The crap is stupid cheese.
You end up run out of stam, get stam locked, and get killed trying to break and dodge roll just to get a way from some newb that just spams it.
Its a crutch.
Honestly the entire game needs another rework on skills.
Foss has been a skill that behaves the same way since day 1. 3 years ago nobody complained about it , and the skill was regardes as OK. Then it got a range nerf (from 15 to 7 mts) while keeping it's root. That was the first nerf and it provided a quite clear counter play: If you plan on going agains a DK on melee, prepare yourself, otherwise, kick his ass from range.
It worked quite good until the waggon of new players that prefer nerfs to l2p came to this game. So, if you are telleing that the skill is OP, then you are clearly ignoring over 5 years of history, in which people has played this game and learnt on how to counter-play this kind of skills.
This applies to all the skills that, since some years, have been giving problems to certain group of people, such as Cloak, Streak, Wings, Cleanse, Shade, BoL, Foss, Talons, Cripple, Rune, Curse, Shields, Fury, Grim Focus, JB, Eclipse, Fear, etc. Do they have something in common?
Half of those skills have been nerfed because it seems that's easier to ask for nerfs instead of learning the game, and that's the biggest mistake ZoS has made. They listen too much to people that only cares for agendas instead of those who have played the game since its first days, and that know how the game is played.
So, people like me is *** tired of "nerf this, nerf that" threads, which don't bring anything to the table. And what's worst, is *** tired of seeing how ZoS pays more atention to those complaints instead of developing a plan on how they are addresing the game from now on. It seems this is more of a popularity contest than a game.
Old player base is leaving the game precisely because of this. The game was quite balanced until people like you came to this, trying to boicot other classes from the forums. And what's worst, they hide under the adaptation motto... and it's like WTF!!!? Guys, you are asking adaptation to the people that played the game since day 1 and that has ZERO problem with most of the skills?
If the game needs another rework is because of people like you, who pushed those nerfs. So, congratulations, thank you very much for all what you have done. ZoS just needed to solve issues with CE and lag, and instead they turned this into a nerf fest, just because you weren't able to ADAPT to a game that asked you to think a little bit more than your dumb MoBA/FPS crap. Hope you are proud.Sarcasm is something too serious to be taken lightly

jcm2606✭✭✭✭✭
✭✭Yes, because a 7 meter unblockable & undodgeable stun on a class that crutches on comboing with their ultimate for burst, is totally comparable to a 36 meter unblockable & undodgeable stun on a class that can easily line up burst to drop you without an ultimate when everything lands roughly at the same time. Makes complete and total sense.
Sorc basically had its own version of Fossilize that was on a metric *** tonne of steroids, and that was utterly and totally broken. Fossilize has no business being on a class with multiple delayed burst skills, so no, Fossilize is in no way comparable to old Rune Cage.3 -
Revokus✭✭✭✭✭Actually no. This is also on recent discussions....you can't hide behind a sub-forum.
And yes that is exactly the reaction I would expect from PvP'ers, who are the most vociferous section of the forum, and do not give a damn that every nerf they demand from ZOS (and too often get) can wreck PvE'ers builds.
You don't see this behaviour from PvE'ers, who are usually fighting against nerfs.
Unfortunately most PvE'ers won't see this to back me up....but I stand ny my beliefs.
Have a nice day.

If you think Battle Roar isthe best regen passive, you don't know anything about this game.
99% of the time you will use your ulti to execute enemies. To execute enemies, you MUST leave them close to a 25% health or less. Then you will use that passive in the exact moment you don't need it anymore: when your oponent is dead. What use can you give the passive at that point?
Of course, you can use it in middle of a fight, but who would ever do that stupid move? Wasting your ulti to recover resources is borderline idiotic. Ultis are for killing enemies. Sure, there are ultis that could help you such as shield and resto ultis, but on a class that have access to major mending and extra blocking and that lacks the tools to do burst dmg that's not smart.
So a situation in which Battle roar allows you to recover resources before killing your enemy to keep on fighting is clearly rare. It used to be useful with dynamic ulti + emperor + 1vX but that doesn't happen anymore unless you are farming potatoes.
Before talking about any class in this game, do yourself a favor and actually go to play that class, then come to the forums to give your impressions. Your rant only reveals that you don't know anything about how is the class played and you just stick with theoretical impressions/some crappy youtuber opinions, that are far from reality.
Oh, and by the way, dynamic ulti regen was taken from the game, wasn't for Dks only. Batblades that were able to build Clouding Swarm in less than 30 secs were also responsibles for that too. You know Catalist + Transfer + Sap Essence...Sarcasm is something too serious to be taken lightly

