    This ability is a teleport skill, it is nothing like streak

    It is akin to the Arcanist's Teleport skill.

    Im on PTS right now and can tell you that this skill is... trash :lol: It works when it wants, it is ground target with short range, I can literally roll dodge faster to a place than use this skill :disappointed:

    Well in that case I'll reserve judgement on this issue.

    Still not happy that arcanist is gonna be as mobile or probably more mobile than sorcerer though. What is the sorcerer identity supposed to be? Daedric summons and shields? Meh.

    To anyone saying this is a streak. It is not! Try it on PTS or check out YouTube videos. It is slow animation, like reeeeeally sloooooow...

    I actually really like the change. Functions like Streak but with a bit more control, adds much needed life steal to the skill line, and gives options between illusive or blood thirsty.


    Overall... not a bad change for once! Thankyou, ZOS!

    It is actually broken on the PTS, it is probbaly intended to be much faster.

    I think this is intended, it's not a teleport like streak. It's more of a phase shift. If you go into first person, you can see your camera slides from point a to point b along with the animation.

    Streak is a teleport/blink, your camera will change to the new location, the trail we leave behind is shock blast where as the trail for new Mist Form is yourself.

    All in all, I think it's a great skill. If you're expecting it to behave like streak, it doesn't, but it is a lot like mist form in that you can kind of dodge people. It's hard to tell where the player is moving. Like streak, it can get you to the same out of reach locations, just at a slower speed.

    I personally might use the aoe mist form on stam sorc just to have another aoe dot and heal coming in every 20s, rather than a 2nd teleport.

    So between arcanist portal and new mistform why even sorcerer?

    Maybe now we won't see 3498754376578 sorcs in every public place and players will branch out more :D

    Agreed, you're physically moving from point A to point B over instantly teleporting to the spot. This isn't meant to replace Streak's ability to just zip at high speed, but give vampires that more elusive playstyle we so craved but was problematic due to how the ability worked in the past.

    After testing in PTS, I'm no longer that worried about the mistform change; it's approximately 2/3 the speed of streak in our side-by-side testing, and casting other skills in between casts is much slower. Although it DOES proc strike from the shadows, it can be interrupted by any form of CC mid-cast. Sorcs still hold their superiority over vamp in mobility, despite the relatively nice buffs that mistform gives when exiting it.

    yes, now instead of sorcs, the weakest and rarest class in the game, which is like 1 from every 20 players out there (~80% of population are just dk/warden/nb), we will see even more those op ones
