    I’m not one to scream Nerf. Ever. But if you come to this post and say nothing is wrong with Stamcro “overperformjng” then You are part of the problem. I mean just look at the meta for them. Potato plus more reduction plus more reduction blast bones, coloassas then yard, synergy boom. Player(s) dead. I rolled a stamcro to learn it better to defeat them. What I learned was they are ridiculously survivable, tanky, dope heals and a combo that wreks. All the player has to do as a stam cyro is survive get ult and deliver the set up. Harmony isn’t helping it’s making it worse in other cases. So please. Be honest when having a discussion about a class.

    Always the same. People are only too happy to complain about anything that kills them demanding "balance", but God forbid when that same balance argument coming looking for their class abilities. Then there is no end to the wailing, and pulling-out-hair on forums.

    Morale of the story?

    "If you do not like seeing nerfs to your class, then don't go around call for nerfs on others."
    Well my class took the nerf hammer and just when I thought zos was finished nerf stamblade they decided to get in there car run it over and reverse on my class so yup I definitely have a right to complain about broken things lol 😂

    Gosh don't let me stop you. Whats after Blighted Blastbones, I'm curious?

    Call me suspicious that's all. I can't imagine that there is a army of Blighted Blastbones users out there, which leaves me to probable cause a.k.a you died to one, a few, many.. who knows.

    I have been in Cyrodiil a few times and seen 99.9% of the better players brush off Blastbones like it was a gnat - still sustain as though they were immortal, and somehow find the reserves to hit like a freight train while tanking 8-10 people.

    But yeah, those Blastbones.. those 5secs .. complete game changer.
    Yes well I don’t see a stamblade shrugging any kind of damage off unless there built for being tanky unfortunately unlike the other classes stamblade can’t do that and keep enough damage to handle good players lol and I can kill stamcros. Reason why zos remove major defile from incap was because many hated it said major defile op but you think major defile on an aoe that’s spammable balance 🤔 ok cool 🤣🤣🤣

    Even better post patch when BB still tracks and hits you when cloaked!

    I do believe the stam morph needs rework but dont spread misinformation like this.Blastbone doesnt actively track cloaked players even if you can see them with detection potion/poison.
    It does however still hit you if you cloak while its leaping and thats okay compared to what other class' delayed burst skills can do. Curse and Backlash is guaranteed to hit you from 41 meters


    Edit: An idea about balancing the skill is to have defile apply for 2 seconds + 2 seconds for each enemy hit



    BB hits if it is cast before a players goes into cloak, i do it and have it done. that is the information im spreading. as it is true

    I didn’t say nerf it. I said it is over performing. It needs to be balanced. Shoot a lot of classes need to get balanced including night blades. NB are underperforming. I never said how to do it bc honestly I don’t know how too.

    Oh and @stamcro I kno You haven’t been on the game or forums as long as some but yeh. Look at my history. I don’t ask for nerfs. If you are aggravated that people are calling out up ur class that is understandable. But don’t act like the class is balanced bc it isn’t.

    Heck man. I main a mdk. People were asking to buff them and I wasn’t. If the game is gonna be enjoyable for all with great fights against players classes need to be balanced.

    All I’m saying is that there are other things that need to be worked on like actual performance rather then classes that people “ think” are over performing.

    Wish Zos would just go and unplug pvp from the rest of the game. It is without a doubt the cause of 100% of the problems this game faces. Put it in a sandbox and be done with it. Why the rest of the community has to suffer the whims of a handful of people God only knows.

    Fair point to be made for sure on current issues with the games state of play. It is hard for anyone to play in lag or where skills do not go off.

    I could not agree more, Major Defile should not be on a spammable let alone a ranged aoe with high damage output, so many things are out of whack with necro.

    Trying to understand why many are now claiming it, a delayed burst ability to be a spammable now...
    Jabs, Snipe, Crystal Blast and morphs, Skull, dive etc... are spammable.

    Also... what is your idea on how to fix it? At least the OP made an attempt, so did others on trying to bring it in line. Or just gonna stick with "it's out of whack"?

    Personally, if I was having that much of an issue with Bone Daddy Bomber. I'd lay out complaint, provides detail of encounter, what I was running, what others were running, video if availible / brief description / summery and jump right into suggestion while making an attempt to not degrade or belittle others for liking the class that was causing me / my group issues... Easier said then done I know, and I failed at this already :smiley: Anyboo...

    Blighted Blastbones

    Target: Enemy
    Range: Maximum range: 28 meters, Radius: 6 meters
    Cost: 2937 Stamina

    Skill description
    Summon a decaying skeleton from the ground after 2.5 seconds. The skeleton runs after the target and explodes when it gets close to them, dealing 2009 Disease Damage to all enemies nearby. Creates a corpse on death.

    New effect
    Converts into a Stamina ability and deals Disease Damage. Increases Damage by 5, 10 and 15% per corpse near your target (up to three maximum) applying Major Defile to them for 2.5 seconds, reducing their healing received and Health Recovery by 15% Reduces healing received on enemies hit after 3rd corpse is consumed upon explosion.


    Just my opinion on it though. Far easier to be apart of the drama and degrade, call out, belittle and shame Stamina Necros instead of applying logic and critical thinking. Cause it's not just a game, one's personal livelihood, reputation and honor are at risk here, and it is affecting them in the real world.

    Thousands of players is a handful? Ok. And if they got rid of defile on it , it wouldn't effect pve at all.

    @Taktak doesn't matter either way, just an idea tossed out there so others can build upon or from. A single idea isnt going to influence the change those here want. They have to sit together and collaborate more.

    95% of those thousands of players are there to get their skill points and get out. Don't delude yourself.

    If you think npcs are incapable of heals in ESO, I'm sorry I can't help you with that.

    Run a stamcro and see how many actual class skills get used over weapon skills. The defile on blastbones is not a big deal. Biased? Yes. Truth? Yes.

    ZOS won't nerf it because some players crutching on it want to defend it. Put it in the same bin as BRP DW. What ZOS obviously wants is for everyone to run ultra damage-reduction builds. It can't get any more obvious...

    Wrong. What ZOS wants is for everyone to buy the Chapter!!!
