Merciless Resolve killed me in PVP NERF NOW!

Title is clickbait xD
I'm curious how would the playerbase feel if Merciless Resolve was constantly active rather than: Activate > 5 LA > Activate
I feel it'd be much less clunky if it was: 5 LA > Activate > 5 LA > Activate etc... and that was it.
If I'm just being a noob feel free to call me a noob and laugh at me

✭Merciless resolve is a choice skill where you can choose to not activate and instead keep the damage reduction bonus (which I usually do).
If you had to hit the enemy before you could activate it it would not work.
Questions?

UndeniablyAVG✭✭✭✭I think the problem that would arise from doing this is if it didn't act as a buff you would mostly likely have to double bar it to ensure that you keep the effect active on your back bar. I cant think of any ability that passively carries its effect over without having an active buff.PS4 EU - Daggerfall Covenant

✭^That too.
If OP means it would grant the effect (which could stay on, I guess, like something like Relequen) automatically.. I mean that would work (I am not sure exactly why I wrote what I did in my first answer). However it would be stronger since the defense buff would automatically start again after you spent the spectral bow, no need to recast skill. The skill is designed the way it is now, on purpose (then again they changed it recently so I can´t see why they wouldn´t change it into a heal over time next ).
I mean it is a buff skill like other buff skills (crit surge etc). Just cast it. You don´t need to recast it to keep the stacks as it is, only if you want more stacks. Also one morph increases the time of it.
Personally I would like to see many more passive skills, but not on the active skillbar, rather on a new, separate passive skillbar.Edited by MaleAmazon on October 8, 2019 9:10AM0 -

✭✭My main is a magblade DD and I don't like how this skill works now. It felt clunky even before, with 5xLA to proc... it was a bit of a chore compared to the magsorc frags, and now I guess it is good mostly for PvPers and nb tanks.
The nightblade has other defensive and healing skills, why make a purely offensive (finisher type) ability, into a defensive/self heal combo?
In my opinion they should make at least one more cheap ultimate for each class using its "power fantasy". I would rather have the bow proc as a cheap ulti that does mostly the same damage like now, and have the skill give different buffs depending on morphs (like defence or dps increase). This is because many times it is faster to recharge the incap ulti than use the bow effectively (dodged/target dies to quickly, moves out of range, etc).

Royalthought✭✭✭✭✭OP is right +1
After 5 light attacks the 10% mitigation should be granted and the bow available without the need for an initial activation.
If necessary they could start the 30 second duration after the 5 stacks were active. That way you still have the bow for the duration instead of only when in combat.
Right now nb's need 5 light attacks, lose mitigation once fired and lose the bow when out of combat. Having to cast it twice is just clumsy.0 -

He's not complaining about the "bow proc" killing him. He's addressing this part of the skill:rotaugen454 wrote: »I died falling off a cliff. Nerf cliffs now!
"Focus your senses for 20 seconds, reducing your damage taken by 2% with every Light or Heavy Attack, up to 5 times."
With that said though, Dark Cloak grants Minor Protection which is 8%.
If granted the protection from both, NBs could have up to 18% damage reduction (with the 2 skills alone) but I would be ok with this because it would help NB tanks and since it's not the cloak where you disappear, it wouldn't benefit the gankblades since they use the other morph.
Counter my argument if there's something I am missing that would make this broken if the 10% from Merciless would be active from the start.Edited by Kuramas9tails on October 8, 2019 1:35PMYour friendly neighborhood crazy cat lady of ESO

It is intended. Read the patch notes for it. You are supposed to lose the mitigation if you fire the bow.0 -

I'm not assuming it isn't intended. Simply pointing out poorly functioning aspects. Intended =/= good.0 -

I vouched for this idea initially when minor berserk was removed. But then I realized that I wouldn't be able to build stacks on my resto bar while being on the defense this way, translating to it being waaaay harder to shift to offense. So while having an additional "buff to manage" is harder, i'll take it just to build stacks on the defensive bar.0 -

Correct me if I'm wrong but frags can be procced on the off bar, yea?
No reason grim focus wouldn't be on front bar and able to proc on light attacks from back bar.
Good mention tho. Without the initial cast it's still vital to proc from both bars.0 -

✭✭✭My suggestion:
10% damage reduction for slotting it (automatic from base skill).
Then change the Spectral Bow so it can always be fired, but with each light attack it charges up.
So by the time it reaches 5 it has reached it's maximum potential.
For example:
Base damage: 7k
After light attacks:
1: 9k
2: 11k
3: 13k
4: 15k
5: 17k
And when you reach the maximum, the skill needs to glow or radiate on your bar.Edited by brandonv516 on October 8, 2019 7:56PM2 -

Yep posted this as well in the PTS forum. It's basically like the new stam sorc skill this way.
The responses I got were more along the lines of "magblades are high risk high reward" so it's better as a 0 ot 100 skill, while stam sorcs get tobe flexible but deals less overall damage.0 -
