Mother Ciannait – Monster Mask (Is that supposed to be 30,000?)

Mother Ciannait – Monster Mask
1 – Adds 1096 Maximum Magicka
2 – While in combat, casting an ability with a cast time or channeling an ability grants you a damage shield that absorbs 3000 damage for 10 seconds. This effect can occur once every 10 seconds.
So this Monster Mask allows you to negate a really weak attack (3000 points of damage) once every 10 seconds IF you're casting or channeling? Am I missing something here? This seems pretty underwhelming for a Monster set.

I mean- we literally kill all these enemies in a dungeon, face off a huge dungeon boss, and chop off her head/shoulder so that we can use it as armor on the battlefield... only to fend off two light attacks every 10 seconds?Want to enjoy the game more?

✭✭✭✭✭I really don't think the person that designed this set even knows what Iceheart is. If they did, they would have reevaluated this particular set.
Iceheart is basically procced on cooldown and has a 6 second cooldown and duration (instead of 10) deals aoe damage in addition to the shield and also has a larger shield size. I haven't seen this new dungeon yet, but I'll assume that Iceheart will also be easier to farm than a vet DLC dungeon.
Someone describe to me the niche, edge case scenario where this new set is better than Iceheart.Edited by redspecter23 on January 20, 2020 9:00PM2 -

Speaking of Iceheart, can we have it bumped to 10k damage absorbed since its a "prettier number?" 9,977 is such an obtuse number.PC - NACP 1125

There is no such scenario, this is most probably mistype, otherwise set is utter trash, basically one of the worst if not worst monster helm in the game.0 -

I'm trying to think of the cast/channeled ability that would proc this, too. Um... maybe a Templar jabs or dark flare? Sorc casting Dark Exchange or perhaps hard-casting frags?

YAAAASSSS! While I meditate in the midst of battle- I can stop a light attack or two. I just need to stop fighting/tanking every 10 seconds to meditate. Whew! Thank goodness it'll save me less than a heavy attack's worth of damage. lolWant to enjoy the game more? Try both PvP (crybabies) and PvE (carebears).

✭✭✭Ironically, if it IS a typo (and it's supposed to say 30,000 damage for 10 seconds) it would be ridiculously OP on a MagPlar. Can you imagine an Altmer MagPlar channeling Puncturing Sweep through crowds?
5% damage reduction from Altmer passive
8% damage reduction from Spear Wall
Heal for 40% of the damage done from Puncturing Sweeps
and a 30,000 point damage absorption while channeling Puncturing Sweeps.

I expect a nerf incoming to iceheart rather then a buff to this set. Hope im wrong though.1 -

✭✭✭✭3k is weak but 30k would be ridiculous.
30k/50%=15000 in pvp that with 10sec cd equal to 1500 heal per sec(rapid regen literally), i.e. twice more than Trollking but have zero group utility unlike trollking i.e. cant multiply amount of heal based on number of allies.
Tbh weird set in any curcimstances.0 -

Lol, just imagine the forum when there are actual 40k shield stack Magsorcs running around in PvP. And as mentioned above, they might not even be the class getting the most out of it.
If they change it to around 15k before Battle Spirit (from 3k or whatever), it would be balanced with other sets IMO. Balanced, strong on several builds, and boring. Nothing I'd drop my Bloodspawn for.Edited by Bergzorn on January 20, 2020 10:37PMno CP PvP PC/EU

Im really hopping that when i get to finally log into PTS there is gonna be something else attached to this set that was left out of the patch notes.1 -
