So overdue. Thanks ZOS.

So what was the change to undeath exactly?

And now you will find players will still be extremely tanky and Undeath was never the reason for it.

Yes, finally. Thank you

Meanwhile....

Werewolf:
- Fixed an issue where some passives could be gained in Werewolf form when they should be disabled.

Roar:
- Deafening Roar (morph): Fixed an issue where this morph’s taunt could apply to multiple targets at once.

So... they somehow found a way to nerf werewolf. It is a meme at this point lol

Undeath was most definitely one of the reasons for it. I've PvP'd a good measure both with and without Undeath on the same characters and you notice that extra survivability when you're low health.

When players were low health that is when you were supposed to use an execute skill.

Except undeath was active at any health percentage less than 100%. At 50% health it was still 15% mitigation - stronger than Major and Minor Protection combined (14.5% mitigation).

75% health was 8% mitigation. Even 90% health gave you a cool 3% mitigation, almost as much as Minor Protection and equivalent to slotting Deaden Pain/Potency on Necro.

Oh, did I mention there's literally no way to counter Undeath's mitigation? No pen, no debuff, just gotta deal with it.

Undeath was undeniably overtuned. Yes, players are still going to be tanky, as shields are grossly overperforming right now and nothing was done to address that. Undeath still needed a nerf though.

the bonus is much lower

it went from 15/30% to 5/10%

or in other words, a 66% decrease in effectiveness

And you don't need stage 3 anymore. This passive is active with stage 1
