Leave false god as it is?

Keep the old set bonuses for the normal and perfected Version? Also maybe post a reason why Yes or No. Please provide constructive Feedback.

Edit:This is my opinion. I voted yes because it makes no sense to take sth away from a set and compare the perfected version to a non perfected set that drops in normal. They could just make a perf version of the stam set instead of nerfing a hard and annoying to get set like false god.

Edit 2:
Voting No means not only that you want it nerfed but maybe changed in another way.
Was Not smart enough to add a 3rd poll for this :sweat_smile:

    It’s a really good set, but it’s not the highest dps set or something. It’s a really good set to aspire to get, to grind for, and it ups the floor. Just give VO a perfected version, only dropping on last boss of vet Craglorn trials. Do something with the other stam set they named the unperfected version of VO, and honestly everyone is happy.

    Add an extra challenge to Craglorn trials, like a hidden boss, and I like this idea.

    No, as soon as you are doing that, you have to give all trials perfected versions. Beside that, nobody really cares about VO anyway, because stam doesn't have sustain issues.
    FGD is a new set - there is a perfected version, that needs an additional bonus, of course. That's enough to leave the set like it is.

    Give VO perfected and then swap the sets for people. Since Normal/Perfected exists in one form already I see no reason not too. Then swap loot tables to match.

    HoF too IIRC. This is the only thing that would irk me. If they swap HoF loot make new people farm it <Since its better on different classes> then 6 months later add perfected lol.

    Yes and no. Leave the 8% cost reduction, but get rid of the major expedition and magicka recovery upon enemy death. Keep the magicka bonus for the perfected version. This would get rid of a couple of extra stats which seems to bother some people. Also, it would keep most of the important stats, and make the perfected version worth the trouble of farming, keeping VSS relevant.

    The logic behind the nerf doesn't match the gameplay effort. If the real reason behind this is to go after PFG because it's BiS for mag in pretty much all content then they need to instead look at adjusting sustain to make it more reasonable. There are more powerful sets which is why people don't parse with PFG but in content they are not practical especially since bfb is getting destroyed which made sustain possible at the cost of range and some player risk....

    Edit: typo

    I agree which is why I have tried going to every thread about this topic and mention that the comparison between VO and perfected false gods doesn't make sense. The base premise that VO is perfected quick serpent seems silly just considering that VO drops from all 3 crags on normal and quick serpent only drops from one of the crag trials. The comparison seems like a justification to punish a BiS gear set instead of a proper comparison of gear power levels.

    Don't touch the False God Devotion set, because False God Devotion for magicka users works exactly the same as Vicous Ophidian for stamina users. Just add Perfected sets for all the Craglorn trial (and all the other trials that are missing those perfected sets on veteran mode). It can be done because if you can add Perfected Arena weapons in the last chapter, you can also add Perfected Craglon Trials gear in the next DLC. 3 years (I think) after adding the first perfected gear in veteran trials it is about time to do so.

    Nobody ? I like the VO set and still use it, and I think there are more who do, so do not speak for others.
    And I think that 3 years after adding perfected gear on veteran mode of the new trials it is about time that the older trials get perfected gear on veteran mode too (and while doing that, add the slayer buffs to the sets that dont have it yet, like the Advancing Yokeda set).

    You use it in trials? - probably not. And for normal dungeons, it doesn't really matter, if you have 1000 more stamina or not, so almost nobody would start farming a perfected version because of that.

    Top end vet trials will run whatever is the META for the current patch. It has ONLY been a magicka meta for Greymoor simply because of Thrassians and BFB. The patch before and likely the patch after will see the return of stamina meta.

    On some characters, I still do. I know it isn't the best set, but I don't care, I like the way it works. I play the game how I want to play it to have fun, not how others want me to play it without having fun. But if 1.000 or so more stamina does not really matter, I think you can also say that it also applies for magicka and heal;th, which means all the perfected gear can be stripped of these buffs, just to level all these sets. No more farming for Perfected False God, Perfected Master Architect, Perfected Yolnahkriin and whatever Perfected sets there are.

    In the end, I think we can agree we disagree on the subject :-)

    I've thought about it some more, and my first point of it not being the highest DPS set still stands. Where this set is good however, is that it provides infinite sustain for any fight with adds. That makes it a no-brainer for for example Maelstrom. Maybe the best way to nerf it is to remove the magicka gain on dying enemies. Maybe change the cost reduction to 7% (which is the same as the Breton race) as well, but overall it's a really well-rounded set, of which there are not many. With the changes to Magnus' Gift (15% chance of not spending magicka on a ability!!), this set definitely isn't the one go-to sustain set anymore.

    Another change that can go hand-in-hand with keeping False God's Devotion the same, is changing the magicka recovery bonuses of Magnus' Gift and The Seducer sets to spell damage/max magicka/spell crit. This way there will be more well-rounded sets, and the choice becomes less obvious and more dependent on the content.

    This should not be surprising to the community though.
    META is math, and math never fails.
    But META is also relegated to perfectionists and overachievers, if only to satisfy their own standards for accomplishment.

    Everyone needs to remember that this is a game, and the sole purpose of any game is to win.
    The old catch-phrase "It's not whether you win or lose but how you play the game." is just lip-service for the losers; a deliberate deceit designed to promote continued play, regardless of the likelihood of victory.

    Although standards for victory may vary among participants, objective "success" is established by the game-masters (designers), and within the boundaries of the playing field (rules), anything which permits success is valid.
    Very few participants play games fully expecting to lose, and even fewer play games with the deliberate intention to do so repeatedly.

    Just combine the 5pc bonus to be 258 Spell Damage + 8% Cost Reduction on PFGD or 129 Spell Damage + 8% Cost Reduction on FGD. I wasn’t aware that the number of lines of text was bothering anyone, but this would solve the problem.
