If we can't have it, neither can they ! I hate it when I see a NPC charging dizzying swing, thinking its only gonna make me off balance! . Imagine my surprise when it knocks me in the air and stuns!

    While at it remove the darn knock back from NPC Frags, or give it back to player Frags. One or the other.

    I hadn't even considered that NPCs are still going to have the old version...seriously ZOS is there a more laughable example of developer laziness than leaving years old versions of skills on the NPCs? Now we have to envy their ability to have damage and CC on one skill?

    I think it’s rather silly for rando trash mobs to have more powerful versions of skills (at least as far as CC and all that) than players. Plus is just rude to remind us what we’ve lost to nerfs :p

    What an odd thread to throw out that overused and boring cliché. Why not throw a snowflake in there while you’re at it? ;)

    They still have the old Agony, rooting you in place! I do miss Malefic Wreath, it was actually really nice against large group of mobs like 6+ decimating them in seconds when you spammed it.

    Not worth the programming effort to be honest. Unlike dizzying swing from players you get to actually see the animation from NPCs and can easily block.

    Unless there’s lag. Then it’s not so much deadly as just obnoxious.

    You can still get the malefic wreath, might be in the store even now (it was last week). But it's actually called the Raven-Perch Cemetery Wreath.

    Kidding, but couldn't resist. I'm gonna miss Dizzying Swing.

    I find it rage inducing when a trash npc does that to me when i'm in a rush to get somewhere. It's just pointless, nothing they can do can beat me anyway, it's just an annoying delay.

    It’s a weird combat design decision to give normal mobs more interesting and envious inducing combat moves then the player.

    I can’t believe how bland and unrewarding combat has become.

    Should be removed but it won’t. it’ll just be one more thing in the growing list NPCs get that players don’t. Kind of like how NPC necromancers are actual necros as opposed to our version, which is like some shmuck found a “Beginner Necromancy for dummies” book.

    Maybe ZOS is trying to send us a message? Our characters are past the hill and should retire; let the NPCs save the world.
