There seriously needs to be some type of cool down with the knock backs because it's too consistent, it needs to he reworked seriously.

    My archers only play PvE but they cannot endlessly knock back a foe. There does seems to be a cool down. She can sometimes knock back two or three individuals charging her then immobilize them with Bombard but she can't just keep knocking them back with Draining Shot.
    PC NA(no Steam), PvE, mostly solo

    As i said, DR is the same for all skills. No reason for your poinless nerf cry dude.
    Want to counter it ? Use grip or charge skills.
    Good luck!!!

    Feels great using it, feels bad getting hit with it, but it seems to do exactly what it's supposed to do.

    It is flame reach without the dot and with a heal on a bow. There is a cooldown to knockbacks, it is called cc immunity. If you are getting cced repeatably despite cc immunity, blame the servers

    The problem isn’t with draining shot, the problem is with cc immunity. It’s partially because of lag but there are other factors too. It is entirely possible again to chain stun people and to juggle them with draining and with dizzying swing.

    So many issues would be resolved if the servers worked properly

    Also the only people who cry about someone asking for a certain skill or set to be overlooked is either someone who is overly abusing said skill or sets.

    There is a cool down. You have a 6 second cc immunity for every cc in the game once you break free

    Dodge. Craft immov poisons. Craft immov pots. As a sorc, they can be annoying but these types are avoidable/killable.

    LOL at all the obtuse "L2P" replies!

    You guys know EXACTLY why people are complaining about this skill. It's because bowtards use it as a spammable. That's why it seems like we are getting hit with knockbacks on cooldown... we are!

    So what's the problem? The problem is that when Mag Sorcs, Mag Blades and Mag Wardens were doing this with Destructive Clench, the Stamina Mafia flocked to the forums in droves to demand a NERF. And guess what? They got Clench nerfed!

    So don't pretend like you guys don't know what the deal is. You know what's up. You just don't want to see your annoying spammable gimped like ours was.

    If you’re getting knocked back by Draining shot more than once within six seconds, then something is going on with zos. If I had to wager you’re probably a qq baby who doesn’t understand the game. I’m guessing a magtoon stacked into mag pool, with a very small stamina pool. Let me spell it out for you. RaT or Immovable pots.

    You will be lucky to find one bow build in bgs that's making sure draining shot is performed on cool down. Clench was used by almost every magicka build in the game. Stop being to damn biased in your opinion and I'm a magsorc main.
