Heavy attack Change?

Tanis-Stormbinder · February 2021

With Dual wield (daggers) becoming viable for magic builds during update 29, should the way heavy attack restore resources change? Heavy attacks restore the greatest base resource instead of just Stamina. Yours thoughts.

I think that a heavy attack should basically waste resources, not restore them. In any case, you can't be a mage with a bow, because the bow uses stamina skills.

Sword and shield uses stamina skills but it doesn't stop me from slotting Invasion on my magsorc every once in a while.

I think that would be a good candidate for a CP passive. Spend 50 points and make all heavy attacks return magicka.

Mages in this game can cast spells with stamina. You can be mage with bow. Bow/bow stamcro is perfectly fine example.

Ideally as melee weapon changes introduces more applications to use melee weapons on magic builds; it would be ideal to regain the highest of the two resource pools when you do a heavy attack. I disagree with the CP suggestion, since it's unnecessary overhead that is one-sided to magic builds.
