Snipe is ruining entire Battle Ground matches
-
MickeyBN✭✭✭✭I wouldn’t be making the argument that Snipers are the worst because they contribute nothing to the team.
Not everyone cares about the team, or winning for that matter. We all get enjoyment out of the game in different ways, and for some people 2 shotting people from stealth is hella fun.
Personally I find it boring as hell! but to each their own.If you detest Sniping so much adjust your build to cope with it better, become a stage 4 Vamp so you can stealth up to a Sniper and give them a nice tap on the shoulder.Vaelerys Nightborn - Bosmer Nightblade PC NA0 -
Khatou✭✭✭✭the archer type nightblade are not all no-team play, some are looking to play team-play, it's just that the game tries to make NB be no-teamplay, 3/4 of the players whether it's NB, DK, templar sorcerer, warden or Necro, most are looking to play the kikoo DPS instead of playing the goal and it's more and more noticeable0 -
pauld1_ESO✭✭✭✭Amazes me with all the crap I die to in BGs snipe is the least of my concerns. So funny how regardless of what the MMO is people just can't stand dying to archers/stealth.1

For all that skill, I get to find 6k, 8k, and 10k snipes in my death recap when sometimes I didn't even know I was being hit.
I can barely do 5k dmg on my snipe.
What built do you need to run to do 10k dmg on snipe.
NB + Divines + Shimmering Frenzy + Spriggans + The Shadow mundus + ???0 -

snipe doesnt kill battle grounds snipe kills unexpierenced players (short noo*s)
This is always the dumbest argument - the whole “It’ll only kill you if you’re not good.”
If it’s only one or 2 players using that broken playstyle, maybe.
My issue lately is a majority of BGs death match lobbies have 4 or more players running that exact same build. So there isn’t any amount of shields, dodge rolls, or blocking to negate getting hit by 4 different players in stealth just spamming the same ability over and over and it hitting you at once.
Add the garbage state this game is in on console and you literally see 1 single arrow animation and you’re dead but the recap shows a lot more.
At least on PS4, a majority of matches feels like trying to walk through raindrops without getting wet and it’s a downpour or being blindfolded and told to run across a gun range without taking a bullet. It takes all the fun and skill out when all you run into are matches that are loaded with NB snipe spammers.2 -
ImSoPro✭✭✭Hunt them down and exterminate them like the vermin they are. It’s the only way. They’re always too focused on what’s in front of them I sneak up and interrupt with crushing shock and burst them into oblivion and dance on their corpse. Death to all snipe spammers.

✭✭✭✭✭The Desync is sooooo infuriating, they should just say its a "feature" at least.... Freaking hate that desync3 -
Recapitated✭✭✭✭Desync aside, if you struggle to notice when you're getting sniped consider finding this line in your UserSettings file and changing this line:SET DirectionalDamageIndicatorVisibleInThirdPerson "1"
"1" activates the setting, default is 0. Make a backup copy of your file before you change anything. It displays a red indicator similar to this:
IMO Snipe spammers are not bad on their own, but what annoys me mainly is when I'm in a bad but salvageable position trying to escape orange then a purple sniper lands one or two hits that wind up giving the orange the kill.Edited by Recapitated on October 11, 2020 8:28PM1 -

Agreed. I don't normally see all that many Snipe spammers in BGs, but actually got desync'd twice last night.Waffennacht wrote: »The Desync is sooooo infuriating, they should just say its a "feature" at least.... Freaking hate that desync0 -

Right? Like, I'm thinking I can make a comeback against someone and then suddenly I fall over dead. It turns out a snipe from the third team hit me and put me in execute range.0 -

✭✭✭✭✭The stun from stealth/sneak when using snipe needs to go. Until ZOS can fix the abuse and bugs this skill comes with, you shouldn't be able to stun with snipe when used from stealth.0
