Elusive Mist Should Give Major and Minor Expedition

Elusive mist isn't very elusive to be honest. Can't really use it to get away since all a person would have to do is give themselves Major Expedition and now they can outrun you and continue dealing damage to you. Giving the mistform Major and Minor Expedition would at least allow this form to outrun someone with no speed buffs and sprinting after you on foot.

✭✭✭✭✭It is not supposed to be a get out of jail card. Elusive Mist is the last vampire skill that needs any buff.7 -

✭✭✭✭✭Reason why I say this is because it gets outclassed by things like Race Against Time which can serve as a much better escape tool. Then again I can see where you're coming from where it also negates 75% of damage and gives CC immunity. Sadly anybody can outrun it right now which is why I though adding Minor Expedition would help. Still can't outrun someone using Major Expedition + Sprint but it would add just a little bit of enough speed to make it slightly better than sprinting.PC NA - Ceyanna Ashton - Breton Vampire MagDK0 -

✭✭✭✭✭Not a major one at least, which is why I suggested the idea, but if you all say this is a bad idea then I won't argue it.PC NA - Ceyanna Ashton - Breton Vampire MagDK0 -
Mortiis13✭✭✭✭It's more for repositioning or an alternative burst "block" when an escape tool I think.

✭✭You think elusive mist needs a buff because you claim that all someone has to do is use major expedition?
Really? I don't even run major expedition in PvP.
Running major expedition is a build choice that players that use it have to sacrifice a slot for or potion. Same thing you did when you slotted elusive mist, so why should elusive mist outclass any other skill slot that provides speed as a secondary buff?0 -

You can get major expedition as a passive.... That is if you use a bow on one of your bars....0 -

Again, build choice, so it's fair
I'd say slotting a weapon like resto stave or bow just to get one skill or passive is a bigger investment than slotting a skill, but maybe that is just me. 0 -

It used to give a 70% movespeed increase.
And what is the point of a morph that is literally for movement if it isn't faster than sprinting? The ability does nothing else that the base version doesn't.Edited by SlimeBro1 on July 26, 2020 4:53AM3 -

At least with minor expedition added on it'd make a difference.1 -

Elusive mist also provides immunity to all disabling and immobilization effects. Sprint and, afaik, no other source of major expedition provide such immunity.0 -
SlimeBro1✭✭✭✭New Mist is perfect as is. No need for any changes whatsoever.
No it isn't.
Also funny, they didn't change a thing about mist form except for the toggle cost.
EXPLAIN: What do you lose by elusive mist being made slightly better? Aside from a hit to your very fragile ego.Edited by SlimeBro1 on July 26, 2020 8:48PM0 -

✭✭✭✭✭Been thinking for a bit and maybe they could just put Minor Expedition on the base Mistform morph? That way Blood Mist gets it to?PC NA - Ceyanna Ashton - Breton Vampire MagDK0 -

✭✭✭✭✭I would like this change as the morph is highly underwhelming indeed.
I have several vampire characters and I have dropped the new Mist for RAT on every single one of them. It is simply the superior skill.
Mist has an additional drawback of being singularly unreliable and is prone to randomly de-misting you during combat, usually to imminent demise.
Nowadays, I am RAT'ing around freely, able to stack Sprint and Major Expedition for much greater mobility and enjoying my Minor Force and snare immunity.
The only real use for Mist is entering a red-hot keep in Cyrdoiil. In every other scenario, RAT has it beat. And that is simply far too niche to justify a slot on my bars.1 -

I'd trade the current mist form with a version that has a limited duration and actually turns you into something untargetable as logic would suggest.0 -

✭✭✭You can get extra speed from other sources like swift jewelery, wild hunt ring, marauders set, steed mundus etc.
All mist needs is bug fixes, since it can fail to activate far too often.0
