    When someone asked about a separate pve server for cyrodiil you replied;
    Nope. We need targets to gank.

    So in response to your request for the removal of stun in streak, my reply is;
    Nope. We need targets to gank.

    Nope. Ppl who fught fair hould allways have the disadvantade. Its realistic. It would make no sense to play unfair if a fair fight will be profitable.

    Streak is fine. Every class has powerful skills at their disposal.

    But the stun from streak is unfair to you so it should be realistic that streak stuns shouldnt it?
    Politeness is respecting others.
    Courage is doing what is fair.
    Modesty is speaking of oneself without vanity.
    Self control is keeping calm even when anger rises.
    Sincerity is expressing oneself without concealing ones thoughts.
    Honor is keeping ones word.

    i agree streak should not stun magsorc already has so many options for CC unblockable aoe stun with big range rly unnecessary

    to name a few options - vamp drain, rune cage, flame clench, crystal blast, does sorc really need 5th hard CC in its kit? i dont think so

    LOL.
    Make Rush of Agony "Monsters only." People should not be consecutively crowd controlled in a PvP setting. Period.

    Vamp drain and flame clench are not sorc class abilities, they are available to every magicka class/vampires.

    We don't have to be ghastly looking undead btw.

    Also clench does not stun but knocks back (also you need to be quite close to enemy, which is not ideal for a class lacking dependable heal)

    I'd lol to anyone trying to use Crystal blast in PvP tbh. It has cast time and easily interruptable. Not as good as frags.

    Rune cage is ok, eh, but ok to use.

    flame clench is not sorc class ablitiy yet before range nerf everyone was spamming this *** for good 4 years SMH my head

    Great example of why you shouldn't nerf things, because they will be replaced by others and people will cri about those too

    Just make it blockable again. I'm tired of eating Meteors with zero counterplay options besides run away and hope the streak can't reach you.

    But removing the stun would be silly. Unless your goal is to *** off every PvP Sorc player.. in which case it's a great idea!

    I built my stam sorc specifically to hunt down cloak blades. My advice is to make your movement less predictable and always have a shade down ready to go. Good NBs know how to reset a fight bad ones run in a straight line and crutch on cloak. L2P

    Vamp drain is the only relevant stun you have mentioned, and we are now nerfing classes based on vampire skills? K.

    i posted this on the other thread OP made but is still relevant here


    OP,

    the over powered skill's and class's are simply a result of players (some not all) playing many class's and races, they do this for a couple of main reasons 1) diversity of game play 2) to gain an understanding of how a class works.
    each class in PvP and PvE add's something different to a group be it Dps or utility, as for (2) players who have an understanding of how different class's work also understand how their rotations work, with that knowledge comes the ability to be 1 or 2 steps ahead of an unskilled player, for example knowing 9 times out of 10 if X is cast Y or Z will follow, a skilled player can also spot which sets you are running and counter accordingly, notice i have not mentioned skills or specific class? this is all down to the player and their experience, skills/ sets are secondary to that and can never replace that either, when someone says "its a l2p issue" its not an insult or a flame comment its simply a nod to the fact you (generic not specific) maybe lack certain insights and experience, expectations gleaned from theory are often overshadowed by the reality that we are not scripted NPC's we adapt and learn with every encounter, a sorc, DK,templar,NB or necro are not out of the box OP, the player behind them makes a character easy or hard to kill, the skills and sets are just a fraction of any build.

    so before you call for another nerf consider which part of your build is not working as intended first.

    Hearken to the days of yore, when I used the Breaking Ball CC (Lightning Reach) because it was less obvious than the Ring of Fire.
    Lo, do I remember my forefathers switching to Overload 3rd bar to put on an undodgeable defensive rune and throw down 5 mines.
    Wherefore art thou still a stun, dear streak?

    For your remainders are a single man sentenced to prison if he not dodgeth, or a channeled shardstorm favored by squires. Thou may still stun with thine monkey pulse! Fear not though, for my stun is eternal. They may make block the stun's bane again, but as others have sworn - the nerf mavens will still be farmed, as that is the best fit for the peasantry. Streak has Spoken. (If invoked again within 4 seconds, each invocation will stack in cost)

    Fear is the Mindkiller

    Rune Cage is avoidable, as it should be with that kind of range. Streak is much stronger but requires risk and has an escalating cost. It's fine.

    No it really shouldn't be. Streak is the only stun in the game that leaves you in a worse position after using it. It is also difficult to follow up on to continue damaging an enemy.

    Calling streak Op and not complaining about toppling charge is ridiculous

    I'm not the op I'd like to point that out and I said probably hoping for an honest discussion. All these undodgeable unblockable skills are not fun imo.
    Secondly sorcs burst is delayed so it's ok to have a stun that there's zero counter to? Line up that delayed burst on any non tanky build and its gg considering it's all going to land at the same time unless I have a pot up and that's skillful play?? Idk

    I think it is odd that the team removed counter play from it. It's freaking annoying but whatever, it's also predictable. My Magblade can outmaneuver streak spamming weiners any day assuming I don't fall asleep at the keyboard because pvp is so boring now.

    Yet here you are whining for nerfs, and here i am in yet another nerf thread telling people its a l2p issue.

    Edited so my comment doesn't get removed lol.

    Instead ill simply ask, what do you main, and what sets do you use or your average stats?

    Because there's a little thing called flavor. It makes sense to be stunned after literally having a dude running through you at the speed of lightning. Also just because *you* have an issue with it, doesn't mean it's broken. Who would of thunk it.

    If anything, my friend, things deserved to be buffed, not nerfed. Pretty sure everyone is tired of abilities being randomly nerfed because random people on the forums are complaining again.

    I agree in premise but dev's buffing things like streak and dizzy that are then abused with little to no counter play is bad design and not fun. Surely you can see both sides of this argument right??
