    Is anyone else getting a weird swishing sound when you go to a crafting table and leave one? Annoying sound when doing lots of daily writs.

    Was Caluurion's nerfed previous to U35? I didn't see a mention of it in today's U35 patch notes. Thanks

    It's really good. It reeled in high end damage to lower the ceiling, and buffed the low end to raise the floor. accessibility.

    That is not even close to the truth. Yes high end dropped but the floor did as well.

    My magden lost about 30% dps if you take away the added buffs to the dummy. Really depressing

    very crashy today, don't even have to be doing anything and the game vomits up the 'stopped working' dialogue or simply freezes and does the ctd drill.

    not impressed with the damage changes, either.

    lowered the ceiling and then burned the floor away. :/

    My damage has noticeably reduced, and I only pulled about 25k before this update. I'm a casual player that the patch was supposed to 'help', but my damage is now under 20k, and killing normal enemies takes noticeably longer. The patch has failed, and now I really will never be able to do any veteran content or arenas.

    I'm still patching but I'll try using Blazing Spear as spammable first. If it turns out to be too viable though, I'm almost certain that it will be nerfed in November.

    Ty for the advice but I am a cranky old and very stubborn lady.

    Am fed up with all the latest changes and direction of the game.

    Am going elsewhere, just thought I would come here and see what people say.

    I am a Templar I still use magicka and still wearing the same armor I had after no-proc.

    I am obsolete.

    I am also a cranky old lady! LOL Game is not even loading now, after attempting to repair 3 times, and a reinstall. "Fatal Error 11"

    I don't use combat dummies or anything, so I can only say how combat in overland feels after the changes.

    My bow/bow warden: didn't notice much of a difference. Takes about the same amount of time to kill mobs. Maybe a tad longer, but not enough to get excited about.

    My stamina templar: Same. I play 100% in first person but switched to third to check out the new jabs animation everyone is complaining about. Didn't really see a problem with it, but as I said, I don't play in third person.

    I'll try my frost warden later.

    It didn't feel that my DPS had increased in any way. It's the same or a tad lower.

    Is appears that the 3s/9s change to shalks didn't go through. Mine are still firing at 3s/3s and the tooltip says the same. I use Subterranean Assault. I'm glad they decided to ditch the change.

    Since 6 out of my 12 characters are Templars, I was nervous logging in today - so here is my experience having played a couple of hours:

    First, I happen to be one of the lucky players who don't mind the new Jabs animation, thankfully! Secondly, while single target damage is down, the increased area effect dmg on Biting Jabs meant groups of mobs were dying faster then ever, and it felt smooth. Thirdly, every tick on a Lightning Staff is increased by Empower, not just the final, so Lightning Staff dmg saw an increase in output according to my tests. Finally, I divide my time between PvP and Solo PvE so I will have to let high end raiders comment on that aspect.

    My Personal Take: Doomsday Diverted (hopefully indefinitely)!

    Where do you see buffs to the low end in all of the U35 changes, outside of the statement of intent? Looking for specifics.

    I assumed it to be a sarcastic post.

    Clearly "low end" players, who will have far more difficulty adapting to the losses in damage and healing, are more affected by the blanket nerfs than "high end" players.

    Yeah, it's a horror show out there for Wardens.

    Can safely put the class on the shelf for the next 6-12 months because they won't get around to fixing them before then.

    Warden is my PvP main as well and maybe I'll check back in 2023 if it can be used again.

    In short, I hate this patch even more than I thought I would. The damage nerf is horrible. Sorcerer feels horrible to play with how essential it is now needing to micromanage Daedric Prey. None of the timings on anything line up properly so any rotation is a chore. I still hate needing to double bar pets but any build without them is 100x worse than with them so back to the Daedric prey [snip]. Frankly, I want to quit.

    First impressions are pretty bad, and that's being kind. I just hope I can still compete due to everyone else being downgraded equally hard.

    I am a casual mediocre Magcro who pulls about 40k on training dummy. I haven’t really noticed much change to DPS. It feels a bit slower waiting for DOTs. I am okay with it. Not excited one way or the other and for the content I do it is fine.

    did a random normal. as a Breton magDK (PvP build). Lair of Maarselok. couldn't use my main spammable (Molten Whip) after 10-15 seconds. was out of Stamina. so i had to DW HA a couple of times. an awesome experience, truly. i can't wait until i get stunned or immobilised in PvP and will either
    • not be able to break free, as i have spent most of my Stamina using my main source of damage
    • be able to break free but no longer be able to use my main source of damage, as i have no more Stamina
    yeah, a great update, inedeed..

    For comparison with a stamDK... I just did a random normal, City of Ash 1.

    I definitely felt less powerful, but somehow it felt easier. Maybe because I had swapped in burning embers for venomous claw to get a better combo with molten whip (replacing noxious breath). Those changes reduced the pressure on my stam (36k) and didn't really stress my magica reserve (only 13k), and gave a heal. Having said that I was never pressurized enough to require any panic heals, which would need a 4k reserve. Though I did keep up molten weapons and flames.

    And molten whip was critting for over 20k, which was nice:)

    Won't really know until I run some harder content though...

    Many of us took a break after completing VMA hundreds of times to get a minor version of its weapons, that was pre-Skyrim?

    Be prepared to be called a fake heals or pretend healer using the same heals as before, lol
    Haven't tried my tank or dps yet, but presuming the same with the nerfs. It's kind of funny when you think about it :smile:

    The vMA buff is supposed to be fixed in the week of September 4th patch at least. So we only have to live with that oversight for a couple weeks. Doesn't make the rest of this horrible patch any better though.

    My jabs feel like I am slapping people with a pool noodle. I saw a build that uses Spearshards as a spammable for magplars. It's making me wish ZOS had pulled the emergency breaks on the update and only released the dungeon without the balance patch.

    My DPS is down 20-25%

    And I was never a top DPSer. I was at best "adequate" at 55k burst 45k sustained, now 45/35.

    I seriously don't know if I even have the energy to redo everything from scratch to try to get even 10% of that back or not. This is so tiring!!

    (Edit) I'd also like to mention that I am somewhat of a Whale in this game. I like collecting houses, mounts and pets and this update is seriously jeopardizing my spending any more money on this game!

    I have written this already maybe in other forums.

    People are not tired because of changes.

    People are tired because their projects are scrapped and don't want to be degraded or abandon a project because they need new gear or they just golden out ironblood for example.

    I finished my blood moon setup to spam light attacks on my 1h build just for fun. The next day they shared the first pts update.

    Since then I just login take Endeavors and I have no desire to continue. Sad.
