Why was Veiled Heritance changed and then locked behind a nearly impossible proc condition?

Did you know that the artifact weapons make Cyrodiil lag? Is there anything planned to address this?

If you aren't aware, it's not just any lag. It's really something special. Skills don't fire, people get logged out, light attacks can take seconds to fire off, elemental weapon stops working completely, vigor and shields can take upwards of 6 seconds to register, ultimates stop working, players teleport, attacks either all miss or all land at once, and best of all, ping says '200 ms', which is clearly incorrect.

It happens every single time the weapon comes out.

My question is simple:

Is the combat team OK with the extreme dot rotations that have resulted from U23? Is it intended design for magicka classes to not even use a spammable in PVE anymore? If this design was not intended, are there plans to fix this issue?

Will the vMA Restoration staff be adjusted due to the changes to the duration of Regeneration?

In PVP situations, why does a player in 5 pieces of light armor using melee Magicka damage spells (like a DK or Templar) with a maxed out spell penetration passive generate less damage than a player in 5 pieces of heavy armor with a stamina melee weapon skill?

There is no armor balance in this game. It should be something like this:

Light: High damage, low resistance
Medium: Medium damage, medium resistance
Heavy: Low damage, high resistance

Instead, the game offers this:

Light: Low damage, low resistance
Medium: High damage, medium resistance
Heavy: High damage, high resistance

From a PvP pov: why has Magicka Sorcerer received nerfs for the past several patches and not received a single buff to its defensive or offensive kit to help compensate for these changes?

Do u have any plans to adjust dk´s engulfing effect(applies only for caster) for the group or give other classes an similiar way to buff the offensive power?

Dont come up with def unique buffs, offensive ones are always prefered.

Will the Console PvP experience be improved?

Good afternoon,

As a person who has mained Sorcerers for a very long time, I'm very concerned about the major nerfs.

1.Will Clanfear ever be changed to a stam ability? This was just extra, sorry.

2. As a person whose uses a Sorcerer Tank I am very against the cost increase and shield decrease, the Ward has been a life savor for me many times but as a Tank I always have to watchful of my resources carefully but I know I'm not the only one who uses this as a tank. Basically a double nerf... From Alcast's words.

3. I am very concerned about the Power Surge change. Why was this even a thing? Who thought this would be a great idea. I myself also run a Sorcerer Healer. Is the team going to implement Major Sorcery on Critical Surge??? This was never explained to us, it was just posted about in the Change Forum. DO NOT CHANGE THIS AT ALL. Mag-Sorcs rely on this. its not meant for healing period.

4. I don't under stand why the team is nerfing Sorcerer Pets so much this is a ridiculous amout, why? Just why? Almost 70%???


Why does this patch seem to favor PVPers more. I'm not a PVPer I absolutely dislike Cyrodil. Why does the PVEers have suffer for because of the of the PVPers? Sorcerers have continued to just be absolutely destroyed almost every patch this not fair to those who love Sorcerers. also the healing I've seen in videos good and all I can say is "meh".. Many individuals and myself don't follow META build guides at all, players have made good and unique DPS, Healers, and Tanks out of theory crafting and etc... Damage shield stacking I don't understand why this is a bad idea. PVP is competitive you need an edge in a fight, there are no fair fights in Cyrodil/Battlegrounds. all I can say is that these patches have unsettled a lot of people, as you can clearly tell from the forums.

Thank you for your time

Healing has taken some huge hits this update, both to raw healing output as well as level of interaction and skill level, in particular a healers ability to look after a group spread over a wide area.

How are you guys going to be monitoring the PvE healing situation going forward?

I'm really glad that a bunch of previously useless skills such as degeneration and soul trap actually useful, however they are over shadowing a lot of class skills. Are there plans to bring back some diversity to PvE?

Are there a set of metrics you use to gauge the success of the changes made?

While I like the thinking behind the power surge change, can we have a last minute change to add major sorcery to all skills and morphs?

Please explain the thought process behind buffing single target dots in the same patch as nerfing survival from light and medium builds (shields, protective, 4sec vigor, Momentum HoT, etc).

If the intent of reducing the viability of light and medium armor in PVP is that PVP = heavy armor, why does magicka have such lackluster heavy sets? (Ice Furnace anyone?)

Does the team look at how a skill performs in the hand of individual classes, before making a determination wheter its too strong or weak?
Vigor as a skill is insanely powerful on for example stamina dragonknights, due them having lots of healing modifiers, and beacuse the class generally doesnt need much sustain.
That does not make Vigor an overpowered skill in the hands of other classes. In fact some stam classes dont get much healing out of their class tree at all, and so the latest nerf to vigor and the loss of heal from momentum is going to hurt them more than for example stamina dragonknights.
