Let’s fight homogenization!

Hello everyone,
Since in this patch the builds/skills/rotations are highly homogenized I think it’s the right time to showcase the best/coolest off-meta builds
The principle is simple:
You post a good build not using the BIS équipement/skills
-it has to be a build you like playing regardless of being the best
-it’s best if you show the skills/equipment
-say if it’s a PVP or PVE build
-explain why you like it
-(optional) indicate DPS it it’s a DD build
-have fun

    Why should I have to play my class poorly just to be different to the clearly better choices? ZOS should be creating unique class identities that provide something unique to a group.

    Class that, in their own way can: tank, heal, dps as well as all the other classes by using their class skills supplemented by guild skill lines.

    We should fight homogenization by making it clear to ZOS that homogenization and standardizing skills is an awful game design approach and smacks of laziness and incompetence.

    They've put themselves into this position through a poor CP system and power creeped gear sets as well as an astounding arrogance and stubbornness in refusing to balance PvP and PvE separately.

    We should fight with homogenisation by creating exactly the same builds. Oh wait it already happens
    I'm done with this game because of ZOS pushing us into Vengeance, because they don't know how to fix Cyrodiil.

    We will end up fighting it by leaving the game.
    From very interesting game, with so many different strong skills it will end up to you being either stamina or magicka and class will matter very little :(
    The game had its problems with some stuff being OP, but personally i would rather play game where there are OP stuff in every class than this bland thing they are going for.

    For starters, explain why homogenisation is a bad thing, because people were using the same builds for a long time, just changing some traits around.

    Each class should have moves that are unique and strong. It always used to be like that but this required some skill and knowledge from players how to counter it, but devs want to make it as casual friendly as possible, that's why we have all those changes. Most of the time people cry that something is OP when they are lacking knowledge and refuse to learn something.

    This is why I want to see design intent for everything. We have no idea why they standardized things and the reasons they said doesn't really paint the full picture.

    But we will never know. They canned joy for explaining necro bash after necro released so the company has too many ndas lol.
