Do you enjoy heavy attacking to sustain?

FR0STDEE · October 2018

That's all I seem to do on my stam warden. I hate the sustain on them. Betty does sweet fa in my opinion.

It depends. On a staff it is ok. On melee weapons it is ok. On the bow it is disturbing

@FR0STDEE run 3x infused weapons, infused stamina steal main hand, infused beserking off hand, infused poison bow back bar.

Netch & stamina steal are getting buffed too next patch

Free sustain and free dps.

No , mainly because Its painfully slow for most weapons. Its sooooo so slow it hurts my eyes.

I don't know when any game where people likes 20 to 40 min fights ? ESO is the first game I know that turned into that... sustain should be very small for PvP.

I don't like that it is a requirement, but heavy attacks have been a part of my rotation since launch of the game, so nothing much has changed for me.

I love Lightning Heavy Attack builds, BUT doing heavy attacks for resources on flame and ice staves feels very wonky and uncertain on if you're going to get the resources back do to mistarget and it missing or a dodge roll etc.

I love the feel of heavy attacks on stamina weapons though. Feels rewarding. Except the Bow... same problem as above. Wish they changed it back to where you could hold the heavy attack until you were ready to release. Made you really feel like an Archer or Ranger, timing your shot.

I don't enjoy it at all for stamina characters, also I dislike to heavy attack for fire staff

The only one I enjoy, and feels somewhat that I am doing something "damaging" is the heavy attack for the lightning staff
(the reason I did not give a full no)

I would have no problem with it, except that fire & ice staves have very slow animations (about 1 second too long) and no effect until the end. Lightning staff heavy is fine, same damage but the channel feels like you're doing something useful.

Every boss fight switching to heavy attack rotation is annoying, but pots help with that.

Heavy attacking with a fire staff is a pain in the rear. I hate it. I wish they'd make a heavy attack with flame staves like lightning staves, except with a solid stream of fire instead of lightning. It would look amazing, and be more fun to do.

Numerikuu · October 2018

Depends on the weapon honestly. Some are better than others and fit in to the fluidity of combat. But since my main is a flame stave user?... Hell no. I hate it with a passion.

This... though I fear they'd borrow the cone/range from fiery breath which sucks. Either that or have multiple smaller fire bolts fire off, each one giving magicka, much like lightning staves do.

It feels so unsatisfying.

Like winding up to smack a monster with a wet paper towel roll.

SugaComa · October 2018

Heavy attack should be I creased damage light attack should increase regen

By conserving energy you get a better return ....

Heavy attack should do damage and maybe even cost resources

Danksta · October 2018

I picked other because I play Nightblades.

When I’ve expended all my resources and potion is on cool down and I can kite kite kite heavy attack, pop off a few skills and heal, it feels like there was an actual strategy, it’s wonderful. By now a potion is about ready to pop and I can go in for the kill.

No. It slows the pace of combat down considerably and makes things excruciatingly boring. In HOTR-CWC the meta was all heavy attack stamdk in PvE and any braindead idiot could play them. Hopefully that never happens again.
