Stamdens needs to be nerfed down in PvP

    Instead of asking for a nerf, you could always do what I do and just assume you need to get better.

    Stamdens are stupidly OP when stacked on top of each other and given access to a templar’s purify.

    By themselves they’re one of the weakest classes because of how telegraphed their burst is, and how lacking in pressure (no class dots) the toolkit is.

    They are the polar opposite of NBs - they are op in group situations (NBs aren’t) and underpowered alone (Where NBs shine)

    If you’re a NB and losing to a stamden 1v1, night I suggest making a stamden yourself? Once you play it you can learn how to counter it. There’s a reason you don’t see any stamdens winning dueling tournaments these days (kodi did it once a year ago, but came back the next week on a stamblade and won again on that class...)

    The most common complaint about stamdens IMO is when you get hit with 4x shalks at once, there’s no counterplay. Also, in PvP groups, stamdens have made Stam DKs irrelevant.. but that is changing next patch (slightly...) with minor brutality becoming 10% wep dmg instead of 5.

    IMO shalks and merciless resolve need to get the freaky Friday treatment. It would adequately balance both classes

    Yeah Stamwarden is an abomination but no way they'll nerf their Crown store baby. Pay2Win is here to stay in ESO.
    If that had anything to do with it then magwarden would be a hell of a lot better.

    Umm magwarden is also insane it's just not as braindead easy as Stamwarden.

    You obviously have never played a magden and have no idea WTF you're talking about..I'd agree with you on Magdens in PVP but after a year and a half as a clunky, time delayed,buff laden magden I call BS on this statement.

    Lol @Zardayne when I get home I'll try to remember to send you my screenies of 40+ deathmatch kills. Seriously, magwarden is baller. It's also pure aids in group PvP.

    NO. MORE. NERF. THREADS. THEY. ARE. GETTING. BORING.

    Can't people suggest ideas on how to buff up the other classes in order to make them compete better and level out the playing field more instead of nerfing a specific class and then ending back up at square one again an update later?

    PvPers don't want equal footing, that should be clear by now.

    They have everything
    • NB levels of Sustain
    • NB levels of Burst
    • AoE Burst unmatched even considered the Proxi-Det days of the past
    • Magplar levels of Self-heals
    • DK-like Tankiness
    Pretty much, every high MMR BG has few of them just spamming Sub. Assault and Steel Tornado bursting down everything in sight. In case, stamblades or stamplars, you can simply burst them down in retaliation faster than they can reset, stamdens will just reset fights at will. Also, out-sustaining them ain't really an option either, due to their great sustain paired with Heavy Armor and is getting a buff next patch.

    That's all very well.
    But what about treasure chests and fish holes that go partially plundered?

    look at these shoes! I've only had them three weeks and the heels are worn right through.
    If you complain, nothing happens. You might as well not bother.

    Stamden is basically all aoe.They got nerfed with the evasion change, just slot a skill that grants major Evasion which is 25% less aoe damage.

    Adapt or die. I think a big problem with these threads is PvP players not willing to adapt and change their set up like what skills they use, much easier to jump on the forum have a rage and call for a NERF. Get out of your comfort zone adapt or die. So tired of PvP NERFS ruining it for PvE which by the way the majority of ppl play.

    I'm still amazed that folks call to nerf x "in pvp." Seems to me that they should have learned by now every patch EVER that nerfed anything nerfs both pvp AND pve due to how ESO is made. The system simply cannot separate the two which is what makes balancing skills and classes difficult. I actually enjoy that apsect of the game because it keeps things changing and challenging. Do folks really want to play the same way with the same gear for years and years?

    This thread makes me cry.
    LITERALLY EVERY CLASS HAS ACCESS TO DAWNBREAKER AND STEEL TORNADO
    STAMSORCS ARE EQUALLY AS POWERFUL BECAUSE OF HURRICANE AND IMPLOSION
    BUT NOOO WE GOTTA CRY BECAUSE STAMDENS HAVE HEALS AND SHALKS AND ZERGLINGS DONT KNOW HOW TO PLAY WITHOUT A 24 AND ALWAYS DIE BEIN 1vX’d.
    Enough with the nerf threads.
    Stop being a ****** zergling and get good at the game.
    The moment you learn how to play without relying on a 24 man group to carry you, is the moment you understand just how absurd these nerf threads are, and just atrocious this upcoming nerf fiasco is going to be.

    In PvP they are stupidly broken. Just look at all the buffs they can gain. Look at he passives. Look at the burst skills.

    If you don't think so, you're currently playing stamden.

    As long as I never agree with nerfs, classes should have their strong and weak points. Stamden doesn't have weak points.

    Agree!
    Ok, Assault, Steel Tornado and Dawnbreaker get an indirect nerf because of the new evasion, but that's not only for wardens.
    No class should be able enjoying the carefree package!

    What's stamwardens weakness?

    new evasion makes shalks 25% weaker, dbos also... /endthread
    max level: mDK, stamBlade, stamSorc, magPlar, mDen, stamDen, magBlade, stamCro
    ESO+
    # of mules: 4 (FULL)
    maxed bank: FULL -_-
    Stop the grind! Get rid of stupid events and daily-quest gallore. Get rid of "have a chance of 1 in a million to get a piece of 1 in 30 to get a stupid motif or pet... wtf..."
    And at this point just remove all classes and have everyone choose their set of skills. then balance accordingly to skills always used vs. skills never used.

    The only real counter to a stamden was stamina resource poisons. And they’re nerfing those. The only straight up legit reasons for slotting such poisons was that pay2win stamden class or the better yet those Zerglings running around in organized Zergs of 10 templars, 10 Wardens a so-so NB and 3 “warrior” DK’s Lol.

    When stamden tanklings change to a dps like magsorc or magblade they are a 2min job for me and im not a good player..
    Therefore its pretty much clear that outside godmode stamden those scrubs tanklings die like fly's.


    L2P dont hide in your heavy armor + reflects + stacking 3-4 heals and specially with your tankling friends that stack heals.

    Every class uses AoE. What's your point again?
