Let’s talk about the new Bound Armaments

I think the skill is a little to much like the nightblade’s bow proc and I have an idea that might change that and help Stam sorc in pvp. So my suggestion is if you activate the ability with 1 to 2 daggers you stun the enemy, This falls in line with ZOS thinking that if an ability does a lot of damage it shouldn’t stun and it also gives Stam sorcs the choice of stunning or doing more damage, the stun won’t matter for pve because no one will activate only 2 daggers.

EDIT: this also gives Stam sorcs a reason to activate it earlier, I’ve heard people say “so if I see a Stam sorc with 4 daggers just dodge roll” but now the Stam sorc might activate it early to stun you.

So you are saying that skill is too much and to prevent that you want to replace the lowest dmg scenerio of this skill with a stun .
You should definitely work at ZoS combat team, your ideas are almost that bright like theirs...
Jesus, what is wrong with forum ppl

That's what ZOS is trying to do.

If yes. Then they need to remove passives from that skill.

I think you misunderstood me I meant because 1 to 2 daggers does so little damage zos should add a stun, I don’t want the damage removed.

I think you misunderstood me I meant because 1 to 2 daggers does so little damage zos should add a stun, I don’t want the damage removed.

So to summarize this up:

Nightblade skill gives you mitigation but you pay for it by not having dmg from skill at all. Gives you heal but only when you are close to your target and only when you hit enemy with one of the slowest (if not the slowest) projectaile in the game. Skill doesn't give you any passive dmg increase.
Now Sorc skill gives you more dmg from LA, more max stam, last for 40s, deals quite good dmg, have longer duration and to make it more different then that blade skill, you want to add stun to it.

I'm mean, maybe I'm biased but why we should have nightblade class at all? New sorc skill is great, looks great and i don't think it needed more buffs. If you think that any sorc skill need change, ask devs to change stam pet cuz it now underperforms and there is no connection between this pet and what stamsorc should be.

Sorc has enough class based stuns, you are not thinking about this properly from a balance perspective as you clearly main a sorc so you want it to be over performing, just put the game first rather than your ability to 'pwn noobz'

It already is a good skill giving good bonuses to multiple areas, even has passive stam increases!

Ive tested it, looks good, works and is currently in a place where its not a game breaking change. Give it some time to bed in before wanting to add in a very powerful mechanic so sorcs can have another skill box free!

I'm actually looking forward to this rework.

Load up the daggers with bow light attacks while building ultimate, trigger daggers, rush in and blow stuff up.

Edit: in PvP

Actually I’ve never played Stam sorc, I have a mag sorc but he’s a crafter. My mains are magden and magplar.
