Absurd PvP stealth gank build with subclassing

✭MGGA - Make Ganking Great Again
Sorry you almost got bursted while you were 15x’ing.
Ganking has been nerfed to oblivion cause everyone is a burst tank healbot now. Good for “redacted stealth zergling” for putting more effort into his/her playstyle than running the oh so boring meta. We need more players like this, not more “omg my meta bubble almost got bursted”.
Sorry, you got the numbers wrong. There were 60+ ad and 15 EP and i was on the EP side. In fact there were about 10 ad right around me and no other EP, I think.
So "redacted stealth zergling" was hidden somewhere in a mass of people.
Also I was trying to run 37k health, looks like big mistake, lol.
In the old days ganking was much more high risk , high reward since it was melee and you had to be really squishy to get the huge numbers. This huge damage ranged gank from stealth , while hiding in the zerg, is a completely different matter. But if thats how you like to play, you go right ahead!
No no, the olden days was popping magelite and sniping, then it was WB>Incap, now it’s back to range but you actually need proc sets to kill.
They’ve gutted the playstyle.
And 15v60 likely means you were trying to follow a ballgroup in a turn and burn 37k hp build. Credit still goes to the theorycrafting zergling for trying to gank someone with 37k hp."IMO"Aldmeri Dominion1 Nightblade - 1 Templar - 7 Hybrid Mutt Abominations0 -

✭As predicted, many many people are running this crutch proc build now
Now getting hit by 3 or 4 people using this from the middle of the zerg = insta death
I can't blame them, ZOS made this possible with subclass4 GOs, and General, and bunches of prefects etc-- all classes...I've wasted a lot of time in PVP over the last 8 years0 -

It's been broken for years. Mostly crutch players use it. Since the devs won't look at the set, it's a cheap win.
The players and the devs know it's broken, it's been over-reported.Edited by StihlReign on January 23, 2026 5:14PM"O divine art of subtlety and secrecy!

True but its much worse now that you can add both recuperative treatise and crystal weapon to the same stealthed attack, due to subclassing4 GOs, and General, and bunches of prefects etc-- all classes...I've wasted a lot of time in PVP over the last 8 years0
