Havent been stunned by Arctic Blast or seen anyone use it since last update

_Ahala_ · January 2019

Zos could have literally given us stone fist and it would be more useful... Arctic Blast is a useless morph just like Expansive Frost Cloak, Frozen Retreat, Shimmering Slab, and Bursting Vines... Magdens needed a damaging stun not one with a 1.5k heal

I gave up tanking on my Warden when they changed this skill, and I still haven't tanked on him since.

Artic blast for magicka wardens remains totally useless for another week

Im sure ill be back next week, and the week after.

I'll also be back for the PTS of the expansion because Im also sure it wont even be acklowedged as a dead skill by then too

I havent been stunned by it in month in wvw or in any pvp. Pretty porked skill.

Slow travel time and poor heal in most cases.

Yeah I was hoping that they would replace the heal with a stun so then arctic blast would do damage and stun but I guess not.

It was actually okay before as a tank tool. That heal wasn't complete garbage on a tank. Not saying the line couldn't use changes though.

Polar Wind is a better morph for a tank though

People took BOTH morphs. Arctic blast had a 30% chance to proc chilled per tick. It was warden's best way to apply minor maim(chilled) and a VERY fun tool. Polar wind is good too but it just heals.

To say one is better than the other when both have different uses is unfair.

All the top tier PvP magdens use a lightning master destro staff and destructive reach or clench, it's also completely useless in PvE.
So time and resources wasted on the rework of skill that didn't need it (all it needed was the damage to scale with magicka and spell damage) when so many dead morphs needed it, like crystal blast for example...

Just revert it back to that actual useful ability that it was.

Please give deep fissure stun back. Nobody uses this in PvE or PvP. I wouldn't mind getting the old morph back - I used that previously in PvP.

Well that's just not true.

I can live without a stun on magden, clench/reach exists, but it would be really nice if we had a snare removal without having to be a filthy vampire, make Polar Wind the morph of Arctic Wind that i dont think anyone uses grant 3 seconds of snare immunity.

i agree. it's now a really usable part of our rotation. breach also means more damage for us.

have you forgotten the falcon's swiftness line that is now only used for the minor berserk slotted effect on bird of prey? it's not worth casting for such a huge cost. 4 seconds of major expedition and 10 seconds of major endurance? XD. i'd give it to the base skill or just deceptive predator.

Yeah but minor berserk + major exp + snare removal..ZOS will say it's OP. And i rather not have it on the other morph since i dont want to lose minor berserk.

i'd rather have it on falcons swiftness to make the skill worth casting again.

@ZOS_GinaBruno @ZOS_JessicaFolsom why is @ESO_Nightingale not the magicka warden player rep? There isn’t anyone more knowledgable, vocal and passionate about the class than him

I honestly have no clue who the rep actually is but @ESO_Nightingale is always on the forums, discord and everywhere else speaking to people and trying to find solutions for magden and he’s siggesfed some fantastic stuff that’s being ignored...
