Nord ult gen passive is a load of hot garbage.

5 ult every 10 seconds is minor. Id prefer to see stam return on damage ever 4 seconds or 5 ult every 5 seconds.

The passive doesn't appear to be well thought out.

Orc still outclasses Nord in PvP by a mile.

*****after some taking a bit to think about the Ult gen its probably one of the best changes made. It was 4am when I got up for work and read the notes*****

    While true, this goes completely against their reasons of this rebalancing to allow all racers to better fit all roles.

    Once again, they are saying one thing while doing the complete opposite.

    I thought the same and i'm very disappointed with this changes. So now when you have % based bonuses you may at least stack them to get some juice, now it's just boring plain values.

    It would make sense that a Nord would be one of the better 2H DPS due to their size and strength. I just want these changes to make sense. Every race should be good at two things, one support role and one damage role while being contextual to their physicality and background.

    Then you have a unique chance to build entirely into damage and sustain in a medium armor build and you’re getting nearly minor heroism already, maybe this would pair well with the Asylum 2H that basically went extinct, or low slash for minor herooism on top of this. We haven’t even hit PTS which means suggestions can change things and there are already some interesting ideas to consider.

    5 ult every 10 seconds I'll take that. Means Nords will pop ultimates more often when getting smacked by an Orc which shouldn't be too much of a problem being already more resistant.

    The ultimate gen racial is amazing and makes nords hands down the best for tanking. No other race has anything that effects ultimates.

    I'm not sure if ya'll actually did any math. Nords are going to be nuts next patch in PvP.

    Let's take a look at why...

    Many people in Cyrodiil run 2+ Protective traits on jewelry. This grants 1844 Armor and Spell Resist per piece.

    If we take a look at an imperial who will boast 4k max stats from next patch with 2x Protective Jewelry it will gain 2k stam, 2k health, and 3688 armor and spell resist.

    A nord with 2x Triune jewelry in place of the protective will gain 2370 stam, 870 mag, and 1956 health with 3960 armor and spell resist. The nord also gains an additional 2310 cold resist, immunity to chilled which means less uptime on enemy minor maim which means more consistent damage output, and now an extra 5 ult every 10 seconds when taking damage.

    Nord is going to be very strong for basically every class. Even magicka sorcs will be successful as Nords thanks to the armor and spell resist buffing their shields and allowing them to gain extra magicka by not investing in protective traits.

    Do the math everyone :) #NordOP

    You could make a Nord Stam Sorc completely broken in that setup. Run Decisive weapons for added effect.

    If things stay as good as they look for Nord, I will be deleting around 4 PVP alts to reroll as Nords. Especially my stamDK and stamden.
