What is this stealth nerf? Nothing on any patch notes went from effecting 11 to 3.. killed the set before it even got released so now only useful in dungeons and arenas eyji54k0puco.jpg

    PvP baby giggles aside, why nerf a trial set before it is even used in a trail.

    @ZOS_GinaBruno can we get an answer to why sets like this get stealth nerfs thats not included in pts notes that kills this set before it even gets used? Even in four man content there are better options to run at this point. This set would of been used on tanks in any scenario before now its just not worth it over other sets

    ZOS' pattern is really becoming clear at this point - they're using shady stealth nerfs to avoid backlash when changing popular sets.

    The set has been dumpster'd for anything other than dungeon runs and it absolutely demands an explanation.

    Even in dungeons and arenas (when doing 3 dps) olorime is a better option for the tank or pa or in most cases the tank will be wearing pa and olo even when not doing 3 dps there are far better support sets to be ran after this stealth nerf

    I agree with what's mentioned above - @ZOS_GinaBruno : why are these things not announced in our natch potes? Not a minor oversight I'd say.

    Replies like this are the reason I sometimes hope that ESO's PVP just hecking dies in the throes of agony already.

    Good, it was pretty much a set in PvP for ball groups and zergs. Anything that disproportionately boosts zergs in PvP deserves a nerf.

    Counter argument would of been an actual good set in pve trials but now it's dead and will probly never be used when there are better sets than it at this point like arkasis... it generates more ult at this point than drakes rush

    Wow, the one promising change that I was looking forward to seeing come out of this next patch for tanks... and they dumpster it before it even made it to the last PTS cycle. And with a stealth nerf too, of course. With the increases to base HP for DPS and healers, I was thinking about dropping Ebon in favor of something granting a more tangible bonus to group members, and this seemed to fit that niche perfectly. Didn't even seem all that strong, it was equivalent to 3 ult/1.5s with 12s/18s uptime, or about 1.33 ult/s for group members. I really should have expected that ZOS wouldn't actually let something nice for tanks slip through the cracks for once.

    Wasn't that set going to be one of the only useful things to bother with in the upcoming patch? I guess there's no reason to run the new dungeons now.

    Imagine thinking this set is bad after the deserved ninja rework. I'd even argue it's still too strong due to the fact that having a 66% uptime on major heroism is absolutely ridiculously strong in any given context, be it PvP or PvE.

    Only if you invest fully in potion CD(30 s). If you have 33 sec CD on potion it generates appx the same amount. They are pretty similar, both have advantages (ark - range and greater potential, rush - decisive trait synergy and no need to adjust the build) and disadvantages (ark - use of potion on CD and build restrictive, rush - range and lesser potential)

    That nerf, however, is sad, because I think it would be better to have something for 4+man environment, too, since now we are stuck with more or less the same 2 sets. So the change in the direction of uptime nerf would be better than nerfing the target cap, but what can we do :).

    How is it still too strong?
    You get less ulti than with arkasis and even arkasis has only been used when it worked out of combat.
    Before the nerf it was a decent option for the Offtank, but now it's just an addition to the sticker book.

    Bad for trials and for dungeons you got much better sets.

    Pls zos revert this change and instead increase cooldown or change the range of this set. In current state it is useless junk

    I was really looking forward to this set as a new trial tank. It would have given me the perfect opportunity to relax a bit more and learn mechanics instead of having so much more to learn at the same time.

    Seriously. It was perfect for PVE.
    When are you going to introduce pvp only gear and stop nerfing stuff because they happen to be to good inside pvp???

    This system with sets between pve and pvp is only ruining stuff for both sides.

    So then Wardens having almost 100% uptime of major heroism in pvp against any opponent who uses ranged attacks is too strong as well.

    All they had to do is add these 6 magic words to the tool tip and all would be fine: "while in a dungeon or trial"
