Its the sets that other people are running...
I made a thread in the PvP Section about the number of Defensive Sets people are using https://forums.elderscrollsonline.com/en/discussion/418912/to-those-who-wear-light-armor-how-many-defensive-sets-are-you-currently-wearing#latest and from this (albeit small) sample size, it sure looks like a lot of people are running glass canon builds that rely solely on a single defensive mechanism (like Cloak or Shield Spam) to survive...
These builds don't have a high health pool and once that single layer of defense (wether it be Cloak or Shields) are penetrated, they have nothing left to save them from death other than running away...
In other words, these people are dying to Sloads because of build decisions...
These people don't want to adapt their builds at all; they want to run what they've always run and rely on whatever sole defensive mechanism they've been using to allow them to win fights, and/or 1vX whenever they want...

No, but the real counter to it is just to kill your opponent faster than they kill you. Obviously.
No, it is not. I've had sload's on my death recap some times, damage like 2-4k. If that's "destroying PVP", then you have other problems besides Sload's. No, I don't use Sload's, never have and probably never will.

Look at me I’m another EP tank running with a 20 man zerg and sloads doesn’t bother me so it’s not OP.

Physical Resist...
Last I looked, there is a lot of physical damage in this game, so you can never have too much of this as a result...
2975 Physical Resist equates to around 4.5% damage negation against Physical attacks with 100% uptime, and you think that's mediocre!?

I've passively dodged Incap on multiple occasions, and so I avoided 6-10k damage, being Major Defiled, and Hard Stunned...all at once.

So from the sets u use u are a tank in a 20 man zerg with little to 0 knowledge about competetive pvp in this game.
U are using only tank sets and with this u will even have a hard time killing guards without your zerg. But u can prove me wrong ofc. I have no problem to duel u. I am on PC Eu but we can also meet on pts if u are from NA. Just throw me an @ in forum or ingame with @gnozo. This goes for every forum warrior here. I will take my time so u can show me how professional u are in this game.
People are suggesting to run purge in battlegrounds. It costs 7k magicka. And thats all the magicka i have in nocp on a stamina build. So after using purge wich also dont grant to remove sloads cause only 2 negative effects my magicka is completly empty. So i cant use any utility skills anymore. No streak, surge, dark deal or vol armor, igneos shield or cloak, fear, shadow image
Thanks for the awesome tips my professional forum warriors.
Prove me wrong. Lets meet on pts. We gonna duel and u Show me ur awesome build wich can survive sloads, bleeding and major defile while still being able to sustain in long fights and still have decent damage to kill the average player.
I am really looking forward to these duels. Pls

Ur knowledge about in depth pvp mechanics is nauseating.
My duel offer still stands mate
100% agreed man. Even ZOS can't be this oblivious to balance.You don't have to explain anything to me about the 'why'. I was just pointing out the facts and why the guy was wrong.It doesn't do 400 damage. It does exactly the amount of damage on the tooltip. It is oblivion damage, which means it isn't mitigated by anything: resistances, damage reduction, mistform, shields, block, dodge, cloak and NOT EVEN battlespirit. So the damage isn't even halved. So what you basically have is a viper dot on steriods doing twice the amount of damage and it is not mitigatable. It can be stacked on you ad infinium and eats up all your healing. It is a disgusting set, especially in this defile meta.gamerguy757 wrote: »Maybe I'm being dumb...but I looked up Sloads online...how is a set that does 400 damage in cyrodil cause so much problems? Can someone explain what this set is doing that is such an issue?
Battle spirit doesn't reduce Oblivion Damage because Oblivion damage isn't modified by anything...It would be absolutely pointless to do that as the devs can set it exactly how much they want it to do.
Also Sloads is basically doing the same damage that Overwhelming Surge does, the only difference is one applies as status effect and one goes through Shields.
And no, on a build with decent damage reduction and resistances overwhelming surge deals a lot less damage to your opponent than sloads. It also doesn't stick so if the target gets out of range the damage dissapears. Overwhelming is a strong set, but not overperforming because it can actually he countered/mitigated.
It also has a condition to proc in that it has to be a class skill, which mean it’s limited to moslty magicka builds and won’t proc of things like siege. Sloads procs on any type of damage at all and works on any and all builds. It procs of bow light attacks or siege damage. It’s far too accessible and is unprecedented in this game. It is a set meant to trump other sets and sell content. ZOS is aware of its overuse and in the past this has led to nerfs, but they’ve statedthey won’t ans it’s because Summerset is new. Mark my words, once summerset has faded a little Sloads will be adjusted and the next set will come out.

Running Shields, Major Evasion, while sporting high base resists simutaneously is amazingly effective...
But I don't expect small minds to realize it...
Lets look at spectre's eye for starters: Mediocre 2-4 piece bonuses. Uptime probably lower than 40%, but lets be generous and say 45%. That gives you on average 6,75% mitigation from the set, but it doesn't work against aoe or channeled stuff (like most ultimates for example).

