What is the MOST OP thing Right Now (v2.0)

    Have literally quit playing because of rune cage bugging/being unblock/dodgable. Then slap sloads on top of that and I can’t seem to pvp for me than 30 mins then I just log off.

    Whoever tf is running the combat changes and keeps putting proc sets in the game for zos has the intellectual capacity of a gopher when it comes to pvp

    Best defense: Shield Stacking
    Best Burst: Curse+Frags+Mage's Fury
    Tied for best mobility: Streak
    Best CC: Rune Cage

    This class is the very definition of overtuned, and since you can stack Curses they are the best Xv1 class, and Shield Stacking makes them the best 1v1 class.

    No choice for Argonian?

    What's wrong with argonian you sacrifice damage and Max stats for sustain and healing. That seems pretty balanced

    As someone who plays argonian on all specs for style reasons, i have to say argonian is in the current form too strong.
    It's not totally op, it won't make a bad player good or a threat like the rest of the things mentioned here but running argonian will often enhance a good player more than running a different race.

    Argonians are just a good choice on anything but aren't bis for everything.
    Orc wins on stamsorc, altmer wins by far on magsorc, dunmer is better on magdk imo, redguard and bosmer are better on stamnb.

    For magnb and magplar argonian are just bis however.
    I think however a huge reason why people say argonians are op is because
    1. they are great for 1vX with decent sustain and good survivability and people who get 1vXed often cry the most
    2. argonians are same as khajiit more visible than other races, when you are fighting a Human race you can't exactly tell which one you are facing, at least not as easy as seeing that it's an argonian.

    In the end i think reducing the heal to 4% taken and dealt as well as reducing the health to 7% then argonians would be better balanced.

    But there are other races that need a buff first before argonians, redguards or altmer need a nerf, namely Nord, imperial and breton

    It's the defile resistance really that needs to go. Something that so dramatically affects every other race but argonians have an immunity against. Honestly you could buff the healing done and taken to 6%, if their OP defile immunity was removed.

    they are only immune to defile coming from disease Damage.
    that is:
    incap: oh wait applies defile anyway
    lethal arrow: oh still applies the defile
    other disease abilities? like Killers blade and assassins scourge, oh wait People use incap before
    and disease enchant: the only Thing you can actually say is being used by many Players

    if you actually think that the immunity to one of the weakest and less used Sources of Major defile is the reason why argonians are very strong then you should ask why People don't think bosmer are op when they are equally immune to the Status Major defile coming from disease damage

    Well1 million AD nightblades would agree that Bosmer are OP.


    That being said, I wasn't aware that the immunity only dealt with a single source of defile.

    In that case, I don't think anything is that OP on Argonian. Maybe the amount of bonus sustain they get from potion, but 10% more healing isn't game breaking.

    Mag sorc is on the list and rune cage is exclusive to the sorcerer class.

    I figured as much - but I will say, i don't want to paint magsorc with the broadbrush of OP. I truly think it's just that one ability. if that was a melee range ability (leave the defensive rune cage as is but make the offensive ranged one a 6m max range melee ability) then I'd be totally fine with mag sorc.

    The racial immunities only apply to status effects.

    ie *poisoned* or *diseased* or *burning* or *chilled* or *concussed* (and no race has lightning resist btw, but adding shock resist to jewelry gives you the same immunity (or did))

    Anyone can get that immunity, as per the racial, with Glyph of [element] Resist.

    Bosmer being immune to disease and poison status effects is pretty minor (same for argonians). It's a nice little quality of life thing, but it hasn't a lot of bearing on play.

    FYI these immunities to status effects have been in the game since vanilla. The recent Summerset patch notes were a clarification of what they did, not an addition.

    DBoS isn't the most OP thing in the world (sloooaaadds), but it's highly overcentralizing. Out of 10 class combos it's used commonly as a primary offensive ult on all of them except:

    Magicka Dragonknight (Ferocious leap)
    Stamina Nightblade (Incapacitating Strike)
    Magicka Nightblade (Incapacitating Strike)

    That's not a big list.

    Meteor is more common on magsorcs and a lot of stam knights use leap, but both those class still use DBoS pretty frequently.

    Dawnbreaker is so good that it severely limits what ults see play. When was the last time you saw berserking strike or lacerate? Meteor is supposed to be the mage equivalent but magplars and magdens still use DBoS since they don't have a blockbreaking CC.

    And lets not even mention the poor vampires.

    I don't remember where I read it but I thought I remember seeing ZOS say that a goal for updates this year was to bring more variety for ultimate usage? Haven't seem much of that yet. Instead of a nerf to DBOS, how about a buff to some other ults? Make sure for every class at least one of the class ultimates is enticing enough to compete with DBOS or Meteor?

    I think quite a lot of things are overperforming but some is just less used. Like bleeds have the same effect as sloads to any class that doesn't use shields but it just hits way harder.

    But yeah poisons going through cc immunity is op. Zaan, bleeds, sloads, defile and cost poisons are all things I hate most :)
