so many nerfs don't want to get good.

    i wasn't asking for a nerf.

    Nothing you say has any credit. You are literally complaining about people running "overpowered builds" that you cannot Xv1, which is the complete opposite as you saying..
    i dont wear sloads, and i don't have problems when hit by it.

    You cannot be both magically immune to the effects of having Sload stacked on you, and also complaining about "overpowered builds" that you cannot Xv1.

    You make literally no sense. You're angry at 1vXers having the capability to 1vX bad players, and at the same time trying to pretend you don't have a problem with Sloads. The only way you don't have a problem with Sloads is if you either aren't playing PvP in ESO or you're zerg surfing so hard that you're constantly getting cleansed.