I am fully aware of Taylors thread (I posted a lengthly post about the merits of Spectre's Eye there as a matter of fact) and your opinion on the 2-4 set piece bonus's I disagree with:
Physical Resist...
Last I looked, there is a lot of physical damage in this game, so you can never have too much of this as a result...
2975 Physical Resist equates to around 4.5% damage negation against Physical attacks with 100% uptime, and you think that's mediocre!?
LoL...
Max Magicka...
I am a Magicka Templar, so this is always good for me...
Max Health...
Sloads cannot be mitigated, so the only "defense" to it is to have a high Health Pool, excellent Self Healing, and/or high Health Regen...
Spectre's Eye enhances your Health Pool significantly...
So looking at the bonus's, I see nothing but goodness; some might not agree with that, but those bonus's add to survivability, and that's always a good thing in PvP...
As pertains to Spectre Eye's ability to mitigate damage, on average, yes there are other sets that will outperform it, but Spectre's Eye brings something to the table that other sets like Riposte's and Transmutation cant match and that's the ability to completely avoid an attack (and that attacks secondary effects like Poison and CC)...
I've passively dodged Incap on multiple occasions, and so I avoided 6-10k damage, being Major Defiled, and Hard Stunned...all at once.
Not many other sets can match something like that, and IMHO, it more than makes up for the damage mitigation over time differential that some of the other sets have over it...
In conclusion, I feel the set is much better than its rep suggests...
So from the sets u use u are a tank in a 20 man zerg with little to 0 knowledge about competetive pvp in this game.
U are using only tank sets and with this u will even have a hard time killing guards without your zerg. But u can prove me wrong ofc. I have no problem to duel u. I am on PC Eu but we can also meet on pts if u are from NA. Just throw me an @ in forum or ingame with @gnozo. This goes for every forum warrior here. I will take my time so u can show me how professional u are in this game.
People are suggesting to run purge in battlegrounds. It costs 7k magicka. And thats all the magicka i have in nocp on a stamina build. So after using purge wich also dont grant to remove sloads cause only 2 negative effects my magicka is completly empty. So i cant use any utility skills anymore. No streak, surge, dark deal or vol armor, igneos shield or cloak, fear, shadow image
Thanks for the awesome tips my professional forum warriors.
Prove me wrong. Lets meet on pts. We gonna duel and u Show me ur awesome build wich can survive sloads, bleeding and major defile while still being able to sustain in long fights and still have decent damage to kill the average player.
I am really looking forward to these duels. Pls
" I will use my duelling cheese build with master axe bleed, defiles 2x dot poisons and sload´s to prove that you´re a bad player and that your build is bad"
lmao xD

Hahahaha. Okay, I knew you often post unpopular opinions, but this is entirely another dimension. Game is getting more and more balanced... give me a break100% agreed man. Even ZOS can't be this oblivious to balance.You don't have to explain anything to me about the 'why'. I was just pointing out the facts and why the guy was wrong.It doesn't do 400 damage. It does exactly the amount of damage on the tooltip. It is oblivion damage, which means it isn't mitigated by anything: resistances, damage reduction, mistform, shields, block, dodge, cloak and NOT EVEN battlespirit. So the damage isn't even halved. So what you basically have is a viper dot on steriods doing twice the amount of damage and it is not mitigatable. It can be stacked on you ad infinium and eats up all your healing. It is a disgusting set, especially in this defile meta.gamerguy757 wrote: »Maybe I'm being dumb...but I looked up Sloads online...how is a set that does 400 damage in cyrodil cause so much problems? Can someone explain what this set is doing that is such an issue?
Battle spirit doesn't reduce Oblivion Damage because Oblivion damage isn't modified by anything...It would be absolutely pointless to do that as the devs can set it exactly how much they want it to do.
Also Sloads is basically doing the same damage that Overwhelming Surge does, the only difference is one applies as status effect and one goes through Shields.
And no, on a build with decent damage reduction and resistances overwhelming surge deals a lot less damage to your opponent than sloads. It also doesn't stick so if the target gets out of range the damage dissapears. Overwhelming is a strong set, but not overperforming because it can actually he countered/mitigated.
It also has a condition to proc in that it has to be a class skill, which mean it’s limited to moslty magicka builds and won’t proc of things like siege. Sloads procs on any type of damage at all and works on any and all builds. It procs of bow light attacks or siege damage. It’s far too accessible and is unprecedented in this game. It is a set meant to trump other sets and sell content. ZOS is aware of its overuse and in the past this has led to nerfs, but they’ve statedthey won’t ans it’s because Summerset is new. Mark my words, once summerset has faded a little Sloads will be adjusted and the next set will come out.
ZOS can balance. This game is getting more and more balanced.

To show that u have 0 clue about pvp mechanics and ur Arguments mentioned here are completely Trash. No Need to show it in forum cause everyone with basic knowledge about pvp will see this. I want to show it to u.
Ur build is just puuure tank build with 20 ppl behind ur back. Ofc u can ignore sloads.