Battle roar is alright on stam dk because it’s easier to weave heavy attacks on a stam based weapon compared to destro or resto. Battle roar sucks on the mag side especially if you want to kill someone who’s tanky without using a ult.0 -

Actually I was surprised fossilize did not get nerfed when rune cage did. When they changed both, could have sworn both were complained about.

This is what most people are overlooking. Most of the whiners are looking at the skill(s) in a vacuum, which leaves you looking at only like a quarter of the full picture. Passives directly play into how good the skill is, and the rest of the class kit indirectly plays into it, too, as the rest of the class kit governs how you actually use the skill.
When built for enough damage, old Rune Cage basically gave Sorc the stamden 1- or 2-shot combo, at max range. With enough damage, timing Curse, Fury, Frags, maybe Meteor, maybe Force Pulse to soften them up a tad, with a Rune Cage, so it all hits at roughly the same time, was basically a 1-shot.
DK doesn't have nearly as many burst options, DK doesn't have any delayed burst that makes timing everything easy, and DK's burst relies pretty much entirely on comboing your whip/spammable with your ultimate when the target is low enough. If they aren't, soften them up with a few stacked DoT's and some whip/spammable spam.
Old Rune Cage made Sorc's naturally high burst uncounterable, Fossilize allows DK to more easily land its expensive burst combo. If you actually look at the skills outside of a vacuum, they aren't comparable at all.Edited by jcm2606 on September 7, 2019 3:01AM3 -

TrinityBreaker✭✭✭✭✭This skill just is just the most ridiculously over performing cc in the game and makes the old rune cage look tame in comparison. In CP pvp there are already enough snares , CC’s and immobilises to have 1 skill that wrap the 2 worst together. there is nothing worse than kiting on a medium armour build to be instantly wiped because of this skill alone. Combined with half a dozen dots even the most incapable player can sit there perm blocking, fossilise then leap or meteor and get easy kills with a 2 button combo.
In non CP most magica builds don’t have the stamina recovery to break the CC, dodge roll the immobilise and then break the next CC (most builds don’t have the barspace to run race against time). For some reason Rune cage was nerfed multiple ways in 1 update but this even better skill persists update to update without change.
That's because Rune Cage was a 41 meter CC and the CC break function was broken at the time. Where as Fozzile requires me to be in your god damn pocket to use annnnnnnnd got a cost increase nerf. Stop being a crybaby, adapt. Run some immov pots and FM if you're running from a zerg and have a feeling that DK is in there.Edited by TrinityBreaker on September 8, 2019 3:45AMEbonheart for life.

There is absolutely counterplay, and this skill is literally the bread and butter of Mag dk. Remove this and you wont get powerlash to proc ever. Tired of people attacking what they dont understand. I play against mdk on every other class, learn how to get cc immunity, and remove it like everyone else dude. If you're against a mdk it makes sense to think of when the stun is coming and preemptively use snare/immobilize immunity. Wrecks their combo and you get a W instead of that fat L that made you respawn on the forumsEdited by ZarkingFrued on September 8, 2019 6:59PM5 -

It has plenty of counterplay. 1) Immovable pots. 2) range, fossilize is only 7 meters 3) stun/snare/root the dk1 -

So keeping the DK at range is no counterplay?
You know, the DK has to RUN to catch you, or use empowering chains (which don't work if you stand 2 mts above/below the DK), or use a stam based gap closer, which in that case has to be crit charge or hidden blade. Any mDK using shield charge won't fossilize you because that gap closer comes with a stun.
On the contrary, if you gap closed the DK, before you do that or after the gap closing ended you MUST use an inmo pot/FM/RaT etc to prevent an early CC.
Dodge roll backars, then put a CC on the DK, that's all you need to stop the "foss spamming"Sarcasm is something too serious to be taken lightly
