    Oh man, great idea. Have your character yell out "taking aim" when you begin cast

    You can't save yourself. My gankblade main opening combo hit for 20k+ on the average heavy armor enemy with max crit resist. Either my Veli proc or Poison Injection or Axe Bleed or Ravage Health poison will kill you. Breaking free wont really help you, as my Stam-drain poisons, will leave you with no stamina pretty fast. At that point, you are pretty much a sitting duck. Only times, it will fails, is if your allies counter gank me or if you have cc immunity, then I am a goner.

    Too bad you are not a mag Sorc. You'd hit for 40k!
    But then again, cloaking and porting through objects after a failed gank comes in handy.

    If you are really quick you might be able to dodge his inital snipe, but that pretty much only works if you are not riding on a horse, b/c dismounting and doding just takes too long.

    You have to roll dodge, pop vigor and buff up and block or run. Then counter attack.

    Undeath passive helps if you're vamp, and reactive armor/jewelry/weapons if you can work it into your build . Reactive armor makes you take 35% less damage when affected by a disabling effect. I wear it when I want to be a bit tankier. You lose some damage, but can still get over 3k WD pretty easily if you're stam. It helps a lot vs NB's when they try to gank you with any stun or disabling affect. When I wear it, the only time I die from a gank is if someone gets me with a perfect combo while I'm mounted or if I'm afk, typing or just not paying much attention.

    My sniper build had like a 23k snipe tooltip and 60% crit.

    Combined it was around 40k~ tooltip in 1 gcd because of snipes delay.

    Then it lets me hit another 15k~ tooltip worth of dmg if i don't ult.

    IMO stealth passives are relics from an old time, when there were still softcaps. Softcaps made it difficult to push the damage through stats so passives were more necessary than they are today. But after removing the softcaps and introducing the monster sets, CPs, 2h's give two bonuses, etc.. it has become much easier to increase the damage.

    Attacking from stealth gives already a tactical advantage so why are 100% crit and stun are necessary? IMO ZOS should remove those passives (and maybe rework some NB passives, but step after step) because they would do themselves a favor with it and could balance skills like Snipe easier for example.

    I think it's the easiest way for ZOS besides fixing lag/health desync or balancing most of the sets.

    Lately I *** hate snipe. I'm trying to solo play and two or three guys in the background are spamming it. Wings can't counter it either......plus the bug that u take three Snipes in one second.......And when I get close they cloak away. Smh. It gives u defile too.

    Guess it's okay if u group vs group and Zerg vs Zerg ......but for s solo player it's annoying. ZOS and the community have made it clear that solo is not the intention though so I can't complain much.

    What I've been dying to, from one particular guy in IC, is a simple Incap -> Snipe combo. I verified it on a target skeleton. You cast Snipe and queue up Incap while the Snipe animation is in progress. This is done in cloak, at melee range. On the attacker's end it sounds like Snipe, followed by Incap, and takes 2 seconds. On the receiving end Incap tends to hit first, followed by Snipe in the same GCD, i.e. the two skills hit together. This particular guy hit my unshielded light armor builds for 22K, 10K from Incap, followed by 12K from Snipe, in CP. I figured the armor sets to wear for that combo must be something like the following, but I don't know:

    2x Balorgh
    5x Morag Tong
    5x Marksman or a.n.other damage set

    It hinges on Incap hitting before Snipe, as that activates Morag Tong, Balorgh, and the 20% damage bonus from Incap to buff Snipe. Lethal Arrow, not Focused Aim, in my case. To nerf this attack variation ZOS would merely need to change the timing, such that Snipe is guaranteed to hit before Incap at melee range.

    Hilarious video. Don't take it personally Irylia is one of the best gankers left in the game, and that takes a fair bit of skill to pull off. I'm in that video and while my build is such that he didn't hit me as hard as you say he did you, and I don't often die to gankers - I was still dead before I could break the stun and react that time. It's just one of those things. You just have to recognise that you have absolutely no chance - that he's paper and pretty much all of us visibles are rock, and laugh it off. No point getting upset - its not like you actually die IRL :smiley:
